Dan chats with Canadian music journalist Bob Klanac, author of ‘Promo Man: Backstage Tales From the Vinyl Jungle', and that promo man himself, Nick Panaseiko. Bob and Nick share a few stories from the book and Nick's incredible life as a music promoter including: how, as a 17 year old, Nick began booking big name acts such as Gene Pitney; putting a tour together featuring Rush and Kiss; coining the term ‘promo man' for himself and creating his own job; his friendships with famous folks such as Chuck Berry, Domenic Troiano, Ronnie Hawkins, and others; the topless strippers promotion for the Queen song ‘Fat Bottom Girls'; why acclaimed photographer John Rowlands was on hand to capture the pictures showcased in the book, and a few teasers for the many tales from the book including finding drugs for Keith Richards and his crazy afternoon with John Belushi. A must hear conversation, and a must read book that is available @ promomanbook.com

Nick Panaseiko started promoting teen dances in the early 1960s. He eventually worked his way to becoming one of Canada's most prolific record promoters in the golden era of the record business. Nick has promoted records for everyone from Donna Summer, Phil Collins, Kiss to Queen & beyond. His story has been a long time coming & is quite fascinating to say the least. Partnered with photographer to the stars, John Rowlands since 1975 the evidence of his prowess as a top shelf "Promo Man" is abundant. Finally Nick's story is in print as authored by Bob Klanac.Bob is a music journalist who has penned hundreds of music reviews & interviews. He was a juror for the Polaris music prize & is currently a Juno awards juror.In this episode we discussed the making of the new release book "Promo man back stage tales from the vinyl jungle" ....and more!

If you've never heard of Nick Panaseiko, that's entirely understandable. He was a backstage guy, making sure that the act onstage is playing to a full house, making sure their records were on the radio and in record stores.He was a promo man. Kelly Jay of Crowbar referred to the Canadian music industry of the era as a matter of ‘six degrees of Nick Panaseiko'. Taking off from a popular Panasonic ad campaign of the day, legendary rocker Ronnie Hawkins dubbed him, “Nick Panaseiko, a man slightly ahead of his time”. And at his induction into the Jack Richardson Hall of Fame, Alice Cooper, Ronnie Hawkins and Peter Criss of KISS all sent video tributes.“Promo Man” places Nick in the zeitgeist of the music industry in the 60s and 70s and his work with the acts who were - and in some cases still are - the aural soundtrack to our lives. How Nick made his way to the epicenter of the Canadian music industry and made his way out alive is the story of “Promo Man”. It takes the reader from the 17-year-old kid who booked The Supremes to a sold-out show through his success breaking KISS in Canada to his time with Quality Records and WEA in the 70s.While Nick's metier was promoting acts, his other duties as assigned including finding Freddie Mercury and Liberace Toronto gay bars, playing board games with young Marlon Richards, finding cocaine for his father, Keith and Ronnie Wood, having to deal with a racist Bill Cosby, being the de-facto minder for Keith Moon at a party and being an extra in a Van Halen video.This book truly lives in his tales of a breakneck lifestyle, working with and promoting acts including Queen, Liberace, The Cars, Van Halen, and finally The Rolling Stones. This is an insider's look at the freewheeling times of the Canadian music industry as it came into being, told by the consummate insider. Key to the book are the many photographs by acclaimed rock and roll photographer John Rowlands of Nick with artists including Debbie Harry, Donna Summer, KISS, Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Johnny Cash, Liberace, Keith Moon, and Freddie Mercury. The fast pace of the narrative coupled with the photos brings to life a much-mythologized time in popular music.To tell Nick Panaseiko's story is author Bob Klanac, a Canadian music journalist who has penned hundreds of reviews and interviews. Among them: Levon Helm, John Mayer, Garth Hudson, Bill Wyman, Chris Cornell, Johnny Winters and many, many more. He was a juror for the Polaris Music Prize and is currently a member of the Slaight Family Polaris Heritage Prize Jury and a Juno Awards juror.

John Rowlands is a world renowned arts & entertainment photographer, having shot photos for major record labels over the years including pics of the Beatles, Elvis, The Rolling Stones, Leonard Cohen ...among others. Since his retirement, he's suffered a couple of major strokes. The most recent one nearly killed him & he needs our help on his road to recovery. While we did discuss certain parts of his history as "Photographer to the Stars" (something he is reluctant to call himself in spite of his illustrious career shooting the stars) the main reason I'm releasing this episode is to ask you to help John out by contributing to his recovery via the facebook fundraiser in his name. https://www.facebook.com/donate/736986177199992/

John Rowlands works for an "incumbent" but spends much of his time considering the opportunities around insurtech to support Guy Carpenter's work as a broker and as opportunities for Guy Carp's clients.  In May 2017 he joined 800 other insurtech enthusiasts in Amsterdam for the two-day DIA conference.  In this short podcast, he talks through some of the companies he saw.  To keep up to date on the world of insurtech, subscribe to this podcast and sign up to the InsTech London mailing list at www.instech.london

Been crazy busy will come out within week new epsiode july 24 World cup has got in the way but you should know USA played really well,  game of the tournament New episode June 24th         Robert Falcon Scott, CVO (6 June 1868 – c. 29 March 1912) was a Royal Navyofficer and explorer who led two expeditions to the Antarctic regions: theDiscovery Expedition, 1901–04, and the ill-fated Terra Nova Expedition, 1910–13.                                                            Scott, writing his journal in the Cape Evans hut, winter 19112014-06-08   During the research for his dual biography of Scott and Roald Amundsen,[9] polar historian Roland Huntford investigated a possible scandal in Scott's early naval career, related to the period 1889–90 when Scott was a lieutenant on HMS Amphion. According to Huntford, Scott "disappears from naval records" for eight months, from mid-August 1889 until 26 March 1890. Huntford hints at involvement with a married American woman, of cover-up, and protection by senior officers. Biographer David Crane reduces the missing period to eleven weeks,   Popular hero[edit] Discovery returned to Britain in September 1904. The expedition had caught the public imagination, and Scott became a popular hero. He was awarded a cluster of honours and medals, including many from overseas, and was promoted to the rank of captain.[35] He was invited to Balmoral Castle, where King Edward VII promoted him a Commander of the Royal Victorian Order (CVO).[36]   The expedition had both scientific and exploration objectives; the latter included a long journey south, in the direction of the South Pole. This march, undertaken by Scott,Ernest Shackleton and Edward Wilson, took them to a latitude of 82° 17′ S, about 530 miles (850 km) from the pole. A harrowing return journey brought about Shackleton's physical collapse and his early departure from the expedition   Dispute with Shackleton[edit] By early 1906, Scott had sounded out the RGS about the possible funding of a future Antarctic expedition.[39] It was therefore unwelcome news to him that Ernest Shackleton had announced his own plans to travel to Discovery's old McMurdo Sound base and launch a bid for the South Pole from there.[40] Scott claimed, in the first of a series of letters to Shackleton, that the area around McMurdo was his own "field of work" to which he had prior rights until he chose to give them up, and that Shackleton should therefore work from an entirely different area.       Scott's group took this photograph of themselves using a string to operate the shutter on 17 January 1912, the day after they discovered Amundsen had reached the pole first.       Charles Darwin Charles Robert Darwin, FRS (/ˈdɑrwɪn/;[1] 12 February 1809 – 19 April 1882) was an English naturalist and geologist,[2] best known for his contributions to evolutionary theory.[I] He established that all species   ct. 1805 - Dec. 1831:Events leading to the Voyage The Napoleonic Wars South American trade relations The Hydrographic OfficeEarly H.M.S.

Roald Engelbregt Gravning Amundsen (Norwegian: [ˈɾuːɑl ˈɑmʉnsən]; 16 July 1872 – c. 18 June 1928) was a Norwegian explorer of polar regions. He led theAntarctic expedition (1910–12) to become the first men to reach the South Pole in December 1911. In 1926,        Belgian Antarctic Expedition (1897–99) Main article: Belgian Antarctic Expedition Portraits of Roald Amundsen Amundsen joined the Belgian Antarctic Expedition (1897–99) as first mate. This expedition, led by Adrien de Gerlache using the ship the Belgica, became the first expedition to winter in Antarctica.[         David Livingstone  late 19th century in Victorian Britain, Livingstone had a mythic status, which operated on a number of interconnected levels: Protestant missionary martyr, working-class "rags to riches" inspirational story, scientific investigator and explorer, imperial reformer, anti-slavery crusader, and advocate of commercial empire. His fame as an explorer helped drive forward the obsession with discovering the sources of the River Nile   Although Livingstone is known as "Africa's greatest missionary,” he is only recorded as having converted one African: Sechele, who was the chief of the Kwena people of Botswana. Kwena Livingstone's heart was buried under a Mvula tree near the spot where he died, now the site of the Livingstone Memorial.[29]His body together with his journal was carried over a thousand miles by his loyal attendants Chuma and Susi to the coast toBagamoyo, and was returned to Britain for burial. After lying in repose at No.1 Savile Row — then headquarters of the Royal Geographical Society, now the home of bespoke tailors Gieves & Hawkes — his remains were interred at Westminster Abbey, London.[4][30]   Famous people buried at Westminster Abbey Oliver CromwellSoldier and politician died 1658 Sir Isaac NewtonScientist died 1727 Charles DickensNovelist died 1870 Charles DarwinNaturalist died 1882 Sir Isaac NewtonScientist died 1727 Sir Laurence OlivierActor died 1989     Henry Morton Stanley   Sir Henry Morton Stanley GCB, born John Rowlands (28 January 1841 – 10 May 1904), was a Welsh journalist and explorer famous for his exploration of central Africa and his search for missionary and explorer David Livingstone   Henry Morton Stanley's life was a fascinating mix of heroic adventure, journalism and fantasy. He became famous by finding David Livingstone and writing about it in the New York Herald -- even though Livingstone was not lost. Stanley was born in North Wales, an illegitimate child, and baptised as John Rowlands. Aged 17, he ran away to sea and in New Orleans gave himself a new name. During following years, he led a roving life in America, working mostly as a freelance journalist. He fought on both sides in the Civil War.   Henry Stanley with Kalulu, his African personal servant and adopted child. Stanley named the Kalulu Falls after him after the boy died there, aged about 12, when his canoe was washed over the waterfall.

From the early days of Rock n’ Roll, icon Bill Haley and the Comets to the music of today with Rihanna, John Rowlands was there to photograph them all.  At an age when most people were happy to be a fan and enjoy concerts from the audience, John Rowlands was juggling the responsibilities of doing his high school homework and photographing the Beatles, the Rolling Stones and most of the other big musical acts on tour at the time. John and I chat about how at the age of 13, Brenda Lee helped start his photographic career. We also talked about one of his iconic shots, The Thin White Duke, David Bowie in his archer pose, a portrait which Bowie has said is one of his favorites.
