Episode Andy Kershaw & Dylan’s jar of jam plus the things people do to get gigs
Be glad for the pod has no ending! Now in our 20th year and, this week, ruminating fondly on the following …
… the “underhand” selling of Geese
… Morrissey’s absurd whinge about the Salford Lads Club photo
… Jay Leno’s $50 ruse to get comedy gigs
… when bands “didn’t even know what a hotel was”
… radio sessions in Andy Kershaw’s flat
… what’s the point of the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame?
… when has any aspect of the entertainment business EVER been “fair”?
… “Four eyes, one vision!” Elvis Costello busking in Park Lane
… the great Supremes records after Diana Ross
… Focus, 10cc, Devo, Zappa, the Shadows and other musical dead-ends
... Ronnie Wood and … Beverley Knight?
…. “Shove off, Phil Collins! And have you got your Barley Sugars?”
… and birthday guest Stephen Lambe about why Focus are largely forgotten.
