CJ Ramone aka Christopher Joseph Ward's ALLEGED legal testimony has entered the broiling Ramones estate feud between Linda Ramone and Mickey Leigh. If real, it paints a damning, weighted picture of Joey's relationship with his brother. I am so very curious to hear what Marky Ramone might have to say about all of this. www.frumess.com FRUMESS is POWERED by www.riotstickers.com/frumess JOIN THE PATREON FOR LESS THAN A $2 CUP OF COFFEE!! https://www.patreon.com/Frumess

Due to having to get more aggressive with the “return from retirement” job search; there will not be a show…a new show, for the next two weeks. Going to the local Jobs Center up the road and see what they offer. I need a new resume and skills assessment as I've been out of the workforce for almost five years now. I'll see if they offer any retraining of any kind for us re-enterers of the work force.

Steve Craig is the morning host on Atlanta's 97.1 The River/WSRV-FM. Steve has been holding down mornings since 2012. His passion for the music and his listeners shines through the speakers every day. He describes it as being “like a bar conversation about the bands we love.”Atlanta was also Steve's home as the midday jock for 17 years on now-defunct 99X/WNNX-FM. During those years, alternative/modern rock was just starting to take hold of the music industry, and 99X was one of the Radio industry's flagship stations for delivering this fresh new sound to its listeners. As a beacon for the format, artists knew how important it was to get their music heard on 99X, and would often be interviewed on-air by Steve. Some of those up and coming artists included Dave Grohl, Henry Rollins, and Courtney Love, as well as heritage artists at the time, like Johnny Rotten, Brian Setzer, and Boy George.101.9 WRXP gave the Big Apple its taste of alternative/modern rock as “New York's Rock Experience.” Steve was there for it, and worked alongside Rock Radio industry veteran, Matt Pinfield. Those years saw celebrities roaming the hallways on a daily basis…thanks to Matt.Other stops along the Radio dial for Steve included time in Barstow/CA, Fresno, Salt Lake City, as well as Los Angeles/San Bernardino.Part one of four with Steve has him sharing with us his connection to the Ramones. From sneaking into their show at the Whisky in LA, to a New York City street corner encounter with Joey Ramones brother Mickey Leigh. Plus his times at Atlanta's 99x that included a confrontation with Courtney LoveYou can download or stream every episode of AIRCHECK from Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and Google Podcasts.

A song by song breakdown of Mickey Leigh's latest album Variants of Vibe with his band Mickey Leigh's Mutated Music and in which I try my best to get Mickey out of his brother Joey Ramone's very long shadow but the Ramones still come up. After all there's a cowritten song and an outright Ramones cover on this album
The Rock world lost an icon on January 12th when we said goodbye to Ronnie Spector. As the leader and founder of the Rock Hall of Fame group 'The Ronettes' she helped and worked with 'Wall of Sound' producer, Phil Spector to create some of the most memorable songs from the 60's like 'Be My Baby' which we will play and highlight her as our Sticky in this week's show, #202, The Beautiful 2's. The marriage between Phil and Ronnie was both tragic and bizarre. So as I looked at the show's playlist for this week, we have some wacky and bizarre music ourselves! Werewolves of London by Warren Zevon, then there's Mickey Leigh's mutated music. Who is Mickey Leigh you ask? Joey Ramone's brother! Amphetamine Annie, Funk #49,You're crashing, but you're no Wave.

Order Please Kill Me: The Uncensored Oral History of Punk by clicking the book cover above! (MAY 2010) Joey Ramone wasn’t really Joey Ramone. Most people know that the “Ramones” name was for the stage, although few sought out and became their stage persona more completely than the former Jeffry Hyman, a spindly, troubled boy from Queens. If you’re a Ramones fan—or just fascinated with stories of familial disfunction—you’re going to find the new book, I Slept With Joey Ramone: A Family Memoir, an irresistible attraction. LEGS McNEIL AUDIO EXCERPT: "All along, Mickey was writing songs with Joey and never credited. Years and years of frustration came to light when Bud Light used 'Blitzkrieg Bop' in a commercial. I don't think he wanted a lot of money; he wanted recognition. He was there in the studio (when the song was originally recorded), harmonizing with Joey because their voices were almost identical. It was kinda like The Beach Boys, with Carl and Brian Wilson harmonizing with each other." The story was written by Joey’s younger brother, Mitchell Hyman, a.k.a. Mickey Leigh, with help from Legs McNeil, a long-time friend of both brothers and the author of the classic music history, Please Kill Me: The Uncensored History of Punk. Legs, today making his second appearance on Mr. Media, got to know Joey and Mickey in the late ‘70s when he and John Holmstrom co-founded the legendary Punk magazine. I got to know Legs through his later contributions to Spin magazine. His writing always comes with a twist; he’s never dull.

Today's Guest:Legs McNeil, author, Please Kill Me: The Uncensored Oral History of Punk, I Slept with Joey Ramone (MAY 2008) When Spin magazine started, its staff included two fascinating characters. First was Bob Guccione, Jr., the magazine’s founder and namesake son of the publisher of Penthouse. And then there was Spin’s senior editor, Legs McNeil. Legs McNeil!?! What the hell kind of stupid name was that for a journalist? I mean, I grew up with kids named "Plinky," "Jiggs," and "Doine," but "Legs"? Well, let me tell you, that guy Legs McNeil could write. Some months, the only copy worth reading in Spin was under his byline. It wasn’t until years later that I learned that in the early 1970s, McNeil was a co-founder, with John Holmstrom and Ged Dunn, of Punk Magazine, which gave name to an entire musical generation. McNeil has since written two remarkable non-fiction books, Please Kill Me: The Uncensored Oral History of Punk, and The Other Hollywood: The Uncensored Oral History of the Porn Film Industry He’s also involved in a new documentary series unspooling across VH1, Spike, and the Sundance Channel in May called "SEX: The Revolution."
