Some 20 years ago, My Morning Jacket's Jim James, M. Ward, and Bright Eyes' Conor Oberst and Mike Mogis got together for a revue-style tour that made quick friends. Nicknamed Monsters of Folk by their then-tour manager, the supergroup reconvened five years later and set out to work on their self-titled album together. The eponymous record is being reissued for its 15th anniversary and features a handful of unreleased tracks, including the trippy Springsteen-tinged sound of “Disappeared.”
Growing up learning to play drums to his favorite LP's, Will Johnson earned an affection for the album as a beginning-to-end document from an early age. Aside from nearly two decades fronting the influential four-piece Centro-Matic, Will is known in Americana/indie-rock circles as being a serial collaborator: He's joined forces over the years in some capacity with Jason Molina, David Bazan and Jay Farrar among others, while also drumming for Monsters Of Folk, featuring Conor Oberst, M. Ward and Jim James. If that weren't enough, he's released seven records to date under his own name, but in March he dropped perhaps his deepest solo endeavor yet -- his first novel, titled If Or When I Call. On today's episode, Will speaks about his meticulous recording process, alphabetizing his record collection during the pandemic, the song Jason Isbell wrote about Centro-Matic, the recent loss of Hank Aaron, growing up with Sheryl Crow as his babysitter and which box set he never goes on tour without. Visit will-johnson.com to keep tabs on everything Will's up to, and support your favorite local bookstore by purchasing If Or When I Call from indiebound.org.
We continue our twelve-part series featuring the cities where Dylan recorded his studio albums over the decades. Part ten features Malibu, where Bob Dylan recorded two albums in his garage studio: GOOD AS I BEEN TO YOU (1992) and WORLD GONE WRONG (1993). We'll play other songs recorded in Malibu, songs about Malibu, and an interview with one of only two people in the studio with Dylan when he recorded his two albums in Malibu. In "20 Pounds of Headlines," we round up news from the world of Bob Dylan and in "Who Did It Better?" we ask you who did "Two Soldiers" better: Jerry Garcia & David Grisman or Bob Dylan as recorded in his studio in Malibu?

Hey, hey, the gang's all here for our usual silliness as we look at new music, upcoming shows, classics, and we cut each other off, laugh, and complain. Good times.

If supergroup is the name given to a band that is greater than the sum of it's parts, then this collaboration between Conor Oberst, Jim James, M. Ward and Mike Mogis fits the bill.
