- Love That Album podcast Episode 103 - Sienna Dahlen "Ice Age Paradise"
Welcome to episode 103 of Love That Album podcast.
In July 2017, I went with my family to the other side if the world - Canada to be precise - to take in the magnificent musical experience that is the Montreal Jazz Festival. We heard jazz fusion, free jazz,bop, soul, New Orleans funk, bluegrass.....and then there's the shimmering beauty that is the music of the Juno-winning British Columbian songwriter, Sienna Dahlen. Her performance with a rhythm section, a string section and a horn section in front of hundreds (maybe thousands) of music fans in the Place Des Arts was nothing short of breathtaking.I was astounded to learn that her latest album Ice Age Paradise, from which the concert material was sourced, was recorded in a mere two days. Upon my return to Australia, I contacted Sienna to discuss her album, her musical development, and winter.I was also fortunate that her father Laine was with her. Laine is an amazing artist and a songwriter to boot - one of his songs appears on Ice Age Paradise. It was a fascinating chat and I hope that you enjoy it and discovering her music.Eric Reanimator returns with his Album I Love segment to talk about Carla Bozulich and her track-for-track interpretation of the classic Willie Nelson album Red Headed Stranger (and Willie is so impressed, he even graces her with his presence on three songs).You can download the show by searching for Love That Album in the iTunes store or downloading streaming directly from http://lovethatalbum.blogspot.com.Send the show feedback at [email protected] (written or mp3 voicemail) or join the Facebook group at http://www.facebook.com/groups/lovethatalbum.You can order a download copy of Ice Age Paradise from https://siennadahlen1.bandcamp.com/releases or you can email her at [email protected] to order a physical copy of the album (either CD or vinyl).

1 hr 18 min - Love That Album: The Compilation Edition Episode 42- Summer Crafts
Welcome to episode 42 of Love That Album – The Compilation Edition. It's August 2017 and in the Northern Hemisphere, it's hot, so it's time for summer break and back to school and all of that...Before summer leaves, Eric has a pair of 1990s horror film soundtracks to talk about.
Both feature the band “Our Lady Peace”, covers of songs by famous bands and a song writing duo people know, along with bands from the era people recall for one or two hits. Either way sometimes you just have to time travel to 1996 or 1997 and revisit the sounds that conjure those moments and were also featured in either The Craft or I Know What You Did Last Summer.You can download the show by searching for Love That Album in the iTunes store or downloading streaming directly from http://lovethatalbum.blogspot.comSend the show feedback at [email protected] (written or mp3 voicemail) or join the Facebook group at http://www.facebook.com/groups/lovethatalbumLearn more about your ad choices.

26 min - Love That Album podcast Episode 102 - The Vines "Highly Evolved"For Episode 102 of Love That Album, Maurice is taking a break and Dave Blom is taking over the LTA airwaves.The Vines debut 2002 album Highly Evolved marked the start of the latest big wave of Australian Rock Music. The Vines like other bands of the era followed a similar trajectory of instantly becoming the top Australian rock act and having a big first album, a moderate second album, before fading from these lofty heights. Still like other Australian bands of a similar vintage, they are still playing gigs and putting out albums. So flip your sneaker off, slap it on your face and tune in to the sound of Nirvana mixed with the Beatles that is The Vines.HUGE thanks to Dave for bringing this great episode to your earholes. He will be doing another one before too long.You can download the show by searching for Love That Album in the iTunes store or downloading streaming directly from http://lovethatalbum.blogspot.com.Send the show feedback at [email protected] (written or mp3 voicemail) or join the Facebook group at http://www.facebook.com/groups/lovethatalbumIf you enjoy what you hear, please tell a friend or ten to tune in.

29 min - Love That Album podcast Episode 101 - Died Pretty's "Lost" and The Encyclopedia of Australian Rock and Pop
Welcome episode 101 of Love That Album podcast.
Ian McFarlane is one of Australia’s most authoritative and respected music journalists and historians. He’s been writing about rock music for many years in newspapers like The Australian and Juke as well as fanzines like Prehistoric Sounds. In the 1990s he wrote the definitive guide to the history of Australian popular music, “The Encyclopedia of Australian Rock and Pop”, published by Allen and Unwin. Homes of rock fans had well thumbed copies of the book and in 2017, Ian has finally released the second edition of the encyclopedia to bring it up to date.I was thrilled to welcome Ian onto the show to discuss the book, his motivation for updating it in the internet era when facts (alternative or otherwise) can be found easily online, and some interesting details from our rock heritage. This must be the only book where attention will be given to both Delta Goodrem and The Lime Spiders, the Chantoozies and Radio Birdman.We then go on to talk about one of Ian’s most favourite rock albums, “Lost” by Sydney band Died Pretty. This was the second album from the band, and the discussion ranges from how it differs from their early work, the band’s punk and Paisley underground influences, how one of the greatest songwriters in the country (actually… in the world) improved one of their songs without even knowing who they were, and much much more.Eric Reanimator’s “Album I Love” segment focuses on a band from Arizona in the US called The Naked Prey and their record Under The Blue Marlin….not Australian, but musically a very compatible band to Died Pretty, so a worthy companion piece.I love doing this podcast, primarily for the great conversations I have with other folks who love music and know a lot about its history. Ian was a fantastic co-host in this regard, and I look forward to him coming back to the show again soon.You can download the show by searching for Love That Album in the iTunes store or downloading streaming directly from http://lovethatalbum.blogspot.com.

2 hr 14 min - Love That Album: The Compilation Edition Episode 40 - Warp Ghetto Punk
'Ello Kiddies. Northern American summer's here and it's time to take a trip - a trip 2000s style with some punk and garage music. Direct from the thrift store, Eric covers a couple of Punk and Garage comps he saved from the bins. First up, a couple of comps from the Warp Tour, a shoe company-sponsored run around the USA featuring mainly US punk bands from the 90s. There's some names you'll know and some you may not. The important thing is these comps are all about music for driving in the car and blasting at 3AM to get the cops to come and visit.
Eric also presents a compilation of Detroit bands from the 90s and 2000s. Once again there will be some names you'll know and some you won't but all good stuff. This comp was sponsored by a local craft brewery... Ghetto Blaster.You can download the show by searching for Love That Album in the iTunes store or downloading streaming directly from http://lovethatalbum.blogspot.comSend the show feedback at [email protected] (written or mp3 voicemail) or join the Facebook group at http://www.facebook.com/groups/lovethatalbumLearn more about your ad choices.

27 min - Love That Album: The Compilation Edition Episode 39 - May 2017 Spring Cleaning
It's that time of year. The seasons are changing and Eric is committed to spring cleaning. In this case, it's gonna be some digital cleaning as he finally gets around to talking about some compilations from artists that he has been sitting on and meaning to talk about. Maybe he’s already played tracks from or mentioned more than a few of these…but then he’s going to throw in a couple of tracks from new albums that he’s still exploring.
Starting it all off is some tunes from the 60s garage group The Music Machine, followed by….. well….an artist who I never thought Eric would cover – tune in to find out who it is. Then, he discusses a group from Portland called the The Jolenes and finally recommends some new records he’s digging.Enjoy.You can download the show by searching for Love That Album in the iTunes store or downloading streaming directly from http://lovethatalbum.blogspot.comSend the show feedback at [email protected] (written or mp3 voicemail) or join the Facebook group at http://www.facebook.com/groups/lovethatalbumLearn more about your ad choices.

25 min - Love That Album podcast - Episode 100 - John Hiatt's "Bring The Family" (redux)
Bring out the fanfare music.
Roll out the red carpet.…..or maybe just download the podcast….please….Love That Album turns 100 episodes old.Back in 2011, I started the podcast to talk with folks about great records (and maybe a couple of not so great ones….). There have also been interviews with authors of music biographies, musicians, but at the heart of it, this has been a forum for me to chat with fellow music freaks about why we love the albums we do. Many more similar podcasts have been created in recent times, and I’m thrilled that the podcast format is being used to focus on my very favourite art form.I am joined by Geoff Smith (who has been a regular on the program from the very early days) and LTA-first-timer, Dave Anderson to discuss John Hiatt’s “Bring The Family” (an album that SHOULD have been the subject of a podcast back in episode 2 – we explain why it wasn’t, if you aren’t already familiar with the story). We discuss Hiatt history, early records, family tragedy, Little Village, the connection to James Reyne….and hamsters and amoebae (as you do)…..and a ton of other things.LTA stalwart Eric Reanimator brings his Album I Love segment to talk about the Glenn Danzig project, Samhain, and the album, Initium.Look, I wanted to make a big deal of the 100 episode milestone, but it’s business as usual (no…not the Men At Work record). HOWEVER, if you want to celebrate the show, PLEASE spread the word by either writing a review on iTunes or share this post on your social media platform of choice.I’d be mighty grateful.You can download the show by searching for Love That Album in the iTunes store or downloading streaming directly from http://lovethatalbum.blogspot.com.

1 hr 56 min - Love That Album: The Compilation Edition Episode 38 - Roots of Alt Rock Class of 1990
Alt Rock... the early 90s style came from somewhere. Its incursion on MTV and Rock Radio didn’t come out of nowhere. It was just time for a change, but there were those who bridged the gap and moved the needle more left on the dial (‘Mats reference) and in many ways set the stage for the Pearl Jams, the Nirvanas, REMs and Alice In Chains of the world… and some of those bands were fans of these guys….
All of this is to say that Eric Reanimator is back talking once again about Queensryche, King’s X and Drivin’n’Cryin (don’t worry he will be back to Punk, Country and Country Punk soon enough). Anyway Eric talks about a time a quarter of a century ago when for a moment (mainly late 1990 and into 1991) those three bands made the charts, had a few hits and had videos on MTV. So sit back, strap yourself in, and time travel back to the early nineties.You can download the show by searching for Love That Album in the iTunes store or downloading streaming directly from http://lovethatalbum.blogspot.comSend the show feedback at [email protected] (written or mp3 voicemail) or join the Facebook group at http://www.facebook.com/groups/lovethatalbumLearn more about your ad choices.

35 min - Love That Album podcast Episode 99 - Chris Wilson "Landlocked"
Episode 99 of Love That Album podcast is available for your enjoyment….and I’m really happy with this one.
For this episode, I present an interview I did with Chris Wilson on the 25th anniversary of his first album post-Crown of Thorns, Landlocked. Chris is a triple threat. He is among Australia’s greatest harmonica players (and has played on sessions for some of the greatest performers in Australian rock music). He has an incredible and distinctive baritone voice that can be mighty and booming or tender and gentle. Finally, he is the equal of any of the greatest songwriters in Australia with a gift for poetic but earthy lyrics and great melodies. If you’re a fan of Don Walker, Paul Kelly, or even Captain Beefheart or Tom Waits, you need to give Chris a listen.We spend some time talking about the 1992 album Landlocked, but also touch upon the Melbourne pub band scene of the era, his songwriting and blues heroes, and how Crowded House asked Chris to do something that invoked the displeasure of the great Vika Bull. Download the show to find out what it was.Eric Reanimator returns with his “Album I Love” segment to hip you to the country side of The Groovie Ghoulies in their guise as The Haints. He talks about their 2004 album Hurt & Alone.I hope you enjoy episode 99…..that’s one less than episode 100….which is next month….just puttin’ that out there….You can download the show by searching for Love That Album in the iTunes store or downloading streaming directly from http://lovethatalbum.blogspot.com.
