Booked On Rock with Eric Senich

Lisa Torem is a returning guest. Her latest book is another from the Sonic Bond On Track Series. It's Suzanne Vega: Every Album, Every Song.

Suzanne Vega’s career spans nearly 40 years. She rose to prominence in the mid 80s with the hit singles “Marlene on the Wall”, “Left of Center”, and “Luka”. Her song “Tom’s Diner”, originally released as an a cappella in 1987, was remixed in 1990 as a dance track by the English electronic duo DNA with Vega and went on to reach the Top 10 in over five countries. Lisa is here to talk about the stories behind Vega’s hits, why she was given the title of “The Mother of the MP3" and more!

The Booked On Rock Music: “Whoosh” by Crowander / “Last Train North” & “No Mercy” by TrackTribe

Hank Rosenfeld's book The Jive 95: An Oral History of America’s Greatest Underground Rock Radio Station, KSAN San Francisco is an oral history of KSAN in San Francisco, America’s first hippie underground FM station. Rock gods, political stars, and literary celebrities, including Jerry Garcia, Ken Kesey, Sly Stone, and John Lennon were all interviewed by founder Tom Donahue and his cohorts, whose listeners “tuned in and turned on” to bands like Jefferson Airplane, The Grateful Dead, Janis Joplin, Quicksilver Messenger Service, Country Joe and the Fish, Hot Tuna, The Beatles and Santana, among others. Hank Rosenfeld was there during those final years writing, producing, and announcing. He's on the podcast to talk about the station known as "Jive 95", and how it went from a liberating voice to a corporate cliché. Along the way, you’ll hear audio from KSAN including interviews with Jerry Garcia and John Lennon, protest announcements, and station IDs.

The Booked On Rock Music: “Whoosh” by Crowander / “Last Train North” & “No Mercy” by TrackTribe

Tamsin Embleton is the author and editor of the book Touring and Mental Health: The Music Industry Manual. This book is a must-have for anyone who works in or around the live music business. It’s also a fascinating read for those who want to know what life really is like on the road. It’s not all glamorous. The grueling life on the road can take its toll. Often times musicians find themselves without the knowledge to handle the physical and psychological stresses that can mount over time.

This book offers an in-depth insight into how to manage all of it. Written by experienced healthcare and performance experts, it gives real-life advice, the latest research, and helpful tactics for addressing mental health, performance anxiety, addiction, relationships, physical well-being, diversity, and more. Adding their personal experiences to the book are musicians including Nile Rodgers and Justin Hawkins along with prominent touring personnel.

Touring and Mental Health is designed to be read on the road. Pick it up, pick a section, and put it down after, or read it at length. When you’re done, you’ll want to pass it around the tour bus. I’m really looking forward to talking to Tamsin about this book, how it all came about, and how it was all put together.

The Booked On Rock Music: “Whoosh” by Crowander / “Last Train North” & “No Mercy” by TrackTribe

Thirteen years ago, author Nina Antonia wrote the cult bible of all things Johnny Thunders with her book Johnny Thunders: In Cold Blood. It’s the definitive portrait of the condemned man of rock and roll, from the baptism of fire and tragedy that was the New York Dolls, through the junkie punk years of the Heartbreakers, to his sudden and mysterious death in 1991. A brand-new edition was released this week, adding a new closing chapter, bringing Thunders’ legacy up to date with new photos and a foreword by Mike Scott of The Waterboys. Nina is about to tell you all about it in this episode!

New York Times best-selling author Alan Paul is this episode's guest to talk about his new book Brothers and Sisters: The Allman Brothers Band and the Inside Story of the Album That Defined the ‘70s.

Brothers and Sisters is the Allman Brothers Band’s most successful album, selling over seven million copies. Its influence, both musically and culturally, continues to be felt today. I ask Alan about what's in the book, including his personal interviews with members of the band and the previously unheard interviews conducted by Allman Brothers Band archivist, photographer, and “Tour Mystic” Kirk West. We also get into the backstories to Allman Bros. classics like "Ramlin' Man", "Southbound", and "Jessica". Alan also reveals how the Allman Brothers came to the aid of Jimmy Carter’s failing presidential campaign, contributing to his election. Plus, we get into how Brothers and Sisters caused rifts within the band; and how their work inspired a new Southern rock genre.

Alan is also the author of the phenomenal 2014 book One Way Out: The Inside History of the Allman Brothers Band. It was the product of 25 years of reporting on the band, and was hailed by Rolling Stone as a "thorough account" and by Guitar World as "definitive". You don't wanna miss this interview!

Martin Popoff returns to the podcast. He’s got a brand-new book out titled Wild Mood Swings: Disintegrating The Cure Album By Album.

Presented in a Q&A format, the book takes a critical analysis of The Cure’s 13 studio albums utilizing a panel of music critics who appeared on Martin’s video channel The Contrarians. As a bonus to the discussion, Martin created a detailed timeline linked to each album. This book will give long-time fans a new appreciation for the music created by this Rock and Roll Hall of Fame band fronted by Robert Smith.

Martin and I get into a discussion of The Cure. Were they post-punk? Did they launch the gothic rock genre? We also get into a side discussion about bands and artists who’ve been around for a long time. Is there a point where their creative well runs dry? Join in on the discussion!

Mudhoney’s Steve Turner and author Adem Tepedelen are here to discuss Turner’s brand-new book Mud Ride: A Messy Trip Through the Grunge Explosion. The book chronicles the birth and evolution of the Seattle grunge scene – from amateur skate parks and underground hardcore clubs to a worldwide phenomenon – told by one of its founding fathers and the lead guitarist of legendary alternative rock band Mudhoney.

Adem shares his experience working on the book with Steve and what the Seattle music scene was like in the early 90s. Steve has some great stories about his childhood friendship with Stone Gossard, the early days of Green River and Mudhoney, meeting Eddie Vedder, touring with Pearl Jam and Nirvana, why he declined the offer to join Nirvana in 1990, and how he created his "Super Fuzz" sound.
