Booked On Rock with Eric Senich

Of all of the 'classic' British rockers who came to prominence in the 1960s, only a very few have achieved significant, sustained success through to the present day. A list that comprises Paul McCartney and The Rolling Stones should also include Eric Clapton. His critical and commercial accomplishments with John Mayall's Bluesbreakers, Cream, Blind Faith and his first solo album between 1965 and 1970 was followed by the inexplicable failure of the ‘Layla’ album. Clapton withdrew into addiction for several years.

In 1974, his 'comeback’ album, ‘461 Ocean Boulevard’, returned him to the top three in both the UK and America. Always a strong concert draw, Clapton has released another sixteen top twenty albums since. Even ‘Layla’ returned to the charts in 1982.

“Eric Clapton Solo: Every Album, Every Song” reviews and analyses all of Clapton’s studio albums since 1974, as well as successful collaborations with BB King and JJ Cale. It’s been a long, varied journey: the laid-back rocker of the 1970s; the commercial sheen of the 1980s; the polished, acoustic yuppie music and hard blues of the 1990s; the slick R & B stylings of the 2000s and the roots homages of the 2010s. All of this was underpinned by the skill and talent of Britain’s greatest blues guitarist and a hugely underrated vocalist.

Andrew Wild is an experienced writer, music collector and film buff with many books to his name including recent publications about Queen, Pink Floyd and Dire Straits. His comprehensive study of every song recorded and performed by the Beatles between 1957 and 1970 was published by Sonicbond in 2019.

The Booked On Rock Music: “Whoosh” & “Nasty” by Crowander (https://www.crowander.com)

Jude Southerland Kessler, the world’s leading authority on the life of John Lennon, will release Volume 5 in "The John Lennon Series" titled "Shades of Life Part 1".

"Shades of Life Part 1" follows The Beatles through the first half of 1965, including the making of the "Help!" movie and soundtrack, their European Tour, The Beatles' MBE nomination and the first fissure in The Beatles unity as Paul McCartney records his solo song, "Yesterday." The year would also see John Lennon publishing his second book of poetry and prose - "A Spaniard in the Works", and struggling with staid, married life in the stockbroker belt.

Kessler’s John Lennon Series takes readers chronologically through his life. The first four volumes - "Shoulda Been There", "Shivering Inside", "She Loves You" and "Should Have Known Better". With a personal library of over 500 Beatles-related books and multi-media resources, Kessler undertook seven trips to Liverpool, England to interview Lennon’s childhood friends, early band members, art college mates, and business associates before embarking on writing the series, which is told in a narrative history format and heavily documented.

Kessler completed high school in three years and when “she was just seventeen,” she went on to Northwestern State University, Louisana, where she earned two degrees (English and history) in three years. She immediately won a graduate assistantship to The University of Maryland in 1974 and received her master’s degree in English in 1976. She’s taught on the junior high and high school levels and was an English instructor at The University of Maryland and Troy State University, Alabama. Kessler also has a paralegal degree in Law Research.

In 1986, Kessler began her research into The John Lennon Series, a 9-volume work on the life of John Lennon. Establishing a reputation as the leading Lennon expert, Kessler began speaking to organizations across the United States writing for the Kansas City Beatlefan magazine. She’s interviewed U.S.-residing Beatles figures such as May Pang, George Harrison’s sister, Louise; reporter Larry Kane, Angie and Ruth McCartney, and journalist Ivor Davis.

Kesller hosts “The John Lennon Hour” on BeatlesARama Radio and BlogTalk Radio, and she’s been featured on BBC’s “Up All Night,” Rod Quinn’s ABC Radio “Up All Night” from Australia, May Pang & Cynthia Neilsen’s “Dinner Specials” among many other radio and personal appearances. She currently co-hosts the Podcast "She Said, She Said," with author Lanea Stagg.

The Booked On Rock Music: “Whoosh” & “Nasty” by Crowander (https://www.crowander.com)

When rock legend Eddie Van Halen died of cancer on October 6, 2020, the entire world seemed to stop and grieve. Since his band Van Halen burst onto the scene with their self-titled debut album in 1978, Eddie had been hailed as an icon not only to fans of rock music and heavy metal, but to performers across all genres and around the world. Van Halen’s debut sounded unlike anything that listeners had heard before and remains a quintessential rock album of the era.

Over the course of more than four decades, Eddie gained renown for his innovative guitar playing, and particularly for popularizing the tapping guitar solo technique. Unfortunately for Eddie and his legions of fans, he died before he was ever able to put his life down to paper in his own words, and much of his compelling backstory has remained elusive—until now.

In "Eruption: Conversations with Eddie Van Halen", music journalists Brad Tolinski and Chris Gill share with fans, new and old alike, a candid, compulsively readable, and definitive oral history of the most influential rock guitarist since Jimi Hendrix. It is based on more than 50 hours of unreleased interviews they recorded with Eddie over the years, most of them conducted at the legendary 5150 studios at Eddie’s home in Los Angeles. The heart of "Eruption" is drawn from these intimate and wide-ranging talks, as well as conversations with family, friends, and colleagues.

In addition to discussing his greatest triumphs as a groundbreaking musician, the book also takes an unflinching look at Eddie’s early struggles as a young Dutch immigrant unable to speak the English language, which resulted in lifelong issues with social anxiety and substance abuse. "Eruption"also examines his brilliance as an inventor who changed the face of guitar manufacturing.

As entertaining as it is revealing, "Eruption: Conversations with Eddie Van Halen" is the closest readers will ever get to hearing his side of the story when it comes to his extraordinary life.

Brad Tolinski was the Editor-in-Chief of Guitar World magazine, the best-selling magazine for musicians in the world, for over 25 years. He is also the author of "Light & Shade: Conversations with Jimmy Page" and "Play it Loud: An Epic History of the Style", "Sound and Revolution of the Electric Guitar", which was the inspiration for the Play It Loud exhibition at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in 2019. He lives in New York.

Chris Gill was the Editor-in-Chief of Guitar Aficionado magazine and a regular contributor to Guitar World magazine. He is also the author of "Guitar Legends: The Definitive Guide to the World’s Greatest Guitar Players", and he contributed extensive guitar background and historical text to "Eric Clapton’s Six String Stories" and "Jeff Beck’s Beck 01: Hot Rods and Rock & Roll".

The Booked On Rock Music: “Whoosh” & “Nasty” by Crowander (https://www.crowander.com)

With extensive, first-hand reflections from Geddy Lee, Alex Lifeson, and Neil Peart, as well as from family, friends, and fellow musicians, "Anthem: Rush in the ’70s" is a detailed portrait of Canada’s greatest rock ambassadors. The first of three books in the "Rush Across The Decades" series, "Anthem" puts the band’s catalog, from their self-titled debut to 1978’s 'Hemispheres' into both Canadian and general pop culture context, and presents the trio of quintessentially dependable, courteous Canucks as generators of incendiary, groundbreaking rock ’n’ roll.

Fighting complacency, provoking thought, and often enraging critics, Rush has been at war with the music industry since 1974, when they were first dismissed as the Led Zeppelin of the north. "Anthem", like each volume in this series, celebrates the perseverance of Geddy, Alex, and Neil: three men who maintained their values while operating from a Canadian base, throughout lean years, personal tragedies, and the band’s eventual worldwide success.

Martin Popoff has written close to 100 books on hard rock, heavy metal, classic rock and record collecting. He was Editor in Chief of the now retired Brave Words & Bloody Knuckles, Canada’s foremost heavy metal publication in print for fourteen years, and has also contributed to Revolver, Guitar World, Goldmine, Record Collector, bravewords.com, lollipop.com and hardradio.com. Martin has been a regular contractor to Banger Films, having worked on the award-winning documentary "Rush: Beyond the Lighted Stage", the eleven-episode "Metal Evolution", and the ten-episode "Rock Icons", both for VH1 Classic. Martin currently resides in Toronto and can be reached through [email protected] or martinpopoff.com.

PROGRAMMING NOTE: This interview was originally recorded around January of 2020 for my previous podcast DISCovery, this was shortly after the passing of Rush drummer Neal Peart.

The Booked On Rock Music: “Whoosh” & “Nasty” by Crowander (https://www.crowander.com)

"Metallica: The $24.95 Book" features an in-depth look at Metallica's cultural significance with chapters devoted to each member, each album, touring, fashion, books, film, influences, fandom, and more, exploring the band's ideologies along the way.

With over 125 million records sold worldwide, Metallica is the biggest metal band of all time. Four decades into their unparalleled career, Metallica is a massive cultural force who drastically changed the sound of popular music by creating their own rules. Yet for all their popularity, Metallica can seem impenetrable, raising more questions and inspiring more discourse as their mythos grows.

Metallica questions run deeper than what people find on the internet. Metallica questions deserve a book. "Metallica: The $24.95 Book" by dedicated fan and music journalist Ben Apatoff is that book, honoring Metallica’s history of fighting retail price gouging in the title. Apatoff provides an in-depth look at the band and their music that both die-hard fans and Metallica beginners can enjoy.

Ben Apatoff is a New York writer and educator whose work has appeared in Metal Injection, MetalSucks and the Morbid Anatomy Museum. He was born the summer Metallica released Kill ’Em All.

The Booked On Rock Music: “Whoosh” & “Nasty” by Crowander (https://www.crowander.com)

Throughout the 1990s, Dave Thompson was the Seattle-based contributing editor to Alternative Press magazine—America's biggest-selling and most influential alternative rock monthly—and a regular contributor to other publications both nationally and internationally.

Throughout this decade, grunge music ruled the world and Seattle was its birthplace and focal point. Thompson was an eyewitness to it all. His writings and interviews chronicled the entire history of grunge—from its roots in the earliest explosion of punk in the mid-1970s to its rise and ultimate fall from grace in the late 1990s.

Drawing from Thompson's extensive experience and research—from personal files and journals and hours of interviews with both musicians and fans, other music industry figures, and a wealth of characters from the Seattle scene—"The Grunge Diaries" is an exhaustive account of this unique era.

Featured are all of the major acts—Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Mudhoney, Soundgarden—and many lesser known bands and artists. But it's not only about the music, the fashions, and the personalities that still resonate today. "The Grunge Diaries" also tells the tale of the end of an era in American history—twentieth-century music culture's last hurrah before the dot-com monsters (many of whom were themselves based in Seattle) devoured its soul and faceless corporations rebranded entertainment. These were the days when fame was still within reach of anyone who knew three chords and had three friends.

Dave Thompson is the author of over 150 books, including co-written memoirs with New York Doll Sylvain Sylvain, Motown legends Brian and Eddie Holland, Hawkwind's Nik Turner, the Yardbirds' Jim McCarty, Fairport Convention's Judy Dyble, and more. He’s a columnist for Goldmine magazine, and his work has also appeared in Rolling Stone, Spin, Alternative Press, Mojo, Record Collector, and many other major publications. He has contributed to music documentaries produced by VH-1, A&E, the BBC, and others. Born in the UK, Thompson is now a resident of Delaware.

The Booked On Rock Music: “Whoosh” & “Nasty” by Crowander (https://www.crowander.com)

If Genesis, according to British comedian and fan, Al Murray "were the progressive rock band who progressed", then Peter Gabriel, once solo, would be the one who progressed the most. Who would have thought listening to early Genesis would eventually take the listener to Senegal, Armenia, South Africa and beyond via the artistic endeavors of their former vocalist?

This is a journey through Peter Gabriel's solo albums, his live recordings and soundtrack compositions. During his forty-year plus solo career, Gabriel has become a worldwide pop star with his early, self-titled albums and his seminal 1986 record 'So'. He’s had hit singles throughout his career, including "Big Time" and the poignant "In Your Eyes". He also helped pioneer video creativity with the song "Sledgehammer". In doing so, he’s reached beyond his progressive rock background to achieve a level of respect that other musicians from that genre could only dream about. You may have heard many of these songs before, but there's always something new to be found by digging in the dirt. This is the prefect guide to his music for new listeners and long term fans alike.

Graeme Scarfe is a freelance writer. He was born in the 1960's, educated in the comprehensive system in the 1970's & 1980's and graduated from Bournemouth University in the 1990's. He’s worked as a music journalist, sound recordist, stand-up comedian and Film & Media lecturer. He wrote the original screenplay for the 1999 British Horror film "Lighthouse" and the comedy novels "Arable Farm" and "Seagulls on Speed". Grame is married with two children and lives in Sussex.

The Booked On Rock Music: “Whoosh” & “Nasty” by Crowander (https://www.crowander.com)

It all started in London. More than fifty years ago, a generation of teens created something that would change the face of music forever.

London, Reign Over Me immerses us in the backroom clubs, basement record shops, and late-night faint radio signals of 1960s Britain, where young hopefuls like Peter Frampton, Dave Davies, and Mick Jagger built off American blues and jazz to form a whole new sound. Author Stephen Tow weaves together original interviews with over ninety musicians and movers-and-shakers of the time to uncover the uniquely British story of classic rock’s birth.

Capturing the stark contrast of bursting artistic energy with the blitzkrieg landscape leftover from World War II, London, Reign Over Me reveals why classic rock ‘n’ roll could only have been born in London. A new sound from a new generation, this music helped spark the most important cultural transformation of the twentieth century.

Tow features interviews with a long list of artists including:
•Jon Anderson, Rick Wakement & Steve Howe of (Yes)
•Ian Anderson (Jethro Tull)
•Rod Argent (The Zombies)
•Dave Davies (The Kinks)
•Spencer Davis (Spencer Davis Group)
•Peter Frampton (Humble Pie, solo artist)
•Roger Glover (Deep Purple)
•Kenney Jones (The Small Faces; The Who)
•Greg Lake (King Crimson; Emerson, Lake & Palmer)
•Manfred Mann (Manfred Mann)
•Dave Mason (Traffic)
•John Mayall (The Bluesbreakers)
•Ian McLagan of (The Small Faces)
•Carl Palmer (Atomic Rooster; Emerson, Lake & Palmer)
•Paul Rodgers (Free & Bad Company)

Among many, many more...

Stephen Tow teaches history at Delaware Valley University, specializing in rock n roll and twentieth-century America. He is the author of "The Strangest Tribe: How a Group of Seattle Rock Bands Invented Grunge" and resides near Philadelphia with his wife, daughter, and two dogs.
