Derek Shulman was at the heart of two great transformations – Simon Dupree & the Big Sound switching to psychedelia, and then sensing the prog-rock trade winds and becoming Gentle Giant. One minute he was singing Kites, the next Pantagruel's Nativity (Gentle Giant's rebooted ‘Playing The Fool: The Complete Live Experience' is just out). After which he was a record label president signing Bon Jovi, Slipknot and Nickelback and rebooting AC/DC and Bad Company. It's a phenomenal story and involves … … three pieces of advice for any band today. … playing the ‘64 circuit in his R&B band the Roadrunners. … the fictitious character he invented as Simon Dupree. … when Dudley Moore was their session pianist. … memories of Marc Bolan (“flat on his back playing guitar”), Tony Iommi, Tony Visconti, Don Arden, Gerry Bron and “the English mob”. … what they borrowed from Traffic in the Great Psychedelic Scare of 1967. … auditioning for George Martin and the lab-coated sound engineers at Abbey Road. … being phoned on a ship returning from Sweden to be told ‘Kites' was Top Twenty and doing Top Of The Pops with Status Quo and the Kinks. … “cars and bags of jewels”: the advantage of being “the darlings of the Isle of Wight Mafia” (which included the Krays). … watching Bowie recording The Man Who Sold The World at Trident. … Elton John's advice that helped form Gentle Giant. … the catastrophic US tour with Black Sabbath (on their “chemical romance”) where the audience threw cherry-bombs onstage: “you learnt how to work a crowd!” … George Underwood's cover for the first Gentle Giant album. … what he saw in Slipknot and why he signed them.

In this episode, we're joined by Christian Dryden of the New York-based band, The Ritualists.Emerging from the underground glam scene in NYC's East Village, The Ritualists have become a key player in the Lower East Side music scene, a community that deeply influenced Dryden's musical vision. Immersed in a world that draws inspiration from icons like The Velvet Underground and New York Dolls, as well as British glam rock, Dryden's sound blends these influences with his own contemporary twist. Reflecting on his musical journey, Dryden shares, "Being inspired by larger-than-life figures like David Bowie, Simon Le Bon, Bryan Ferry, and Marc Bolan was both a gift and a challenge. While it was transformative to imagine these legends as musical soulmates, it also brought a sense of loneliness, as I felt like I was the only one with that vision... until I discovered the venues and clubs of the Lower East Side."MusicThe Ritualists "Wake Up"Additional MusicThe Charms "So PrettyThe Dogmatics "I Love Rock N Roll"Produced and Hosted by Steev Riccardo
È nel pieno di un momento d'oro: il suo nuovo album “Volevo essere un duro” è fuori, il brano sanremese con lo stesso titolo ha incantato il pubblico e ora si prepara a rappresentare l'Italia all'Eurovision Song Contest. Ebbene sì, Lucio Corsi è passato dal BSMT. Lucio ha respirato musica e arte fin da piccolo, tra il ristorante di famiglia e i dipinti di sua madre, che firmano ogni sua copertina. Ha un'anima rock e sognatrice, ispirata da Bowie e Marc Bolan, ma radici ben piantate nel cantautorato italiano. Da “Bestiario Musicale” a “La gente che sogna”, il suo percorso è un viaggio tra fiabe, paesaggi onirici e personaggi stravaganti. A Sanremo 2025 è stata la vera rivelazione e ha conquistato tutti grazie al suo essere totalmente anticonvenzionale. Quella di Lucio Corsi è una storia di immaginazione, musica e libertà ed è stato bello poterla raccontare insieme al BSMT. Una chiacchierata che attraversa la Maremma della sua infanzia, l'incontro con il cantautorato, gli anni alle cantare per strada, la gavetta e le porte sbattute in faccia, fino ad arrivare a Sanremo, all'Eurovision e a un percorso artistico unico, fatto di poesia, colori e sogni ad occhi aperti.

In this episode Danny sits down with music mogul, author, public speaker and filmmaker Simon Napier-Bell, who has managed some of the world´s biggest bands, including The Yardbirds, Marc Bolan and T Rex, Japan, Sinead O´Connor and Wham! Simon was born in 1939, so he was a true war baby; in fact, a pre-war baby, who saw how the war and world events impacted the way his birth city, London, evolved and grew through 8 decades. He shares memories of air raid shelters, steam trains, spivs on Oxford Street, the start of the teenage music scene, East End weddings, working in the early music film industry, the Marquee club and much more. If you can´t get enough of these podcasts, head to https://www.patreon.com/DannyHurst to access my exclusive, member-only, fun-filled and fact-packed history-related videos. KEY TAKEAWAYS Simon’s earliest memory is of going down the stairs at Harrow on The Hill station, with the air raid siren going off, to get on a steam train to be evacuated to Devon. Simon still loves London. He feels completely at home and loves the way slums have given way to beautiful spaces. Trad jazz was the first music teenagers listened to that their parents didn´t. In the 50s, every musician who did not have regular work went to Archer Street on a Monday to get gigs. The street was jam packed. The songs played at East End weddings were always the same. The Establishment on Wardour Street looked very seedy outside but inside it was a classy club filled with film and music stars. Simon likes modern music, and the innovative approaches used to produce it. Every successful performing artist is looking for love and respect. The way the music industry works has not changed much, just the technology. Every band still wanted to play the Marquee Club. Rock and Roll inspired young people to go out and follow their dreams. The music industry has broken down societal boundaries. BEST MOMENTS “At five years old, I was going off myself on my bicycle.” “London was my place to sit and dream.” “Coronation Street readied us for wanting a teenage idol with a with a regional accent, so the Beatles did well.” “The essence of being a musician is to play live.” “Drugs have always been interrelated with music.” EPISODE RESOURCES Simon Napier-Bell Books - https://www.amazon.co.uk/stores/Simon-Napier-Bell/author/B000APTQZA Archer Street history / https://www.muhistory.com/from-the-archive-4-archer-street-london HOST BIO Historian, performer, and mentor Danny Hurst has been engaging audiences for many years, whether as a lecturer, stand-up comic or intervention teacher with young offenders and excluded secondary students.

Så går den hårde rocktur tilbage til 1972, som bød på både stener rock og tunge spidsfindigheder fra Black Sabbbath, signatursange fra Deep Purple, Uriah Heep, Thin Lizzy og Alice Cooper, og et par drengedrømmedrøn fra Status Quo og Slade. Vores faste gæste duo, Steffen Jungersen og Michael Stützer Hansen, fortsætter topformen. Nedslagspunkter: - Black Sabbath laver tung stener rock på "Vol. 4". Det fjerde mesterværk ud af fire mulige. - Deep Purple laver fede numre på "Machine Head", men de lyder bare bedre på "Made In Japan", mener Steffen. - "Smoke on the Water". Hvad er det nu med dét riff? Michael Stützer forklarer. - Dobbelt op med det bedste Uriah Heep. - Vi hører danske beton rock toner fra både Horsens og Skive. - Vi kommer omkring Lemmy i Hawkwind, Dio i Elf og Marc Bolan i T-Rex. - Blue Öyster Cult, Thin Lizzy og Nazareth er også med. - Status Quo og Slade tænder drengedrømme hos både Steffen og Michael. - Vi takker af med Alice Coopers absolutte signatursang. God lytte-tur tilbage til 1972, og vi høres ved i det næste afsnit fra 1973, som udsendes om under to uger! Idé, tilrettelæggelse og research: Jens "Jam" Rasmussen Produktion: Jan Eriksen
For the 33rd installment of the Fanzine Podcast, we welcome Chris Coleman, former editor of at least two important ‘zines from the 1980s post-punk UK Midlands: Stringent Measures and What A Nice Way To Turn Seventeen. The first of these zines straddled a vibrant local indie scene that included the likes of Eyeless In Gaza, In Embrace, Attrition, and the Glass Records label (about which Chris put together a special edition) along with Chris's evident excitement for early U2. What A Nice Way To Turn Seventeen, while maintaining the fanzine format, declared itself musically with a first issue featuring interviews with The Waterboys, The Alarm - and Johnny Thunders, to whom it later dedicated a special issue (as it did Marc Bolan). WANWTTS also put out physical vinyl – EP's and albums alike - that included the likes of The Jazz Butcher, Jasmine Minks, The Membranes, Mike Scott and Nikki Sudden, and which therefore continued to place the zine at the heart of the mid-80s indie music scene. To this day, Chris continues to release records of lost archived recordings on his Seventeen label.Chris spent a Friday night indoors chatting with podcast host Tony Fletcher about his fanzine experiences back in the day. Other fanzines mentioned in this episode include Bucketful Of Brains, Alternative Sounds and Adventures In Reality, and the conversation also diverges into the likes of R.E.M. and The Smiths. We get to hear how Chris's parents once collated and stapled and distributed zines for him while he was on holiday, and we find out which of the aforementioned musicians once commented to him, “You have great veins.” (Hint: it should be obvious.)Visit https://tonyfletcher.substack.com/p/what-a-nice-way-to-turn-seventeen for images of some vintage What A Nice Way To Turn Seventeen, to find similar posts and pages dedicated to earlier Fanzine Podcasts, and for Tony's twice-weekly writings.Thanks to Noel Fletcher for the theme music, and Greg Morton at Omnibus Press for the logo template.The Best of Jamming!: Selections and Stories from the Fanzine That Grew Up 1977-86 is available from here.

Efter vores første to-delte afsnit fra fødselsåret 1970 er vi fremme ved det gode år 1971, som blev et særdeles interessant inspirationsår for mange metalmusikere og rockfans, blandt andre vores faste gæste duo, Steffen Jungersen og Michael Stützer Hansen. Nedslagspunkter: - Med "Fireball" laver Deep Purple forarbejdet til noget, der ligner speed metal. og rammer lige i øregangene på Steffen, Michael og knægten Lars Ulrich. - David Byron og Uriah Heep leverer falset-inspiration til teenagedrengen Kim Bendix Petersen. - Jethro Tull inspirerer Michael, og får Steffen til at sige noget flabet om Tony Iommi (hvor er den gule breaking news bjælke, når man skal bruge den!?) - Led Zeppelin laver en album klassiker, genopdager 50'er rock'n'roll, og lader John Bonham banke ekstrahårdt til gryderne, noterer Michael. - Black Sabbath's tredje album, "Master of Reality": På højde med det højeste, mener Steffen. Ikke kun i bandkataloget, men i hele rockhistorien. - Moses fra Esbjerg byder på et af Danmarks første heavy rock albums, og med en vis inspiration fra Black Sabbath. - Grand Funk og Budgie tænder også ilden hos den unge Kim Bendix. - The MC5 besørger Motörheads senere eksistens. - Marc Bolan og T-Rex introducerer glam rock, og optegner måske et spor til melodisk hard rock? Steffen Jungersen var ikke T-Rex fan, men han anskaffede deres plader af smålumre grunde. - Alice Coopers gennembrud, både kommercielt og kunstnerisk. Lyt endelig med, og vær klar igen til det næste program, Afsnit 3: 1972, som udsendes om cirka 14 dage! Idé, tilrettelæggelse og research: Jens "Jam" Rasmussen Produktion: Jan Eriksen
No musician is more closely associated with London or left more footprints than Bowie, and you can trace its influence on his life and work (and vice versa) through a series of landmarks from the suburbs to the centre. Author and curator Paul Gorman has just published an annotated street-map – David Bowie's London - listing the places that played a formative role in his world and music, the places he rehearsed, performed, filmed and recorded, the homes of friends and managers, his schools and the addresses where he lived, worked and was photographed, made connections, bought clothes and generally raised the temperature. We talk here about many of those old haunts and the stories attached to them, which include… … mysterious manager Ralph Horton who got him to change his name to Bowie and then vanished from the face of the earth. … the fate of Heddon Street, home of K-West and the Ziggy phone-box. … Marc Bolan refusing to let him sing at an all-night benefit at Middle Earth. … “the Fairy Godmother of the New Romantics” at the WAG Club. … when Lionel Bart came to Haddon Hall. … Bowie and Steve Marriott auditioning for the Lower Third. … how he levered his way into a Fabulous magazine fashion shoot. … “the end of the age of Showbiz”: performing Chim Chim Cher-ee at the Marquee when at a crossroads between rock and roll and cabaret. … the magical piano at the Trident Studios. … a chance encounter with the otherworldly Vince Taylor whose ‘UFO map' helped inspire the concept of Ziggy Stardust. … the legend of Mr Fish, creator of the man-dress on the cover of The Man Who Sold The World. … the days when people had a white Rolls Royce and matching Alsatian – and “the Great Sarong Scare of the ‘90s”. … and various fringe figures including his art teacher Owen Frampton, Konrads agents Bob Knight and Eric Easton, muse and heartbreaker Hermione Farthingale, producers Shel Talmy and Tony Hatch (“the original Mr Nasty from Opportunity Knocks”) and slum landlord and racketeer Peter Rackman.

Matt Marble is an artist, author, audio producer and director of the American Museum of Paramusicology. Both creatively and through historical research, his work explores the inspired intersections of art and metaphysics and the intuitive disciplines they mutually employ. Matt is the author of Buddhist Bubblegum: Esotericism in the Creative Process of Arthur Russell, and the producer/host of Secret Sound, a podcast exploring the metaphysical biopics of American musicians, and The Hidden Present, an audio interview series exploring intuitive discipline and spiritual imagination. Additional works have been featured by the California Festival, Warp Records, and the Philosophical Research Society. His writing, research, media production, and personal archive constitute the American Museum of Paramusicology (AMP), through which he also publishes the monthly AMP Journal.The term “paramusicology” was first coined in 1993 by author Melvyn Willin to address psychic and pagan histories of music. Musicology being the study of music, paramusicology is the study of paranormal music experience. Though the term has struggled to find solid footing, the paranormal generally refers us to that which is "beyond" or “outside” the normal—to experiences or phenomena which cannot be explained by scientific reasoning, objective perception, or causal agency. This points our awareness to what may be called the numinous* in human experience. Due to its abstract nature, to even convey the numinous requires active imagination and symbolic communication. The AMP explores how the numinous informs human listening. And it unpacks the esoteric philosophies and intuitive disciplines which facilitate and draw from our spiritual and auditory imagination.In this discussion, Matt shares a bit about his background, as well as his inspiration for creating his platform. He talks about his visual art project known as Wondering Stars, a mixture of music and physical visual works, and how this came out of his dreamwork.He also talks about his podcast, The Secret Sound, and his 7-part series called The Hidden Present, and we even go into a short discussion about musical modes (as used in Western music - (*thanks to my brother Dan for making that distinction) and their ‘moods', as well as how these can be useful tools for creativity.We then move to talk about the AMP Journal, and focus on Issue 16 from last August called “Spirit Invocations.” In this issues, Matt wrote about the film Longlegs and how sound (not ‘song', as I misspoke in the introduction) is key to this film, including the role of folk music and rock and roll and the esoteric aspects of these, along with how Marc Bolan served as inspiration and perhaps as blueprint of sorts for the main character. He also discusses the concept of the Fohat ( taken from the Theosophical Society) and how this may have inspired the ideas behind the metal balls that Longlegs placed inside the doll heads in the film.PROGRAM NOTEShttps://www.mattmarble.net/matt-marble (all links at the top of the page)https://www.mattmarble.net/buddhist-bubblegumhttps://www.mattmarble.net/amp-longlegshttps://mattmarble.bandcamp.com/https://www.youtube.com/@AmericanMuseumofParamusicologyhttps://www.instagram.com/americanmuseumofparamusicology/Full episode can be found at https://www.patreon.com/RejectedReligion, or purchased for a one-time fee.

We had the pleasure of interviewing BØRNS over Zoom video!Chart-topping, platinum recording artist BØRNS has shared his timeless new EP Honeybee, available to stream now on all DSPs worldwide. The release puts BØRNS' full spectrum of songwriting on display, paying homage to 60s and 70s icons like Elton John, The Beach Boys, and ELO. Honeybee serves as a continuation of his journey from 2023's Suddenly, but with a much warmer, uplifting energy after exploring the 6 stages of grief.“This project is about finding love in new places, and it was incredibly exciting to create a record that felt so alive by tracking the songs with all live musicians,” he says. “Drawing inspiration from the classic records I grew up on, this EP feels like a celebration of everything that brings me joy.”In addition to releasing new music, BØRNS plans to announce his first shows in over five years in 2025. BØRNS is an artist who taps into something enduring, yet has always been strikingly ahead of his time. His debut album Dopamine not only lit up the charts but also gained new virality in 2020 with "Electric Love," which currently boasts over 1 billion Spotify streams and was hailed by Taylor Swift as "an instant classic." Throughout the 2010s, BØRNS shared the stage with countless iconic artists, such as Lana Del Rey, Bleachers, The Lumineers, Halsey, Charli XCX, and many others. He was also a featured artist for Tower of Song: A Memorial Tribute to Leonard Cohen, and Angel Headed Hipster: Songs of Marc Bolan and T.Rex, alongside a line-up of legacy artists. Both projects were produced by the late, great Hal Willner.After a sold-out US tour and his second Coachella appearance in 2018, BØRNS took a break, stepping away from the spotlight to recalibrate and dive deeper into his craft. His latest work showcases a more intimate and authentic side, teaming up with a seasoned arranger to create some of the most authentic songs of his career. Just as he did with his debut, BØRNS is once again set to push the boundaries of music, shaping a sound that feels both familiar and entirely new. The question on everyone's mind: where will he take us next? The answer: Honeybee.We want to hear from you!

Keskeinen ikuisuusaihe on myös esillä: Rolling Stonesin vuoden 1999 harvinainen pienen teatterin keikka on nyt julkaistu tallenteena ja Juha muistelee keikkaa paikallaolleena. Oma jännittävä tarinansa on se, kuinka Juha sai ajalla ennen internetiä tiedon tuosta keikasta ja lopulta lipun. Kuuntele, viihdy ja sivisty!

Glitter, vibes, and jams. EarWax grooves and bops into the new year with one of the pioneers of glam rock - T. Rex's "Electric Warrior".Cody and Hilary go back and forth over exactly how great Marc Bolan is as a vocalist (spoilers, he's AMAZING), and weave through the wandering story that brought us this album.At a time when people were looking around for what would come after the 60s, Marc Bolan stepped up, shook the lethargy out of the rock scene, and reminded folks just how fun and easy rock and roll could be."Electric Warrior" ain't nothin' but pure sexy.Thanks for listening!

Nadja [00:23] "Sievert Pt. 1" Sv Broken Spine Productions BSP015 2023 (original release 2016) Doomy ambient goodness from Aidan and Leah once again. Eurythmics [22:32] "Love Is a Stranger" Sweet Dreams Are Made of This RCA AFL1-4681 1983 Side one, track one from their sophomore album, with a classic video (https://youtu.be/o6f593X6rv8?si=JdUQVqkJ6oVbYuni) to go along for the ride. Plus, high harmonies by Kiki Dee (https://youtu.be/z0qW9P-uYfM?si=y9ywrtnrvrpZvDqI)! Mose Allison [26:15] "Stop This World" Swingin' Machine Atlantic SD 1398 1963 Amen, Mose. Throwing in some horns is not quite the same as the classic trio from the preceding album I Don't Worry About a Thing, but it's still pretty great. Wendy Carlos [29.38] "Brandenburg Concerto No. 3 in G Major - Third Movement" Switched-On Bach Columbia Masterworks MS 7194 1968 Carlos collaborated with Bob Moog on his nascent synthesizer technology to create this album. Because the Moogs were monophonic, it took 1,000 hours over five months to record. In case you are wondering what a traditional version of this movement sounds like, here is the Netherlands Bach Society performing it (https://youtu.be/qr0f6t2UbOo?si=yiW4DA0AxFSb3sB5&t=370). The Police [34:44] "Miss Gradenko" Synchronicity A&M Records SP-3735 1983 The requisite Stewart Copeland track from final album by The Police. Ultravox [38:18] "Slow Motion" Systems of Romance Antilles AN-7069 1978 Lead track and single from Ultravox's third studio album, which became a large influence on Gary Numan (https://youtu.be/_nt5EH0UYxE?si=pm0h_4YWwXlCKJks). T. Rex [41:44] "20th Century Boy" T. Rextasy: The Best of T. Rex, 1970-1973 Warner Bros. Records 25333-1 1985 As usual, Marc Bolan lays down an undeniable groove (https://youtu.be/9SG65dlho_o?si=4Q8NPlKJc_87trVQ), produced by Tony Visconti. I almost forgot about the sax parts. Can [45:23] "Mushroom" Tago Mago United Artists Records 1971 (2007 "unofficial" repress) Tago Mago was Damo first outing with the band, following Malcolm Mooney's departure. According to guitarist Michael Karoli, the explosion at the end of the song is a slowed-down recording of an exploding firecracker. Zola Jesus [49:41] "Long Way Down" Taiga Mute 9611-1 2014 Zola Jesus' fourth studio album and only outing on Mute (before returning to Sacred Bones). Produced by musician, sound designer, and composer Dean Hurley. The Folk Implosion [54:49] "Had to Find Out" Take a Look Inside...... Communion Label COMM 32 1994 The debut album from Lou Barlow and John Davis... released 30 years ago! Stevie Wonder [56:55] "You Are the Sunshine of My Life" Talking Book Tamla T319L 1972 What?! It's a great song. And it was the single that followed up "Supersition". That's a heckuva gear shift. Number one on the Hot 100, of course. Silver Jews [59:53] "Sometimes a Pony Gets Depressed" Tanglewood Numbers Drag City DC297 2005 A rehabilitated Dave Berman comes back with this album, the fifth studio album. He is joined once again by Bob Nastanovich and Stephen Malkmus, as well as his then-wife Cassie Berman. Cover photo by William Eggleston. Music behind the DJ: "Jackie (https://youtu.be/HqAbaqVBCyo?si=qu8P0gk6OeWL5SeB&t=224)" by Billy May and his Orchestra
Joni Mitchell called it “stoking the star-maker machinery behind the popular song”. Every record sent out for review used to come with a press release knocked together by an over-excited PR before terms like “psychedelia” or “prog” had been invented. They were scanned once for the odd fact or quote and usually chucked in the bin. Richard Morton Jack has tracked down scores of these handouts from 1962-1972, and the news stories they sparked, and published them in the sumptuous ‘Pressing News', a fascinating window into how acts were sold in the days when pop stars liked rump steak, sports cars and “sincere people” but disliked “bad music, traffic wardens and people who say I look like a girl”. We leaf through his book here and talk about …. ... the ingenuity of '60s PRs and why Marc Bolan was a turning point.… Robert Plant and David Bowie's genius for self-promotion.… the pop hopeful whose favourite tipple was tooth-rotting, crystal-based ‘Creamola Foam'. … how PRs sold rebels and outsiders. … a £900 Olivia Newton-John press release. … Beta Male pin-ups Nick Drake and Scott Walker. … confected outrage over the Small Faces' Lord's Prayer. … Joe Cocker, eternally a gas-fitter from Sheffield with “a face like the back of a Sheffield Corporation bus”. … mysterious pop acts that never made it like the Virgin Sleep, the Accent, Bread Love & Dreams, Fresh Maggots and the Tickle whose songs were supposedly chosen by computer. .. the Kinks – “four art students who dress like characters from Dickens”. … the promotion of pre-psychedelia Pink Floyd – “a lyrical atmosphere whose words express a feeling rather than tell a story.” … “the Zombies have 50 GCSE passes between them!” and other press release fiction trotted out in the papers. … the mass 1966 adoption of the kaftan and Charlie Chan moustache.

Sub to the PPM Patreon to access the entire 3 hour runtime of CULT OF CAGE PT. II: patreon.com/ParaPowerMapping (Full notes viewable via the link) An impromptu Halloween session w/ Orion St. Peter gave birth to this Nicolas Cage dbl feature—in which we discuss occult, cultic, & PTK themes in the loosely defined horror films "Longlegs" & "Mandy", tentpoles of the late Cage capitalism debt-induced “renaissance”. We dig deep into the interplay between the "Longlegs" narrative and director Oz Perkins's personal esoteric & intergenerational familial trauma history, sussing out the sources of inspiration in his own highly strange, quasi-aristocratic pedigree. For ex, his great-grandpa "Count" Wilhelm de Wendt de Kerlor, a psychic detective cum spy in the mold of PPM usual suspects Aleister Crowley or Erik Jan Hanussen who was a member of the Theosophical Society, an avid spiritualist, and supposedly the medium who prophesied tabloid journo & anti sex trafficking crusader W.T. Stead's death on the Titanic... We discuss his Italian great-gma, world-conquering designer (aka Chanel's rival) Elsa Schiaparelli & her affiliations with Dadaists & Surrealists like Dalí and Man Ray, not to mention the fact the de Gaulle government suspected her of collaborating with the 3rd Reich. We unpack how psychic detective de Kerlor appeared on the scene in New Hampshire to "investigate" a murder that two BOI agents linked to German espionage in the Northeast during WWI, and we discuss how de Kerlor & Schiaparelli would be surveilled & interviewed, Wilhelm seemingly under suspicion of serving as a foreign agent. These fascinating, little known histories re Oz Perkins's ancestors are an obvious touchpoint for the clairvoyant FBI agent Lee Harker in the glam Satanic serial-killing-by-sympathetic-magick-or-mind-control flick "Longlegs". We also talk about how it's conceivably 9/11 as Mass Ritual pilled, seeing as Oz's mom Berry Berenson died on Flight 11 on 9/11, which gives one a headrushing vertiginous feeling indeed... Seeing as she's descended from this Theosophist spy. Her BDay is repeatedly woven into the sigilistic & algorithmic subtext of the film. And we also discuss how, on the patrilineal side of Oz's family, his Dad Anthony Perkins's confessed childhood Oedipal complex, the early wished-for death of his father, his lifelong closeted life, and his ultimate succumbing to AIDs... How all of this informed the emotionally-charged, cathartic film & its unspoken traumatic seeds... As we go, our analysis of the film begins to force us to confront a theory where a kind of unstated CSA blackhole is the source of the the Longlegs mystery's gravitational pull. We talk: Mandy dir. Cosmatos's father George Pan Cosmatos's final film “The Shadow Conspiracy” which concerns a pres assassination by drone; both Panos & his Dad having Pan in their names; the Mansonian failed songwriter vibes of both villains Jeremiah Sands & Longlegs; the Mandy scene where a planned ritualized orgy lubricated with “the chemist's best batch” & hallucinogenic wasp injections derails when Mandy openly clowns on the cult leader; Longlegs's character obvs nodding at glam Satanism, Marc Bolan, & David Bowie's infamous “Station to Station”, Dion Fortune-informed exorcism of his possessed indoor pool in what was once stripper & burlesque dancer Gypsy Rose Lee's LA manse; Longlegs's cinematic influences - Fincher fare like Se7en, Zodiac, etc; Silence of the Lambs; Don't Look Now; Altman; Twin Peaks; The Omen; New French Extreme; Gaspar Noe; & Phantasm Many thanks to Orion for jumping on for this spooky dbl feature at such short notice.

1969 - T rex, el proyecto del ex modelo y músico glam Marc Bolan, realiza su primera gira por Estados Unidos. AL comienzo del tour le envía una nota a John Peel, célebre dj de la BBC.
Longlegs is on trial this week. The daddy of detective horror films or does it trip over itself? Gav defends, stating that superb direction and a great aesthetic put him in seventh heaven. The devil is in the details for Ausy and Alex however, as they say a promising beginning ultimately collapses in a poor third act with podcast favourite up to his old antics. All this with an impression of Cage doing an impression of Marc Bolan, and a quiz all about serial killers in films. www.filmsontrial.co.uk/261

In this episode of "Concerts That Made Us," Brian is joined by guitarist and President of Schecter Guitars Michael Ciravolo. The two engage in a deep and insightful conversation about Beauty in Chaos's highly anticipated fourth album, "Dancing with Angels." Michael delves into the meticulous creative process behind the album, detailing the inspiration and hard work that went into crafting each track. They elaborate on the enriching collaborations with a diverse array of artists, shedding light on how these partnerships brought unique flavors and depth to the music.The discussion also navigates through the multifaceted challenges of modern music production, from navigating digital platforms to maintaining sound quality and artistic vision in an era dominated by streaming services. Michael shares his excitement about the upcoming remix record, which promises to offer fresh takes and new dimensions to the original tracks, further expanding the album's artistic reach.In a more personal segment, Michael reveals his obsession with guitar pedals, discussing how these tools have become an integral part of his sound and creative expression.

Lori Tucker-Sullivan is a first-time guest. She's the author of the new book I Can't Remember If I Cried: Rock Widows on Life, Love, and Legacy. The stories of rock musicians who die young are the thing of lore and legend. Accidents, drug overdoses, plane crashes—all have taken the lives of male rock stars still in their primes. But what became of their widowed brides? How did they survive a loss so great? What is it like to have to share your grief with millions of strangers? And where are these widows today? I Can't Remember if I Cried is part music history, part memoir, based around interviews with rock widows conducted by Lori —who herself lost her husband in 2010. With each widow that Lori interviews, she learns lessons in love, forgiveness, coping, and moving on. The book is framed by the author's own narrative to create a single thread that links the stories together to ultimately create a tale of how the author's life is changed through her interactions with these amazing women. Among the women profiled in the book are:Judy Van Zant who, after losing husband Ronnie of Lynyrd Skynyrd, sued the re-formed band in order to protect her interests.Sandy Chapin, widow of Harry Chapin, who has worked tirelessly to uphold Harry's significant legacy around activism and hunger prevention.Crystal Zevon, the ex-wife of Warren Zevon, who provides details of her abusive relationship with Warren and how she resolved her anger and grief.Jamie Weiland, widow of Stone Temple Pilots' Scott Weiland, speaking openly of Scott's mental health, which at times kept him housebound for days.Janna Leblanc, girlfriend of Stevie Ray Vaughan, who shares the details of her visits with Stevie in rehab.Gloria Jones, the girlfriend of T. Rex's Marc Bolan who was driving the car which crashed and took Marc's life.Anna Walter-Lax, girlfriend of Who drummer Keith MoonLori shares with us some of what these women shared with her for the book and how her life has been changed as a result of writing this book.Purchase a copy of I Can't Remember If I Cried: Rock Widows on Life, Love, and LegacyVisit Lori-Tucker Sullivan's websiteFollow Lori on Instagram---------- BookedOnRock.com The Booked On Rock YouTube Channel Follow The Booked On Rock with Eric Senich:FACEBOOKINSTAGRAMTIKTOKX Find Your Nearest Independent Bookstore Contact The Booked On Rock Podcast: thebookedonrockpodcast@gmail.com The Booked On Rock Music: “Whoosh” by Crowander / “Last Train North” & “No Mercy” by TrackTribe

Peter Meaden was a key figure in the Mod movement. He changed the world view of Andrew Loog Oldham, which shaped the early Stones, and he managed the Who, remodelling their look and sound, writing their first single and turning them into Mod figureheads. Steve Turner interviewed him in 1975, an exchange that's now the centrepiece of his new book 'King Mod: the Story of Peter Meaden, the Who and the Birth of a British Subculture', and the NME's published extract in 1978 paved the way for the Mod Revival. It's an extraordinary story that would make a movie, discussed here with Steve and including ... ... the Scene Club in Windmill Street "when a band was a way of life".... Angus McGill and the first press mention of 'the Modernists'.… the tale of Sandra Blackstone, the DJ who vanished into thin air.... the lifelong values of Mod culture for teenagers like Eric Clapton, Marc Bolan and David Bowie. ... the single Meaden wrote for the Who - Zoot Suit/I'm The Face - and where he stole the music from. ... police raids in Soho. ... doing press for Bob Dylan at the time of Madhouse on Castle Street. ... the Flamingo Club's dress policy, French and Italian film and fashion, boxing boots, cycle jackets and the origins of Mod style. ... Chuck Berry in suburban Edmonton! ... Meaden's disastrous attempt to bring Captain Beefheart and his Magic Band to London. ... and a typical weekend in 1964, a sleepless, Drinamyl-powered 48 hours from the Ready Steady Go! green room to the Scene Club via Carnaby Street. £5 off copies of ‘King Mod' here.

Next up to the stage in Aerola 51...it's the best podcast about T. Rex and the 188th greatest album of all time, Electric Warrior. Now drop your linen and start your listenin'. Before we get to the music we pull the ripcord and provide some advice on the best things to do in Las Vegas, poker personas, and adopting a uniform lifestyle. Then we play 20 questions and issue an apology that is sure to make you Dikembe in your pants. Warning...don't go back and try to dissect that joke. Then at (1:02:00) we get it on when we break down the glam rock album by T. Rex, Electric Warrior. We discuss Marc Bolan's poetry, David Bowie parallels, and the best songs from Quentin Tarantino's movies. Next week we've got one more hour, and you should turn it on when we become the best Sleater-Kinney podcast and dicuss the 1997 punk rock album, Dig Me Out.
This week the lads hop across the pond to do some more excavation of denim and leather… Iron Maiden, Def Leppard, Saxon, Judas Priest are not on this episode, however, the one and only: Tony Griggs is! The NWOBM movement was filled with passionate bands from Great Britain that were poised to take over the world in the early 80s.

Neil's an old friend from our days back at Smash Hits in the early ‘80s. The first Pet Shop Boys demos were played on the office tape machine, though he was a bit self-conscious about “the one with the rap on it”, and he's one of the few people who's seen the music press from every angle - as a reader in the ‘70s, as a writer and interviewer and as a musician on its front covers. We had so much great material from this wide-ranging conversation that we've turned it into a two-part podcast. Here's a taste of what you'll find in this first half ... … the NME article he and his brother pinned to their bedroom wall. … the event at a Sex Pistols show “which stopped me going to gigs for about three years”. … the first time he saw his name in print. … interviewing Marc Bolan in his “fat phase”. … a barbed chat with Morrissey. … the pop press shift from “super-showbiz to super-counter-culture”. … Television, the Clash and other music he discovered through the NME. … meeting John Taylor 35 years after interviewing him. … the pop decade when “something extraordinary happened every day”. … his mother's horrified reaction when he left Smash Hits to start the Pet Shop Boys. … the Human League in their Imperial Phase. … Phil Collins showing him round Abba's studio in Stockholm. … and why ‘80s pop stars were “the most controlling”.------------------------------------- PSB tour dates: https://www.ticketmaster.co.uk/pet-shop-boys-tickets/artist/735852 Order the new Pet Shop Boys album ‘Nonetheless' here: https://www.amazon.co.uk/nonetheless-Deluxe-2CD-Shop-Boys/dp/B0CTKKBBVF-------------------------------------Subscribe to Word In Your Ear on Patreon for early - and ad-free! - access to all of our content, plus a whole load more!: https://www.patreon.com/wordinyourear Get bonus content on Patreon Hosted on Acast.
