By Luke Jones - Music and podcast producer
The podcast currently has 23 episodes available.
When Luke receives some constructive criticism via an email from a fan, he finds himself pondering a dilemma that has plagued artists and entertainers since the dawn of time......Should you give the audience what it wants?
In this journey, he contemplates the clever market positioning achieved by the lyrical content of songs by Kanye West, Nirvana and LMFAO, the live performances of Bob Dylan, Weezer and Chesney Hawks and a pivotal scene from the movie LA LA LAND.
Doing all this causes him to finally blurt out one of the central myths of the music industry.
Tune in to find out more!!!!

In 1996, Luke bought a grunge album called "Juice".
It was one of the greatest rock albums of all time.
He had found out about the album, after it was given a great review in KERRANG magazine.
That was the last time Luke ever heard anything about the band.
Almost 30 years later, Luke tracks down the band members to ask them....What happen to SEND NO FLOWERS?
Join Luke as he once again, discusses the "behind closed doors" workings of record labels and the brutal reality that is...."The Music Industry".
Here are some links to things that Luke recommends in this series, including the amazing album "JUICE" by SEND NO FLOWERS

Having made the comment that he doesn't think that music streaming platforms represent a particularly lucrative opportunity for composers and songwriters, music producer Luke Jones, begins to lay out his opinions on alternative ways to monetise music.
This involves him remembering a phone call from the year 2000 and explaining the awkward financial realities surrounding the cost of releasing music in the pre-streaming era.
Why did 80’s pop act “Frankie Goes to Hollywood” make so little money compared to music industry legend Kate Bush?

Almost 18 months into making this documentary podcast series, music producer Luke Jones was approached by a journalist, who wanted a comment from a music industry professional for an article.
Secretly overjoyed that FINALLY people were considering him a valuable industry commentator, he was quickly dissappointed to learn, that the article was yet another piece about the poor financial returns artists receive from streaming platforms.
So what is ACTUALLY going on with this issue?
Are artists and musicians being completely ripped-off, or is the issue a bit more complicated than it first appears?
Luke investigates!

One thing you rarely hear in the music business, is an honest account of how a band ACTUALLY got signed.
Loads of acts are happy to talk about themselves and their music, but often their biography cuts from "we met in high school and started jamming"....to "....and then Sony released our album".
I don't know about you...but it's the bit inbetween that interests me!
So when I met a young musician who had been signed by the music industry legend Alan McGee, I jumped at the chance to interview him!
In this episode, I chat to musician Arwel Brown about his band Young Garbo and how they signed to the new incarnation of Creation Records.
In the process, we end up mentioning Adele, Oasis, Scott Weiland, Teenage Fanclub, Primal Scream, Charli XCX and the concept of a rock star.
Here are some links to things that Luke recommends, including all of the bands in which Arwel Brown is currently involved with!
