Baxie talks with Darren Hill from the Red Rockers! Once considered “The American Clash”, Red Rockers scored the timeless New Wave classic “China” in 1983. Last month the band and Liberation Hall Records released a terrific live set from their 2023 reunion show in New Orleans titled, “It's In Our Blood”. Darren talks about that, the band, and about the being deemed “The American Clash” by Rock critic Lester Bangs. Darren also talks about his second career as the manager of The New York Dolls, Paul Westerburg of The Replacement, The Dropkick Murphys, The Mighty Mighty Bosstones, The New York Dolls, and more! Just awesome! Listen on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, and on the Rock102 App. Brought to you by Metro Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram of Chicopee.
Greatest Hits Records & Books in Media, PA, is where our guests, Stu Eli, Jesse Gennett, and Dom Glisson cooked up the idea to record and release an "audio time capsule" of the sounds of Delaware County, Pennsylvania, a/k/a "Delco." The result is the 92-track album, The Sounds Of Delco, Vol. 1, a light-hearted but affectionate nod to their region and to the used sound effects records that wash up in the store from time to time. Paul also pays tribute to Jack Douglas (1945-2026) the legendary music producer and engineer of classic albums by John Lennon & Yoko Ono, Cheap Trick, Patti Smith Group, Aerosmith, and The New York Dolls, who passed on at the age of 80 on May 11.

Ramones. Blondie. Television. Talking Heads. Patti Smith. New York Dolls. Everyone knows the big names that made New York City THE epicenter of American punk rock in the 1970s. But that's only a part of the story... For every band that "made it" in some way, there were hundreds of bands who either faded into obscurity or never got the break they deserved. They shared the same stages at legendary clubs like CBGB and Max's Kansas City. And their stories are essential to the NYC punk revolution of the era. One of those bands was Manhattan's The Rousers, whose drummer, Jerid O'Connell, joins us as Third Lad today! Rousers 1979 Sire Session is out now on Left For Dead Records on both black and translucent white individually numbered 12” LP vinyl and 2 x CD set (with bonus tracks). Inspired by the New York Dolls, Ramones and such immortal ‘50s rockers as twangy guitar hero Duane Eddy, the Rousers were woefully under-documented in their prime. A few major labels sniffed around, including RCA and Warner Bros. subdivision Sire. But no one committed them to vinyl until their single “Party Boy” b/w “Don't Let The Band Stop Playing” 45 (produced by Wayne Kramer of the MC5) via Jimboco in 1981. This oversight is corrected with the release of the demos that the original Rousers lineup cut for Sire in the label's basement studio on New York's Upper West Side in 1979. Never before released, the tapes sat shelved in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame's Sire archives for decades, digitized and restored in 2024. This is not a footnote. It's a rescue mission. Tracked to tape under the sharp ear of Ed Stasium, hot off sessions with the Ramones and Talking Heads, the 1979 Sire demos are raw, radiant, and long overdue for release. They captured the Rousers in full dragstrip ignition mode: dueling Gibson guitars plugged into Fender amps for maximum punk twang, hiccupping Elvis/Buddy Holly vocal inflections, and a rhythm section built for backseat makeouts and beer-splashed dance floors. We celebrate the true underground of NYC punk this week, including Jerid's incredible stories ranging from hanging out with Sid Vicious the week before his death to the Rousers' neighbor Madonna opening for them.

On this episode of Talking Guitars, we remember legendary producer Jack Douglas, who has passed away at the age of 80. Throughout his incredible career, Douglas worked with some of rock's biggest names, including Aerosmith, Cheap Trick, John Lennon, Blue Öyster Cult, Patti Smith, and the New York Dolls. Born in the Bronx, New York, Douglas started out as a folk musician before attending the Institute of Audio Research and landing a job at the legendary Record Plant — first as a janitor, then quickly rising to become one of rock's most respected engineers and producers. Along the way, he contributed to classic recordings by The Who, Miles Davis, Alice Cooper, and many more. Douglas is perhaps best known for producing Aerosmith's classic albums Get Your Wings, Toys in the Attic, Rocks, Draw the Line, Rock in a Hard Place, Honkin' on Bobo, and Music from Another Dimension! He also engineered and co-produced landmark albums including John Lennon's Imagine, Double Fantasy, and Milk and Honey, while contributing to legendary records like The Who's Who's Next and Cheap Trick's self-titled debut album. His close relationship with Aerosmith even earned him the nickname “the sixth member” of the band, and his influence on rock music can still be heard today. Join us as we look back at the life, music, and legacy of one of rock's most influential producers.
Some music careers are carefully planned. Louise Aubrie's really isn't and that's exactly what makes it so interesting.In this episode, Graham sits down with London-born, New York and LA-based singer-songwriter Louise Aubrie for a conversation that moves as freely as her music does. From growing up in a household where Sinatra sat comfortably next to the New York Dolls, to finding her way into a studio in Portugal through a chance encounter with Morrissey's long-time guitarist and musical director, Boz Boorer. Louise's story is one of happy accidents, open doors and the kind of connections that only seem to happen when you're genuinely following something you love.They talk about what it means to write from life — the experience of living between London, New York and Los Angeles, the strange creative freedom of writing through other people's stories, and why Louise dedicated a song on her new record to a silent film actress who directed Charlie Chaplin and was somehow almost entirely forgotten by history.There's also talk of her new single, Midnight Calls, recorded at the legendary EastWest Studios in Hollywood; an album on the way later in the summer; and a shared moment when Graham and Louise quietly manifest a film soundtrack into existence.If you haven't heard Louise Aubrie before, this is a very good place to start.Midnight Calls is out now. Album coming later this summer — available on all streaming platforms, and on vinyl and CD.

Gary Lachman in conversation with David Eastaugh https://www.amazon.co.uk/Touched-Presence-Blondies-Bowery-Occult/dp/B0DSV388DQ https://www.gary-lachman.com/ https://garylachman.co.uk/ In this memoir, Lachman recounts how he went from being a successful rock and roller to a writer on consciousness and the Western inner tradition. He shares encounters with rockers such as the Ramones, New York Dolls, Patti Smith, the Rolling Stones, David Bowie, and Iggy Pop and also his time with Timothy Leary, William Burroughs, and Allen Ginsberg. Living with Blondie's Debbie Harry and Chris Stein on New York's Bowery, a block from CBGB, the birthplace of punk rock, Lachman discovered occultism via a follower of Aleister Crowley. Post rock and roll, Lachman's occult studies brought him to the Golden Dawn, Manly P. Hall, Gnosticism, and a stint in Crowley's O.T.O. He details his time in the Fourth Way, including a visit to the site of Gurdjieff 's Institute for the Harmonious Development of Man in France, and his years studying philosophy and literature and working as a science writer while managing a famous metaphysical bookshop at the height of the New Age movement. Excursions to Stonehenge, Avebury, and Glastonbury in search of ley lines and pilgrimages to Colin Wilson's home in Cornwall are a few of the highlights of this introspective, often humorous account of a nascent writer's struggle from rock and roll to individuation.

Send us Fan MailChristian Dryden and David Andreana from the Ritualists stop by the show to discuss the up coming UK tour, new music that might be coming out in the fall, AI and more. ****Rising from the NYC underground scene of the Lower East Side, The Ritualists first attained international critical acclaim for their debut album, Painted People, released just prior to the pandemic on Out of Line Music. The record, and particularly, its lead single “Ice Flower,” was hailed as a seamless blend of dark beauty & anthemic pop sensibilities. The follow-up effort, Baroque & Bleeding, produced by Brit-Pop icon, Ed Buller(Psychedelic Furs, White Lies, Pulp, Suede), has been described as “pure new romantic psychedelia,” by Duran Duran's Simon Le Bon, and continued the trend of critical adoration, along with regular airplay on SiriusXM. This momentum lead to multiple US tours and multiple collaborations, performing with members of Blondie, Love and Rockets, D Generation and The New York Dolls. The Ritualists now seek to build on their brand of “Gothic Art Rock” (Hollywood Life) with their latest, full-length effort, Too Pure to Cure (Suite484Music) produced by GRAMMY-winner, Mario McNulty (David Bowie, Prince, Willow). The band, which has oftentimes been identified as proudly embracing the more ornate elements of rock-and-roll, further tested such boundaries, as this newest release was honored on multiple "Best of 2025" lists & has been described as "Moody, melodic & undeniably magnetic" by Savoir Faire & "a heartfelt and adventurous offering from a band that seems poised to usher in a new era of new romantic art rock" by Regen MagazineThe Ritualists have announced their first-ever tour of the UK in support of their 3rd album, Too Pure to Cure.Christian Dryden and co. will embark on a short, but compelling run of shows across the UK, with stops in London, Manchester, Reading and Nottingham, from April 17th-22nd. The Gothic Art Rockers (Hollywood Life), will be showcasing material from the new album alongside selections from their critically-acclaimed back catalogue, much of which will be fresh to British Audiences.Their latest, full-length effort, released on all platforms through (Suite484Music) and produced by GRAMMY-winner, Mario McNulty (David Bowie, Prince, Willow), has been honored on multiple "Best of 2025" lists & described as "Moody, melodic and undeniably magnetic" and by Savoir Faire as "a heartfelt and adventurous offering from a band that seems poised to usher in a new era of new romantic art rock" by Regen MagazineTickets & More Info available through www.theritualists.com/event-listWebsite: https://www.theritualists.com/****If you would like to contact the show Dauna@betertopodcast.comFollow us on Social MediaYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCX0ETs2wpOHbCuhUNr0XFTw?view_as=subscriberInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/author_d.m.needom/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/bettertopodcastwithdmneedomSupport the podcast here: https://www.patreon.com/bettertopodcastwithdmneedom©2026 BetteSupport the show

Benny Speer (#Mr. Benny & The Jets) knows a little bit about Michigan rock history. His father booked shows in Detroit, bringing in the first New York Dolls, Blue Oyster Cult and Kiss concerts, exposing and formulating the Motor City music scene to what we all know today. Benny played the clubs, halls, theaters, from Michigan through Canada, as a regional singer/guitarist. When his band Benny & The Jets hit the stage, it became a thing of beauty. The vehicles they arrived in were the bulletin boards and provided another layer of exposure. With all his back knowledge of not only the scene, but how it was formulated, Benny is one of Michigan's foremost musicologists of rock, particularly on how the history of it all came together. Here in part 2, Benny dives into backing other artists such as Freddie 'Boom Boom' Cannon and Bo Diddley, he discusses stolen equipment and getting featured in the Detroit News, he crosses paths with Madonna, Question Mark, Eddie Money AND Ronnie Spector and so much more. He also performs live on the podcast!

¿Listo para descubrir cómo Nova Twins fusiona punk, hip-hop y electrónica en Parasites & Butterflies? ¡Escucha y déjanos tu opinión! Seguimos con el segundo de los podcasts dedicados a mujeres en la música, ya que estamos en el mes de marzo. Si en el anterior programa hablamos de las españolas Lady Banana, en esta ocasión lo haremos del dúo británico Nova Twins, una banda formada en 2014 en Londres. En la misma militan la vocalista y guitarrista Amy Love y la bajista (que también hace coros), Georgia South. Por lo tanto, una banda de reciente creación con sólo 12 años de vida (aunque su álbum Parasites & Butterflies salió en agosto de 2025). Ambas son amigas desde la niñez. Love es de descendencia iraní y nigeriana, mientras que South es de padres jamaicanos y australianos. Una buena mezcla. El padre de South, de nombre William, también es músico. Amy estudió Artist Development en Access Creative College (ACC) London y se inspiró inicialmente en Destiny's Child, evolucionando hacia bandas como MC5, New York Dolls, Kiss, Sweet y Led Zeppelin, priorizando directos enérgicos; conoció a Georgia de adolescente vía el hermano de esta, compartiendo incluso habitación familiar. Georgia, por su parte, cita influencias como Skrillex, N.E.R.D. y Timbaland por su uso innovador de procesamientos electrónicos. Georgia South crea sonidos de bajo únicos con pedales de efectos que imitan guitarras o sintetizadores, sin batería fija en el dúo

In this Valentine's Day edition of The Audio Files, Brad Zerbo and Jaytriot celebrate love the only way they know how—through a wildly eclectic playlist built around one simple rule: every song must include the word “kiss.” Inspired by listener Esther's suggestion, the episode swings from heartfelt classics to glam rock grit, punk attitude, and everything in between. The duo kicks things off with stories of Valentine's Day heartbreak, unexpected redemption, and the healing power of rock music before diving into tracks from Elvis Presley, Hall & Oates, White Zombie, Lita Ford, New York Dolls, Red Hot Chili Peppers, and more. Along the way, they debate the greatest American rock band of all time, reflect on overplayed classics, and share personal concert memories—including epic festival experiences and unforgettable reunion shows. With plenty of laughs, nostalgia, and musical deep cuts, this episode blends romance, rebellion, and rock history into one fun, fast-moving Valentine's soundtrack.
It is foolish to try to describe the music of the Gogol Bordello and its charismatic frontman Eugene Hütz so we'll just list the genres Wikipedia uses: Punk rock, folk punk, Latin rock, polka, folk rock, dub, Romani, and Gypsy punk. Wikipedia also uses the adjective “theatrical” and we won't argue with that. Within the veteran hit band's whirling storm of musical virtuosity, there are guitars. In playing those guitars, there are strokes, and within those strokes, there are downstrokes and that's where our conversation with Eugene is centered. In contrast to his stage presence, which would definitely wake you up, Eugene calmly explains the essential nature of the downstroke and also expounds on punk in general, Madonna's drumming career, and the oft-forgotten tremolo. You'll want to start a punk band. Tomorrow, though, after a good sleep.Pre-save and pre-order Gogol Bordello's new album, We Mean It, Man!, on the streaming service of your choice.Hey Sleepy Heads, is there anyone whose voice you'd like to drift off to, or do you have suggestions on things we could do to aid your slumber?Email us at: sleepwithcelebs@maximumfun.org.Follow the Show on:Instagram @sleepwcelebsBluesky @sleepwithcelebsTikTok @SleepWithCelebsJohn is on Bluesky @JohnMoeJohn's acclaimed, best-selling memoir, The Hilarious World of Depression, is now available in paperback._________________________________________________________________________Join | Maximum FunIf you like one or more shows on MaxFun, and you value independent artists being able to do their thing, you're the perfect person to become a MaxFun monthly member.
The New York Dolls were one of the greatest rock ‘n' roll bands of all time. They came to life when their hometown of New York City was coming apart at the seams in the midst of rising murder, rape and burglary rates. Their drummer drowned. Their bassist was nearly murdered. Their guitar players despised their singer and the only thing their singer loved more than Archie Bell was himself. This of course was all part of the act. The self-destruction, the violence, the intra-band squabbling, but it was of course also part of the band's reality. They were too pure to last. They were born to lose.

Jamie welcomes the illustrious Jake Flores to the program to discuss Richard Donner's very eighties take on A Christmas Carol, 'Scrooged' (1988). In this modern retelling, Bill Murray stars as Frank Cross, a selfish and greedy TV executive who cares only for his bottom line, until he is visited by three ghosts on Christmas Eve, who...you know the drill. We discuss the movie's insanely stacked cast (Bobcat Goldthwait, Carol Kane, David Johansen of the New York Dolls!), its take on corporate media, and its political message. Is A Christmas Carol revolutionary, or merely reformist? Plus: What our boy Marx thought of Charles Dickens.

Episode 057: Bring out yer dead, polish the casket, and cue the dirge—Six Picks Music Club returns with its annual In Memoriam, a cheeky wake for the legends who shuffled off this mortal stage in 2025. From Ozzy Osbourne's final bat bite to Blondie's last call, Brian Wilson's eternal surf, Gang of Four's revolutionary racket, the New York Dolls' glam ghosts, and Mott the Hoople's farewell strut, the guys raise a glass and pay respects to the dearly departed. And because no episode is complete without a curveball, they also discuss why the racket ball, of all balls, reigns supreme.

Bill Dickson in conversation with David Eastaugh https://rousers.bandcamp.com/album/1979-sire-session Inspired by the New York Dolls, Ramones and such immortal ‘50s rockers as twangy guitar hero Duane Eddy, the Rousers were woefully under-documented in their prime. A few major labels sniffed around, including RCA and Warner Bros. subdivision Sire. But no one committed them to vinyl until Reynolds issued their “Party Boy” b/w “Don't Let The Band Stop Playing” 45 (produced by Wayne Kramer of the MC5) via Jimboco in 1981. Reynolds corrects this oversight today with the release of the demos that the original Rousers lineup—vocalist Jeff Buckland, rhythm guitarist Bill Dickson, bassist John Hannah, lead guitarist Tom Milmore, and drummer Jerid O'Connell—cut for Sire in the label's basement studio on New York's Upper West Side in 1979. Tracked to tape under the sharp ear of Ed Stasium, hot off sessions with the Ramones and Talking Heads, the 1979 Sire demos are raw, radiant, and long overdue for release. They captured the Rousers in full dragstrip ignition mode: dueling Gibson guitars plugged into Fender amps for maximum punk twang, hiccupping Elvis/Buddy Holly vocal inflections, and a rhythm section built for backseat makeouts and beer-splashed dance floors. With nods to Duane Eddy (“Ram Rod,” “Movin' N Groovin'”), the sweat-soaked charm of originals like “Be My Girl” and “Product of the USA,” and a rip-it-up cover of Wilson Pickett's “If You Need Me,” Rousers 1979 Sire Session is the missing chapter of NYC punk's golden age, finally pressed to wax. Never before released, the tapes sat shelved in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame's Sire archives for decades, digitized and restored in 2024. Mixing duties were split between Bob Stander (Parchessi Studio) and Ed Stasium himself, ensuring period-authentic crunch meets modern punch. The result is 13 tracks of grease-slicked melody and garage-pop swing, crowned by the kinetic rave-up “Bumblebee Rock” and the shoulda-been-hits “Lonely Summer” and “Be My Girl”—a song that splits the difference between Tommy James stomp and Marshall Crenshaw shimmer.
Happy Halloween!Don and Dude get into the spirit with a pair of albums by artists who turned makeup, mystery, and myth into musical identity. Some masks conceal, others reveal . These bands prove that image can be as powerful as sound. From glitter-streaked proto-punk to sacred heavy metal pageantry, this episode dives into records that blur the line between costume and self.New York Dolls – New York Dolls (1973) Glam rock's wildest children crash onto the scene with guitar riffs that swagger and sneer. Produced by Todd Rundgren, this debut revs with glitter, grime, and chaotic charm. David Johansen, Johnny Thunders, and company blend garage grit with lipstick-stained theater, creating the blueprint for punk attitude and glam-metal swagger alike. Songs like "Personality Crisis," "Trash," and "Jet Boy" turn confusion and defiance into style itself.Ghost – Meliora (2015) From Sweden's cathedrals of doom comes a band that made Satanic spectacle strangely sublime. Led by Tobias Forge under papal disguise, Ghost's breakthrough record polishes metal into something divine and disturbingly singable. Meliora fuses heavy riffs, orchestral touches, and choirlike harmonies to explore faith, absence, and false salvation. The Grammy-winning "Cirice" leads the sermon, while “He Is” and “Deus in Absentia” bring haunting grandeur to a godless world. It's as if Queen joined Black Sabbath inside a gothic cathedral of mirrors.Diggin'Dude:Unto Others – I Believe in Halloween II (2025);Black Sabbath – Black Sabbath (1970)Don:The Blow Monkeys – Birdsong (2025)The Sisters of Mercy – Floodland (1987)What album conjures your inner alter ego?

Has there ever been a group like Talking Heads? Jonathan Gould's Burning Down The House explores their affluent background, the root of their ambition and the springboard of the New York scene of the late ‘70s (he was a regular at CBGB). Along with … ... the romanticised image of CBGB and the reality … their black music roots: “the same instrumentation as Booker T & the MGs” … the influence of the Modern Lovers: “Jonathan Richman and Byrne were both oddballs, appealing but peculiar” … how the economy of New York's real estate let them rent a 2,000 square foot loft for $289 a month … bands from affluent backgrounds take greater commercial risks: “there was always a Plan B” … the art-school drop-out lineage that began John Lennon and Keith Richards … how different they were from the CBGBs acts, a band that sang verses in French and “didn't dress like the New York Dolls” … the band's dynamic, Chris and Tina “effectively one person” ... did Byrne really make Tina Weymouth “re-audition”? … the success of the Tom Tom Club and the tension that caused … Byrne's invention of his own “white choreography” … Stop Making Sense, as big a part of their legacy as any album … and why there can never be a reunion Mentioned in dispatches: Brian Eno, Adrian Belew, Herbie Hancock, Stevie Wonder, Johnny Ramone and Fela Kuti.

Send us a textOn this week's episode, we discuss the self-titled debut by the New York Dolls, one of most influential albums of the 1970s. The New York Dolls blended the Rolling Stones' swagger with garage rock aggression and glam rock theatrics, that both embraced the sounds of early rock and roll and foreshadowed punk rock. Produced in what seems like an unusual hands-off approach by Todd Rundgren,The New York Dolls presents the band with minimal polish. Its full of high energy songs about teenage angst, heartbreak, sex, drugs, and city life played with sloppy abandon. The New York Dolls is a blast from the get go and is must listen for anyone into punk, glam, or just plain good ol' rock & roll. Visit us at www.tappingvinyl.com.

The 1970s band The New York Dolls made only two studio albums, but the group was hugely influential, setting the stage for punk rock. We listen back to Terry Gross' 2004 interview with the band's co-founder David Johansen, who died last week. The group was described as flashy, trashy and drag queens — but Johansen didn't care. He later went on to perform under the persona of the pompadoured lounge singer Buster Poindexter. Also, film critic Justin Chang reviews Mickey 17, a futuristic action-comedy by Parasite director, Bong Joon Ho.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy
