This episode we got to sit down with a true underground legend when it came to monetizing off the sneaker game. We pay homage to the crew of people that opened up the doors and changed the sneaker game as we know it today in the NY/NJ area. Felix along with his best friend Ike, and Jacob respectfully known as the “Triangle Offense” brought a monster mentality that a lot tried to duplicate but couldn't hold up to the demand that these guys were driving in the game. We love the genuine nature of this conversation because we had a backseat to witness what was happening. Although in some cases we may have missed out on a sneaker it was inspirational watching someone be a Robin Hood for the sneaker/clothing community. Felix deems himself as the Iron Man of this s**t so enjoy as we introduce the underground sneaker mcu, literally taking over the sneaker game in the early 2000s.

This week we sit down with a couple of bad ass sailors who have crossed the Atlantic and refit their 30 foot steel sloop to set off again. Oh yeah, they also happen to be two of our heroes!!
Ron Hayden & The Unknown Legendscame into the studio hailing from Bridgeview/Burbank on the Southside. I lived in Burbank walking distance from Little Frank's Pizza a couple of decades ago. This is a hard working classic Chicago neighboorhood and I loved living there. We had a blast reminicing. Ron is the frontman for this band featuring his creative original songs performed by his kick ass band.Watch all the videos here.

Between 1969 and 1973, the Who hit their commercial and creative peak. The legendary English quartet produced three Billboard Top Ten albums, including two double LP “rock operas,” Tommy (1969) and Quadrophenia (1973). Sandwiched between them was the triumphant Who’s Next (1971),an album universally proclaimed as one of the greatest in pop music history. But as Richie Unterberger shows in his engrossing Won’t Get Fooled Again: The Who from Lifehouse to Quadrophenia(Jawbone, 2011), this period in the band’s history was equally rife with turmoil and conflict. Guitarist Pete Townsend confronted failure in the form of the band’s aborted multimedia rock opera Lifehouse, which collapsed in a very public fashion in 1971. Two years later, the band broke ties with its longtime creative partner, producer and former manager Kit Lambert over missing publishing royalties. Finally, shows on the Who’s 1973 Quadrophenia tour were rife with jarring technical difficulties as the band attempted to replicate the album’s dense soundscapes in a live setting. Thanks to his exhaustive research efforts and sparking prose, Unterberger gives the reader a first-hand look into the inner workings of this greatest of rock bands. This is the definitive book on the Who’s most important era and one of the best books ever written on these rock legends. I give it my highest recommendation. Richie Unterberger is an acclaimed author and music historian, renowned for his meticulous research. A regular contributor to the All Music website, Mojo, Record Collector and many other publications, he has also written dozens of liner notes for CD reissues of classic 60s and 70s albums.
