Crime writer Ernest Cunningham finds himself on a luxury train journey through the Australien outback, surrounded by fellow authors, critics, and publishing industry figures. The trip is meant to be a celebration of crime fiction, but when murder occurs aboard the Ghan, it quickly turns into a real-life whodunit. With the train sealed off from the outside world, everyone becomes both a suspect and a potential detective, forcing Ernest to use his storytelling instincts to unravel the mystery before the killer strikes again. Blending classic locked-room mystery elements with sharp satire, the novel playfully critiques the world of publishing, exploring themes of plagiarism, rivalry, and the nature of storytelling itself. As Ernest navigates shifting alibis, literary egos, and unreliable narratives, he must separate fiction from reality to uncover the truth - before he becomes the next victim.Book Club Kit: UpcomingGreat music huh?!

Best-selling and award-winning authors Robert Rodriguez and Jerry Hammack are on the podcast to talk about Ribbons Of Rust: The Beatles' Recording History In Context: Volume 1 - July 1954 Through January 1963.The Beatles' story has been told many times, but often with little focus on their personal experiences during their era. John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, Ringo Starr, and producer George Martin were influenced by the sounds around them. Ribbons of Rust presents their journey by immersing readers in the music and times they lived in. The first volume, richly illustrated with period artifacts, takes you with The Beatles from their early inspirations to their initial compositions and covers. Rodriguez and Hammack explore how The Beatles developed their sound in Liverpool and Hamburg, drawing on American rock 'n' roll and deeper cultural traditions, ultimately securing a recording contract with EMI. Spanning July 1954 to January 1963, the book details the post-war British music scene and the influences that shaped The Beatles, bringing readers into the studio with them, from early Liverpool recordings to Hamburg sessions.

We're talking Paul McCartney in this episode. Specifically his music during the decade of the 90s. Author JR Moores has a new book out now titled Off The Ground: Paul McCartney in the 1990s. This was an era like no other for McCartney, perhaps even the most significant decade of his entire career after the 1960s.Following a shakier 1980s, the decade would see him reemerge with greater energy, momentum, and self-belief. JR Moores's sympathetic but not uncritical new book explores McCartney's '90s, with its impressive studio and live albums, colossal tours, unexpected side-projects, imaginative collaborations, forays into classical composition, some new Beatles numbers, and a whole lot more besides. Moores reveals how McCartney's reputation began to be perceived more generously by the public, and he argues that his output and activities in the '90s would uncover more about the person behind them than in any other decade.

Rik Emmett of Triumph returns to the podcast. The singer/songwriter/guitarist behind the hit Triumph songs “Hold On”, “Lay It On The Line”, “Fight The Good Fight”, “Magic Power”, and “Somebody's Out There” is about to release his second book. Ten Telecaster Tales: Liner Notes for a Guitar and Its Music. The followup to his memoir Lay It On The Line, Ten Telecaster Tales remakes the idea of the “concept album.” It is music that arrives inside a book. It's also, arguably, the most comprehensive attempt at liner notes in the history of electric instrumental fingerstyle guitar albums. Emmett delves into the creative process — the roots, influences, philosophy, and spirituality involved in writing and recording and breaks down the ten tracks included on his brand new album titled Ten Telecaster Tales.Purchase a copy of Ten Telecaster Tales: Liner Notes for a Guitar and Its Music Episode Playlist ----------BookedOnRock.com The Booked On Rock Store 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

Author Don Klees is on the podcast to talk about his new book David Bowie: 1983-2016 Every Album, Every Song. It's part of Sonicbond Publishing's On Track series.In a career full of twists and turns, none was as sharp as the one David Bowie experienced after his 1983 album Let's Dance. The record gave Bowie the hit that he wanted but completely altered his artistic standing in the process. Instead of an innovator who pushed rock music forward, the singer found himself a global superstar with a mass audience whose tastes he didn't understand and who reciprocated this feeling as the 1980s unfolded. After immersing himself in the band project Tin Machine, Bowie spent the 1990s embracing reinvention and experimentation with mixed but often fascinating results, leading to a full-fledged renaissance early in the 21st century. From there, his story only got stranger; 2013's The Next Day was a triumphant comeback after years of self-imposed silence. Meanwhile, 2016's Blackstar stood among his most challenging albums and became the final release of his lifetime. One constant is that the records David Bowie released during this time were ultimately the result of his artistic vision, wherever it took him. This book considers all those releases on their own merits, away from the shadow of his 1970s landmarks. Even if Bowie himself didn't always appreciate the results, every album featured songs worthy of his reputation.Purchase a copy of David Bowie: 1983-2016 Every Album, Every Song in the UKPurchase a copy of David Bowie: 1983-2016 Every Album, Every Song in the USFollow Don Klees:Facebook Instagram Episode Playlist ---------- BookedOnRock.com The Booked On Rock Store 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

David Lynch left this world on Jan. 16, 2025 at a time when we were all coping with way too much tragedy. While Lynch's drugs of choice were coffee and cigarettes (along with griddle cakes drenched in maple syrup), we pay tribute to him by pairing weed with a selection of his short films and THE WIZARD OF OZ (1939), a movie he was so obsessed with that there's a whole documentary about it. For Lynch's short films, we mostly focus on THE GRANDMOTHER (1970), a 33-minute student film where an abused boy cultivates his own grandma out of a disgusting tree he grows in his bedroom, kind of like using hydroponics to grow weed in your closet. How we didn't make this joke during the episode, we'll never know, but we're doing it now--kinda. Philena was way into both versions of THE AMPUTEE (1974), where Catherine Coulson (the Log Lady from TWIN PEAKS) writes angry breakup letters while a nurse dresses the gushing wound from her severed leg. Because Lynch never gave up on the short film as a means of expression, Bob brings up the more recent WHAT DID JACK DO? (2017) where Lynch trades cliches with a tormented monkey who has the hots for a chicken named Toototabon. THE GRANDMOTHER and THE AMPUTEE are streaming on Criterion Channel, and WHAT DID JACK DO? is streaming on Netflix. And for the WIZARD OF OZ (1939), Greg goes that extra dad rock mile by muting the volume and playing Pink Floyd's DARK SIDE OF THE MOOON over it because somebody had to do it, and that somebody is GREG FRANKLIN. Greg had to leave a little early, so there's a lot of him at the front of this discussion for all you Franklin fanatics out there. We do talk about Alexandre O. Philippe's documentary LYNCH/OZ (2022), but THE WIZARD OF OZ is too big a phenomenon to see it only through that prism. So we discuss the movie's tortured production, the Culver City little person fuck fest that was the Munchkin Land shoot, and the sheer artistry of the MGM musical fantasy classic. From the makeup to the music, where do you begin? Where do you stop? Well, Cory, Bob and Philena stopped by marveling at the tremendous acting ability of Terry, the Cairn Terrier who played Toto. Man, that dog was amazing. THE WIZARD OF OZ is streaming on Max. It's not HBO. It's just Max. Since this is our last episode before the 97th Academy Awards on March 2nd, we offer our Oscar gripes more than our predictions. Bob watched "Emilia Pérez" so you don't have to. There's also much praise for The Substance and three out of four of our intrepid hosts call out the Academy for not nominating the best movie of the year, HUNDREDS OF BEAVERS.

Our guest is John Lee Hooker Jr. who has a new book out titled From The Shadow Of The Blues: My Story of Music, Addiction, and Redemption. The son of blues legend John Lee Hooker—best known for hit songs like “Boogie Chillun,” “I'm in the Mood,” and “Boom Boom”—John Lee Hooker Jr. was born in Detroit and exposed to the music world from an early age, singing as a featured attraction in his father's shows as a teenager. In 1972, he and his father performed live and recorded an album in Soledad Prison. Junior seemed to have a golden ticket to a successful music career, but trouble brewed. His father's marriage was in trouble, and the family was ripped apart.Drug addiction and a series of related crimes, including as a con player, landed Junior in and out of jails and prisons—including the infamous San Quentin—for three decades. Shot, stabbed, and convicted multiple times, Junior was at his lowest point doing time at a Santa Rita jail. Still, he emerged clean and sober and began a successful career as a blues singer, earning two Grammy nominations and even opening for the Rolling Stones. The life of a blues musician had its rewards but also its perils, and in 2019 Junior decided to devote himself fully to his faith. Today, Reverend John Lee Hooker Jr. testifies, preaches, and performs gospel music in churches and prisons across the U.S. and Germany. This is an amazing, inspiring story.

Author Peter Ames Carlin is a first-time guest. Peter's latest book is The Name of This Band Is R.E.M.: A Biography.In the spring of 1980, a unique group of musical eccentrics performed for the first time at a college party in Athens, Georgia. Within a few years, R.E.M. achieved global success with records like Document, Green, Out of Time, Automatic for the People, and Monster. The band's raw and expressive style set them apart and made them voices of their generation during the transition from the 80s to the anxious early 90s, as they challenged corporate and social norms. In this episode, we delve into the lives of the four college friends—Michael Stipe, Peter Buck, Mike Mills, and Bill Berry—who remained united through it all.

Author Robert Boyd is this episode's guest. He is the author of Before the Storm: The Formative Years of America's Last Great Band. Late in the last century, deep in the Pacific Northwest amongst the economic and psychological hardships of one town, America's last great band was born - Nirvana. The band's leader, a young introvert with superior songwriting talents, slowly molded a style inspired by punk, metal, sludge, and pop. The results changed the band and the music industry forever. Before the Storm chronicles the birth of Nirvana in Aberdeen, Washington, and their early years as independent artists to worldwide superstars. The outcome is known, but the infancy of the band and its rise is a compelling lesson in tenacity, unity, the love of music, and sadly, tragedy.Purchase a copy of Before the Storm: The Formative Years of America's Last Great BandFollow Robert Boyd on Instagram Episode Playlist ---------- BookedOnRock.comThe Booked On Rock Store 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
My guest is Allan Kozinn. He and Adrian Sinclair are the authors of The McCartney Legacy Volume 2: 1974-80. This is the follow-up to the first volume covering 1969 to 1973. The second volume continues to paint the portrait of one of the world's greatest musicians, his work post-Beatles, and his life from 1974 to 1980. By 1974 the Beatles were a distant memory, and Paul McCartney had already gone on to release a solo album and form a new band, Wings. By the decade's end, Wings would be the bestselling band of the 1970s. The McCartney Legacy, Vol. 2 begins in 1974 at the height of Wings' popularity and the beginning of McCartney's next chapter. In this interview, Allan talks about the competitive relationship between Paul and John Lennon during this period, the Paul and John reunion project that wasn't meant to be, the friction between Paul and Yoko, Paul's near-death experience, his troubles with the law, his war with the music press, and much more.Purchase a copy of The McCartney Legacy, Vol. 2Purchase a copy of The McCartney Legacy, Vol. 1 Episode Playlist ---------- 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

Fifty years ago, in the fall of 1974, Bon Scott and AC/DC joined forces. They began building the foundation for what would go on to become one of the world's biggest rock and roll bands. With Bon, they reached the height of their commercial success thanks to the multi-platinum-selling 1979 album Highway To Hell. After Bon's untimely death, Brian Johnson stepped in as lead singer, and with 1980's Back In Black, the band was even bigger. The album topped the charts and went on to sell 27 million copies. It ranks as one of the biggest-selling albums in music history.Here to talk about the amazing story of AC/DC is author Susan Masino, who wrote the book Let There Be Rock: The Story Of AC/DC. Originally released in 2009, the updated edition was released through Omnibus Press in 2020. She is also the author of 2015's AC/DC FAQ-All That's Left to Know About the World's True Rock and Roll Band.

Don't care all that much for new music these days? You're not alone and our guest is going to explain why. On the podcast is author David Rowell. His book is titled The Endless Refrain: Memory, Nostalgia, and the Threat to New Music. The veteran music journalist argues that the rise of music streaming and the consolidation of digital platforms is decimating the musical landscape, with dire consequences for the future of our culture. In The Endless Refrain, Rowell lays out how commercial and cultural forces have laid waste to the cultural ecosystems that have produced decades of great American music. From the scorched-earth demonetizing of artist revenue accomplished by Spotify and its ilk to the rise of dead artists “touring” via hologram, Rowell examines how a perfect storm of conditions have drained our shared musical landscape of vitality. Combining personal memoir, intimate on-the-ground reporting, industry research, and cultural criticism, Rowell's book is a powerful indictment of a music culture gone awry, driven by conformity and subverted by the ways the internet and media influence what we listen to and how we listen to it. For nearly 25 years David was an editor at The Washington Post Magazine and has taught literary journalism in the MFA department at American University. He is currently a senior editor at the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists. His previous books include the novel The Train of Small Mercies, and Wherever the Sound Takes You: Heroics and Heartbreak in Music Making.Purchase a copy of The Endless Refrain: Memory, Nostalgia, and the Threat to New Music Visit David Rowell's website---------- 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

Returning to the podcast is Greg Prato. He's just released his latest book titled Led Clones: The Led Zeppelin Imitator Craze of the '80s...and Beyond. Few bands in rock history have proven to be as enduring and influential as Led Zeppelin. And during the '80s, there was an overabundance of "Zeppelin disciples," or, as guitar great Gary Moore once put it, Led Clones. This is the first-ever book to tell the story about Zeppelin's immense influence on the bands and artists who came after them.I ask Greg about many of the bands and artists in the book. The ones who do Zep justice and those who didn't. There are the obvious ones like Kingdom Come, Whitesnake, and Greta Van Fleet while there are others you may be surprised make the book.

AP Mike from THE BEST SHOW joins us once again for our #Noirvember episode and he's bringing Humphrey Bogart with him. Mike has chosen two wildly different takes on the Bogart persona from two of Hollywood greatest directors. First, it's the classic mystery that made Bogie a star with THE MALTESE FALCON from first-time director John Huston in 1941. Bogart is San Francisco private dick Sam Spade in this veritable blueprint for all the detective noir that followed it. Bogie is backed by an amazing cast with Mary Astor as femme fatale Brigid O'Shaughnessy; Petter Lorre as Joel Cairo; Sydney Greenstreet making his film debut at 62 years old as Kaspar Guttman; and Elisha Cook, Jr. playing shifty thug Wilmer Cook. All of these characters are on an existential quest the big, black bird--the stuff that dreams are made of--and several of them will do anything to get it. Then, Bogart goes grim dark in Nicholas Ray's IN A LONELY PLACE (1950). Bogie plays Dixon "Dix" Steele, a hasbeen Hollywood script writer with severe anger management issues. Dix is dragged in for questioning after Mildred, the hat-check girl he took back to his apartment, turns up murdered, and Bogie's wise-cracking ways take on an air of extreme menace as he jokes his way through the police interrogation. His neighbor, Laurel Gray played by Noir princess Gloria Grahame, falls for him despite the allegations because she saw that he didn't leave with the victim. But as Dix grows more violent and domineering, she, and the audience, start to question all that we've seen. Mike details the differences between the movie and the novel that it's based on. Eddie Muller's favorite film of all time. In our opening segment, we attempt to sort out the wreckage of our society, and our world, post-election before the conversation devolves into more recent movie recommendations. Cory really wants everyone to see CONCLAVE, while Bob says to get really high and watch HUNDREDS OF BEAVERS on Fandor or tubi. Meanwhile, Philena is plotting her escape to Ireland. With Robert Eggers' remake of NOSFERATU hitting theaters next month,OMFYS will be back next month for NOSFERATU CHRISTMAS. Movie critic Matt Zoller Seitz of MZS.press will join us to pair weed with FW Murray's original expressionist vampire epic from 1922 and Werner Herzog's 1979 remake with Klaus Kinski.
