Anthony Phillips, founding Genesis guitarist, joins Jason Barnard to talk about the formation of Genesis, his departure, and his latest album, Gemini – Pieces For Piano. He traces the Genesis story back to Charterhouse and the summer of 1967, when he first heard a 12-string guitar. Peter Gabriel’s theatrical stage persona came about through necessity, filling dead time while Phillips and Mike Rutherford fought with temperamental instruments. The jump from From Genesis To Revelation to Trespass has always looked abrupt; Phillips explains it simply: he and Rutherford spent the eight months between recording and release writing constantly, with ‘Dusk,’ ‘White Mountain’ and ‘Stagnation’ sketched out before the debut had even flopped. Then there’s the stage fright. Not ordinary nerves but sudden mid-performance blanks that came on after glandular fever. He was eighteen and never told anyone. There’s also a brief exchange with Nick Drake, playing the same indifferent university crowds. When Drake learned Phillips had written ‘Let Us Now Make Love,’ he said one word back: “Dangerous.” The conversation also covers his classical studies, the troubled release of The Geese and the Ghost, and writing the title track of Gemini.

John Leckie is one of British rock’s greatest producers, who started out as a tape operator at Abbey Road in 1970, thrown immediately into sessions for George Harrison’s All Things Must Pass and John Lennon’s Plastic Ono Band. This interview, conducted live at The CAT Club in September 2025, focuses on Sunburst Finish, the Be Bop Deluxe album that gave Leckie his first official production credit, and covers both the making of the album and his creative partnership with Bill Nelson. Additionally, Leckie gives a first-hand account of Syd Barrett’s unannounced appearance during the Wish You Were Here sessions, an encounter he stumbled into while raiding Pink Floyd’s beer fridge, only for Roger Waters to stop the tape and ask who the stranger standing next to him was. The Q&A session draws out further stories about working with The La’s, the Stone Roses’ debut, and how XTC – who idolised Bill Nelson, led Leckie to leave EMI and go independent.

Stacy has descended a new rabbit hole that makes this episode even more exciting than usual; however, it's a Cultural Blindspot so she's forced to wait to share even though it's become her LIFE. Speaking of holes, Eric continues to recover from his dental surgery with his tooth hole intact. He and “the Girlfriend” did something perhaps no one has ever done, they crashed into a bird enroute home from Veranda Beach – a traumatizing experience all around. On the same ride he realized his car's data center wasn't working thus begins “The early Morning Plight of the Chevy Blazer.” Other than Mexican food and avoiding grocery shopping Stacy's highlight in banana Laffy Taffy (which leads to a conversation about the excellent candy selection at Dollarama in Canada. For their CBS (cultural blindspots), not to be confused with IBS, Stacy finally gets to discuss the cultural phenomenon that is the true crime documentary. From MacKenzie Shirilla to Elizabeth Smart with Moriah Wilson for good measure, Stacy is hooked! To redeem herself she watches What Ever Happened to Baby Jane which essentially had a fictional true crime plot with the iconic real-life rivals Bette Davis and Joan Crawford. It was a wild ride and like no other day at the beach! Perhaps inspired by his trip to Canada, Eric watched Strange Brew, a precursor to movies like Wayne's World. To balance out the shenanigans he also watched GlenGarry Glen Ross which featured an A-list cast including our old pals Al Pacino and Jack Lemmon. He gave both movies two thumbs sideways. As for the topic of the week, it was trivia time, a surprisingly fun time to learn they know nothing!

John Helliwell of Supertramp returns to talk about Crime of the Century, the newly restored 1975 concert film shot at Hammersmith Odeon, and the years in which the band went from complete obscurity to one of the biggest acts in the world. He discusses the creative relationship between Rick Davies and Roger Hodgson, and how the tensions between them eventually broke the classic line-up apart. Helliwell also covers life after Supertramp, and what it means to keep performing as you get older.

Boz Boorer talks about his life in music, from his earliest memories of Marc Bolan and T. Rex to punk shows in London in the late 70s, The Polecats, and eventually decades on the road and in the studio with Morrissey. Boz talks about touring with Dave Edmunds, working alongside Tony Visconti, Mick Ronson and Steve Lillywhite, and the stories behind some of Morrissey’s most beloved songs: ‘Jack The Ripper’, ‘Speedway’, ‘Scandinavia’, ‘Istanbul’ and ‘I’m Throwing My Arms Around Paris’ among them. He gets into the making of Your Arsenal and Vauxhall and I, the stage invasions on those early tours, and why recording a chainsaw made perfect sense for ‘Speedway’. There’s also his recent collaborations with Paul Roland and Andy Ellison, digging through old archive tapes, and life running a record shop in Portugal.

Some times, the stars align. Some times, Burglar's favourite song is also your favourite song by The Goon Sax. Some band. Also, Burglar have a new single. So do For Nina. And they are both playing in the Grand Social on 16 April (followed by Nialler9) - you should definitely go to that even though it's not in Galway. Lads. WU LYF have a NEW album. Only took 15 years. It's better the first one too, which is a bonus. Can't tell you enough how great Rua RÍ is - the album is nearly out but Makeover is now a single and it's the one he played with Kean Kavanagh in December that blew our minds totally. Also, new single from NewDad with Liam McKay from Sign Crushes Motorist / Dead Calm / etc etc etc - they are self releasing and it feels so good. Have you checked out Birding, the debut album from London three piece deary? It's on Bella Union, which means you should probably just buy it anyway. Also, it's great. While I have you - go buy Ships by Seamus Fogarty. Just because it's amazing.

New music from Shark School! New single Don't Trust A Man is out now. The album, Selachimorpha, is available for pre-order now too! Check it out on strangebrew.ie and bandcamp.

Can't get enough of the Rua Rí album. So good. Also, that Waxahatcee cover of This Is Lorelei just keeps getting better.

Mark Webber has been with Pulp for so long that his story and the group’s are almost the same thing. He started out as a teenager in Chesterfield with a fanzine called Cosmic Pig, booked Pulp at the local Conservative Club in 1986, became their tour manager with his dad’s old briefcase, and eventually found himself on stage with a Stylophone. Jason Barnard takes him through it all: the years of playing to twenty people outside Sheffield, the last minute Glastonbury headline, the Brit Awards controversy, recording Different Class,This Is Hardcore, Scott Walker producing We Love Life, and the chilly end in Rotherham in December 2002. Then there’s the return. The 2023 shows that were supposed to be just fourteen nights, More recorded in three weeks on a tight budget, and Mark’s daughter finally getting to see him play. Recorded live at The CAT Club on 23 October 2025. The audio is recovered and a bit muddy, but worth the effort.

The marathon is done! I finished it, but it was a driving rain for the last 5 miles. We'll recap it (nips in good shape). Brewers take a series from the Twins on a weekend where they go 3 for 31 with runners in scoring position. Now: The first Cubs/Brewers series of the season. Rodgers and McCarthy are back together in Pittsburgh, Matt LaFleur shotguns beers at Luke Combs. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Packer schedule is out! Certainly a lot to figure out about how they perform on the field, but I think the schedule is VERY kind. Brewers were an out away from another sweep, but do take the series against San Diego. Miz was DOMINANT on Wednesday. Myles Turner outs Giannis as a guy who, "shows up late to everything," during a podcast appearance. Not great!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Brewers sweep the Yankee with more Mother's Day Magic! This time courtesy of Brice Turang hitting a walkoff with a pink bat. Day off before the 1st place Padres are in town. The Bucks stay at #10 in the draft lottery, and more trouble for Wes Edens who was/is allegedly getting blackmailed to the tune of $1 billion dollars. Packers cut McManus, it's Trey Smack's world now. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

He wrote some of the greatest songs in American music, Dark End of the Street, Do Right Woman, I’m Your Puppet, and now, at 84, Dan Penn is back with an excellent new album, Smoke Filled Room. Penn got his first chart record while still a junior in high school, went on to produce The Box Tops, was in the room when Otis Redding recorded You Left the Water Running, and co-wrote Do Right Woman over a guitar in Chips Moman’s front room, only to watch Aretha Franklin walk out of the Muscle Shoals session, before Jerry Wexler finished it in New York. And that falsetto at the end of the James Carr recording of Dark End of the Street? That was him too. He still performs, occasionally writes, and picks up the phone to Jason Barnard.

Gary Talley was 19 when The Box Tops scored a number one hit with ‘The Letter.’ Alex Chilton was 16, had been up all night before the session, and came from the kind of household where that sort of thing wasn’t questioned. What followed was two and a half years of relentless touring, five albums, and a management which took advantage of them. Talley talks about growing up in Memphis during the birth of rock and roll, the story behind some of pop’s most enduring records, and what it’s like keeping The Box Tops on the road more than six decades on.

Brewers get a win on Wednesday in St. Louis and start a BIG series with the Yankees tonight. It's also Wall of Honor night tonight, CC Sabathia is back in town and will throw out a first pitch (and maybe a few innings)! Bucks introduce Taylor Jenkins and Jimmy Haslam is becoming more and more visible within the organization. Draft Lottery is this weekend. We've got a kickoff time for Badgers/Notre Dame at Lambeau, and it sounds like we're going to get the Aaron Rodgers/Mike McCarthy year in Pittsburgh.

Brewers take a series in Washington, but lose Game 1 in St. Louis. Jackson Chourio and Andrew Vaughn make their return on Monday so finally getting a little heathier. Good news on Brandon Woodruff and not great news on Quinn Priester. Packers get their backup QB replacement for Malik Wilis; veteran Tyrod Taylor. And we FINALLY got the Jonathan Gannon/Cam Achord press conferences on Monday. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In a market town seven miles south-east of Manchester, a recording studio opened above a shop in 1968 that became one of the most significant facilities in British music history. Strawberry Recording Studios in Stockport was where 10cc built their sound, where Paul McCartney brought Wings to record his brother Mike’s album, where Neil Sedaka revived his career, and where Joy Division and The Smiths made their early recordings. For a long time, much of this went unremarked. Peter Tattersall, the studio’s co-founder, and Peter Wadsworth, a music historian at the University of Manchester, discuss the history of Strawberry Studios. The soundproofing, Tattersall mentions, was worked out from books borrowed from Stockport Library. That detail tells you all you need to know.

Brewers win a series and have some odd pitching situations this week. Angel Zerpa hits the IL, Chad Patrick lost his vision for 30 seconds on Tuesday before getting it back and getting the win, and Brandon Woodruff left yesterday's game in the second inning with VERY low fastball velocity. He had an MRI last night. Brewers hit the road tonight. Bucks officially announce Taylor Jenkins as their head coach, the Packers pick up the 5th year option on Lukas Van Ess, and we make our Kentucky Derby pick!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The rock group Fleetwood Mac is one of the most well-known and beloved in music history, but it certainly wasn't that way when they started in 1967. Before finding international success with the addition of Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks in 1975, they had numerous personnel changes at the guitarist position. In fact, before Lindsey, they changed guitarists five times in seven years, as they ran the gamut from hardcore British blues to contemporary rock to breezy L.A. soft pop. In his latest article for the Strange Brew, Scott G. Shea tells the story of this magnificent band's development through its guitarists. He describes how they arrived at the band, what they contributed, and why they eventually broke down. If you're interested in discussing the story of Fleetwood Mac, I hope you'll consider inviting Scott G. Shea, a leading music historian and the author of the best-selling book “All the Leaves Are Brown: How the Mamas & the Papas Came Together and Broke Apart,” to your program. Scott can discuss what went wrong with the five guitarists who preceded Lindsey Buckingham and why Buckingham was able to make it work, at least for a little while.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-unplugged-totally-uncut--994165/support.

Few works of musical theatre receive the recognition they deserve, and The Kibbo Kift is a prime example. Written by Judge Smith, co-founder of Van der Graaf Generator, and composer Maxwell Hutchinson, this ambitious rock musical told the stranger-than-fiction story of a breakaway anti-war scouting movement in 1920 that transformed, over two turbulent decades, from idealistic woodland campers into uniformed street-fighters for an alternative economic theory. It played Edinburgh’s Traverse Theatre and reached Sheffield’s Crucible in 1977 under director Mel Smith, then slipped into the margins of rock history. The recordings had a precarious existence. Union rules blocked a proper studio cast album, leaving only a patchwork of demo tapes and studio cuts. For decades these circulated in rough form, hardly doing justice to the material. Now, thanks to Think Like a Key, who tracked down, restored and remastered all surviving recordings,The Kibbo Kift can finally be heard as it deserves. In this interview, Judge Smith talks about the history of this remarkable lost musical, and why its strange subject matter resonates today.

Brewers have a rough weekend against Pittsburgh but salvage Sunday behind a DOMINANT effort from Kyle Harrison. Just need to tread water until some big bats get back.

Duncan Mackay spent the 1970s at the keyboard of British popular and progressive music, often invisibly, yet seldom far from its most defining moments. MacKay first built a reputation in South Africa which brought him back to England where he joined Steve Harley and Cockney Rebel, just as ‘Make Me Smile (Come Up and See Me)’ reached number one, and it was at Abbey Road during those sessions that he first encountered producer Alan Parsons. That relationship drew him into the Alan Parsons Project and, through the same circle, into the studio with Kate Bush, on whose first three albums he played. He later joined 10cc after an impromptu jam with Rick Fenn led to an invitation to Strawberry Studios South, arriving in time for ‘Dreadlock Holiday’ and another number one. He also recorded with Camel and served as musical director for Elkie Brooks while maintaining a solo career. Now based in South Africa and working in his home studio he is free to undertake the most enjoyable recording project of his career, his new album with Mauritz Lotz, A Beautiful Madness.

Rat Scabies needs little introduction as the thunderous drummer of The Damned. His collaborator in One Thousand Motels, Chris Constantinou, has had a career that has taken him from the studio with Chas Chandler, to the Live Aid stage at Wembley with Adam Ant, and into the recording booth with Sinéad O’Connor. Rat and Chris describe how they first met through The Mutants, a collaborative project that assembled an unlikely roll-call of rock veterans including Wilco Johnson, Wayne Kramer and Norman Watt-Roy. That project proved too unwieldy to tour so they stripped it back, formed a two-man core, and called it One Thousand Motels. The result was 2% Out of Sync, an album that has taken almost six years to find its way onto vinyl, and into listeners’ hands.

Jason Barnard is joined by music writer and artist Chris Wade to talk about The Kinks Are the Village Green Preservation Society. They discuss how the US tour ban pushed Ray Davies inward, the extraordinary run of Kinks singles, and what it means to preserve an England that probably never existed in the first place. Davies kept returning to the village green and its characters into the early 70s with the Preservation albums. The record’s influence spread slowly, and today it is treasured as one of the greatest British albums ever made.

Then, the story of how over 12,000 words were defined.  This week's brews are some daily cups of coffee. One cafiniated, one decaf. 

Brewers start the season 5-1, they give a BIG extension to Cooper Pratt and we had CB Bucknor drama all week. Alex Antetokounmpo makes his Bucks debut on Tuesday, a nice moment in a disaster of a season. Matt LaFleur speaks for the first time since his contract extension at the league meetings in Phoenix. And it's a mailbag second half episode! Podcast questions, running questions, Bob Harlan questions, Brewer extensions and more. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Andrew Sandoval talks about THE KINKS – ALL DAY AND ALL OF THE NIGHT, The Day-By-Day Story Pt 1: 1940-1971, the new book he co-authored with the Doug Hinman. This is the most comprehensive record of the Kinks’ early career ever assembled. Andrew and Jason Barnard cover what it actually took to document The Kinks, from chasing down Shel Talmy’s original studio invoices (Pye Records kept almost no paperwork). They dig into Ray Davies’ songwriting arc, the commercial failure of Village Green Preservation Society and Arthur, the on-stage fight in Cardiff that nearly ended the band in 1965, and the years of visa problems that kept the Kinks out of America. There’s also a discussion of Ray’s unreleased material that were better than most bands’ released work, why Ray refused to release ‘Pictures in the Sand’ for decades, and how the Granada Television deal that funded Arthur eventually fell apart.

What a Sunday! Brewers rally with a Yeli go-ahead pinch-hit homer to sweep the Sox on opening weekend, and Duke CHOKES in the Elite 8 against UConn! You hate to see Duke fans so sad! Shame! Bucks officially eliminated from playoff contention for the first time since 2015-16 over the weekend, would Giannis suit up for a few more games if this is it?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Lou Gramm discusses his long-awaited album Released and how it brings unfinished songs back to life. Gramm also opens up about Foreigner's induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, the politics that delayed their recognition, and the emotional moment of finally taking the stage to accept the honour. The podcast explores the rekindling of his relationship with Mick Jones, overlooked Foreigner albums such as Mr. Moonlight and the short-lived Shadow King project, both of which Gramm believes deserve far greater attention.

Another disappointing March for Greg Gard and the Badgers as they fall to High Point on Thursday. What do you do with the program? Time to move on and try a new vision, or stick with Gard and hope the team is better next March? Bucks owner Wes Edens finally talks about Giannis and what to do this offseason.

Tom Doyle digs into the remarkable, and surprisingly chaotic, story of Paul McCartney’s post-Beatles decade. Tom’s book Man on the Run, reissued to coincide with the official documentary of the same name, charts McCartney’s journey from 1969 to 1981: from morning drinking on a Scottish farm to headlining Madison Square Garden. Tom covers Linda’s role in keeping Paul from the brink, the brotherly war-and-reconciliation with John Lennon, the near-collaboration that almost happened in New Orleans in 1975, Denny Laine’s loyal lieutenancy, the extraordinary circumstances behind Band on the Run, the rise and fall of Wings, and the moment John Lennon’s murder brought the freewheeling seventies era to a sudden stop. Further information Man on the Run and Ringo: A Fab Life by Tom Doyle are available now. (Ringo: A Fab Life, US release May 2026).

MARCH MADNESS HERE! Quick conversation about the WBC title game between the US and Venezuela, plus Giannis is hurt again and I would think likely shut down for the year. Badgers and High Point tomorrow, I think this team is primed to make it's first Sweet 16 run since 2017. We'll give our Final Four prediction and Champion. Best 4 days in sports coming up!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

My wife joins me for a Spring Training trip review! We spent a week in Scottsdale and had a great trip, watching a LOT of baseball and doing some hiking. We'll talk about ALL of the Packer moves from last week, the Badger run in the Big Ten Tournament and once again getting JOBBED by the Selection Committee, and some Bucks basketball as well.

If you’re a David Bowie fan, the names Earl Slick, Mike Garson, Tim Lefebvre, Gerry Leonard and Mark Plati will need no introduction. But KillerStar are not a Bowie tribute, and that’s what makes them so special. On this episode, KillerStar co-founder Rob Fleming explains how the whole thing started organically; a few demos, a call to vocalist Emm Gryner, and suddenly some of the most celebrated musicians of the past thirty years were playing original music together for the first time in years. Now, with new album The Afterglow, the collective grows with the Webb Sisters bringing their vocal talents to an already extraordinary lineup. Rob discusses five KillerStar tracks that demonstrate why they sound like no one else today.

It’s been over a decade since I last spoke to Steve Ellis, and it felt like no time had passed at all. That’s the thing about Steve, he just pulls you straight back in. The prompt for this catch-up was his latest release, Love Affair – Edinburgh Live 1995. The story of how it came to exist, a phone call at 7pm asking if they could record a live album that same night, is pure Steve Ellis. From there we tumbled into his soul and Motown roots, the mod scene, and his deep connection with Steve Marriott and the Small Faces. Then there’s the legendary Eros fountain stunt – the arrest and how it helped send ‘Everlasting Love’ to number one. On the solo front, we cover his friendship and collaborations with Paul Weller and Roger Daltrey. And as a parting shot, Steve reveals a new album is in the bag, and by the sound of it, well worth the wait.

This week on Strange Brew, Rob and Drew crack open the cosmos and pour into the weird world of aliens. They break down the bizarre Lead Masks case, unpack the mystery of the Betz Family sphere, wade into sea monster lore, and debate why alien abductions always seem to involve the same unsettling themes.

Celluloid Heroes: Episode 14Film: Ghostbusters (1984)Police Academy! Strange Brew! Gremlins! And in the summer of 1984 we got an answer to the question: Who ya gonna call? Well, at the start of the now legendary summer of 1984 the answer to that question was anything but “Ghostbusters”. After that summer though there was only one team of paranormal investigators and eliminators to call. It's the opening weekend of Ivan Reitman's Ghostbusters; a movie that could only have succeeded due to the year it was released, and we take a deep dive into that classic film, and delve into the friendships we lose along the long and occasionally lonely road of growing up.Follow Celluloid Heroes on INSTAGRAM https://www.instagram.com/TheCelluloidHeroesPodFollow Brad Abraham at www.bradabraham.comShare your thoughts with us!
