'60s '70s '80s - Warm, Candid, Classic, Rock Interviews with Music Legends - A BREATH OF FRESH AIR

The Cowsills, KT Tunstall and Pavlov's Dog David Surkamp


Listen Later

It's a mixed bag this week that I think, has something for everyone.  We meet 60s family band THE COWSILLS, or at least what's left of them - Bob, Paul and Susan Cowsill. The siblings have recently released a brand new album - their first in 30 years and I gotta say, it’s pretty good! I have a chat with them about their lives growing up in the public eye, about being the role models for the TV show, The Partridge Family and about the reasons behind why all of the Cowsill kids always got on so well together.


We also check in with a young lady who found success at the age of 27. Scottish singer, songwriter and musician, KT TUNSTALL initially gained worldwide acclaim with the song 'Suddenly I See' but as you’ll hear, she's come an awful long way since then. As KT and I catch up, she's in the middle of dying her hair grey. Initially embarrassed to appear on camera, she finally agreed and I can't believe how amazing she looks. You'll have to check her out on my youtube channel. It’s an intimate chat about her life, her loves and her incredible music.

Remember Pavlov's Dog? That 70s band who had a massive hit with the song ‘Julia’? If you grew up in the UK, Canada or Australia you just weren’t cool unless you could sing every line and had the album sitting in the front of your collection. The band, although hailing from the US, didn't do quite so well at home. We go behind that song to chat with founder David Surkamp. He has some fascinating stories to tell! And who knew the band still plays and tours today? I certainly didn't.
