Pantheon - Podcasts for Music Lovers

Easybeats April continues at LTA HQ. Welcome to episode 165 of Love That Album.

On the last episode, I spoke with author Jeff Apter about his book Friday On My Mind: The Life of George Young. His book looks at Young as musician with The Easybeats, and Young as songwriter and producer for Alberts Productions after the band broke up.

This time around, I am joined by host of Let It Roll podcast, “Kid” Nathan Wilcox to discuss the actual music of The Easybeats. Of course as in any of these shows, we had digressions to talk about the band's history, art versus commercial reality, and much conjecture as to why the band didn't translate to Beatlesque levels of popularity outside of Australia beyond THAT one hit single.

Rather than discuss a specific album of the Easybeats catalogue, Nate and I selected 5 songs each from the excellent Glenn A. Baker double LP compilation from 1980, "Absolute Anthology 1965 to 1969". We discussed the songs in order (mostly) of release to present an arc of the band that went from recording songs in a rock and roll vein, to one that became more experimental with their sounds to one that returned back to their rock and roll roots by the end. In discussing these songs, Nate and I try to make sense of their development. I had an absolute blast recording this episode and I hope you enjoy this as much as we did.

Let It Roll (also part of the Pantheon family) is dedicated to the discussion of recorded music history via conversations with authors of music related books. At two episodes per week, the number of books Nate reads and researches is staggering. The subject matter is diverse – Bob Marley, the Brill Building, Texas gospel, and the mob's involvement in the music business are just skimming the surface of what's offered in Let It Roll.

In 1978, the US saw the debut of one of the greatest guitar heroes of all time, Eddie Van Halen, However, across the pond another guitar god was releasing his first record as well - Mark Knopfler of Dire Straits. With his folksy songwriting, authentic vocal style and masterful, finger-picking guitar style, Dire Straits 1978 debut showed us what this little band from the north of England were made of.

Not as flashy as a Van Halen or maybe as intricate as a Steve Howe but every bit as passionate, Mark Knopfler established himself as one of the premier guitar players of his generation. Whether picking on his Fender Stratocaster or the steel acoustic Old National, Knopfler creates country, folk and rock soundscapes with inspired guitar work and a storytelling style that is very relatable.

You may not be able to hear this album and think that in 7 short years they'd have a worldwide success in Brothers in Arms but you can see the foundational talent that would allow them to grow into that kind of achievement. What kind of characters do you see walking around London? A drunken old sailor? A snobby watitess? A ten pence band with a million pound name? Knopfler's rich stories create images that transport you to another time and place yet allow you to relate to them on a very personal level.Ugly American Werewolf in London Website

We're back to discuss all the happenings in the rock and metal world with Geekwire!

The drama in the Motley Crue camp just continues to heat up. Between Mick Mars' lawsuit, Nikki Sixx's disparaging response, Carmine Appice getting into the action, and the potential for new music from the band, there's a lot to cover. We share our take on this situation.

KISS' End of the Road tour continues to roll on but not without some speed bumps. In a recent show, Gene Simmons had to take a seat during the band's set due to dehydration. We discuss our thoughts on where things stand with the band and what the future may hold.

Dolly Parton recently welcomed Nikki Sixx as a guest on her upcoming rock album. We share our thoughts on the non-creative song list for this upcoming project.

Some good news in the Soundgarden world, as the dispute between Chris Cornell's widow and the surviving band members appears to have been settled.

Other stories covered this week include Cherie Currie's thoughts on the slim chance of a Runaways reunion, Ozzy Osbourne looking rough, Blackie Lawless fighting back issues, Mr. Big potentially recording new music, Richie Blackmore and Deep Purple reunion rumors, new Great White music, and much more!

We hope you enjoy Geekwire for the week of 04.21.23 and SHARE with a friend!

This week Tom & Zeus breakdown Ace Frehley's return interview on SiriusXM's Trunk Nation With Eddie Trunk where he stated he would spill KISS dirt if Paul Stanley didn't apologize.

As promised Ace Frehley returned to Eddie Trunk's show one week later to discus the latest KISS drama and had a surreal one hour conversation.

Did Paul Stanley apologize? Did Ace spill the dirt? Did someone actually steal Ace's "Pursuit Of Rock And Roll?"

The guys dissect this insane interview SIOL style. Yes with Ace impressions.

So once again whether you are in the KISS Camp or a proud member of the #AceCult you will not want to miss this!

WARNING STRONG OPINIONS GIVEN AGAIN!!!
