The Stray Cats reawakened the love of Rockabilly in so many people who were "too young" to know the music in its first iteration! Their drummer, "Slim Jim" Phantom joins The Imbalanced Brothers this week for a chat about the music, his podcast ("Rockabilly Confidential available via his web site, Apple, Spotify and wherever you get podcasts), AND his role as "your honest mechanic" on satellite via Little Steven's Underground Garage (Sundays, 8pm on Sirius/XM Ch. 21)!

Our mutual love of Eddie Cochran sparks the chat, and away we go!!! Talking about Lemmy (and their project, Head Cat), Carl (Perkins), "Georgie" (Harrison), Bob Dylan's advice, and so much more fun in this week's episode!

Punk Rock Month '22 wraps up with a new, completely gobby episode all about the one and only, Sex Pistols! The Imbalanced Brothers always mock Johnny Rotten, but it's done lovingly (sic), most of the time! He, along with Steve, Glen, Cookie, and, of course, Sid combined forces for one big noise, but the aftershocks lasted for years!

Like a massive Punk tsunami, the Pistols' shadow covers a lot of bands, and sounds, which came after their noisy, f*cked up arrival! And props must be given to their Svengali, Malcolm McLaren, who is a huge part of this week's story.

What a great episode to wrap up the second edition of Punk Rock Month, with ideas for '23 already poppin' up!
