185. SONIC BOOM (A.K.A. PETE KEMBER)) REVEALS THE FULL STORY BEHIND SPACEMEN 3 AND RATES ALL THEIR RECORDS (PART 3: PLAYING WITH FIRE, PERFORMANCE, & DREAMWEAPON) Dec 13, 2024

Show notes

With Dave’s Mom undergoing home hospice and then passing away during the taping of this series, this 6 1/2 hour interview literalizes the ego-death slant of this classic psych band's lyrics. Whether or not you’re on drugs, Spacemen 3 has the absolute best music to keep you grounded during life’s rollercoaster freakouts.

Here’s just a few of the many things Pete and I discuss in this podcast:

The very moment when the rot and discontent began infiltrating the Spacemen 3 world;
Why the band’s relationship with their record company came limping out of the gate right from the go;
The origin of the band’s “no girls on the bus” policy;
How Pete really feels about Spiritualized;
Not to mention a fascinating deep-dive on Playing With Fire, and the twin live documents Performance and Dreamweapon!

The secret behind Jason Pierce’s early lyric-writing technique (a Director’s Cut exclusive);

183. SONIC BOOM (A.K.A. PETE KEMBER)) REVEALS THE FULL STORY BEHIND SPACEMEN 3 AND RATES ALL THEIR RECORDS (PART 1: THE EARLY DAZE) Nov 29, 2024

Show notes

With Dave’s Mom undergoing home hospice during the taping of this episode, this 6 1/2 hour interview series literalizes the ego-death slant of this classic psych band's lyrics. Whether or not you’re on drugs, Spacemen 3 has the absolute best music to keep you grounded during life’s rollercoaster freakouts.

Here’s just a few of the many things Pete and I discuss in this podcast:

The creative advantages of favoring electric razor and washing machine sounds to band-created music as his building blocks of influence;
His early days at art college, as his friendship with Jason Pierce started shooting out sparks;
And a Discograffiti first: a narcotics deep-dive during which Pete reveals the substances that had the largest influence on the Spacemen 3 sound.
Not to mention, in a Director’s Cut exclusive, a convincing diatribe on the life-sustaining power of plant farts.

182. THE RIGHTEOUS BROTHERS’ BILL MEDLEY REVEALS THE FULL STORY BEHIND THE GROUP'S HISTORY AND THEIR SONGS (PART 2) Nov 22, 2024

Show notes

I’m going to let Bill Medley explain why this one’s a must-hear: “This is one of the most unbelievable interviews I’ve ever done in my life, and I appreciate it, and I thank you—I can retire now. It’s been an honor, it’s been a lot of fun. You’ve asked me a lot of questions that I’ve never been asked before, and probably brought more out of me than I wanted to give--or should give--but hey, it is what it is, and I love you for it.”

Here’s just some of the many things Bill and I touch on in this podcast:

The real reason why he actually left The Righteous Brothers back in 1968;
His hilarious three-month-long love affair with marijuana in 1970;
What inspired their 1974 reunion;
And unforgettable, heartbreaking details of Bobby Hatfield’s death scene, onto which Bill stumbled in 2003.

181. THE RIGHTEOUS BROTHERS’ BILL MEDLEY REVEALS THE FULL STORY BEHIND THE GROUP'S HISTORY AND THEIR SONGS (PART 1) Nov 15, 2024

Show notes

BILL MEDLEY: “This is one of the most unbelievable interviews I’ve ever done in my life, and I appreciate it, and I thank you—I can retire now. It’s been an honor, it’s been a lot of fun. You’ve asked me a lot of questions that I’ve never been asked before, and probably brought more out of me than I wanted to give--or should give--but hey, it is what it is, and I love you for it.”

Here’s just some of the many things Bill and I touch on in this podcast:

An in-depth discussion about their plan to have Phil Spector produce only the singles, while—believe it or not—Bill himself produced absolutely everything else;
How they dealt with a management proposal from Brian Epstein after leaving The Beatles tour;
A tremendous kitchen-sink-deep-dive into “You’ve Lost That Lovin’ Feelin’”;
The Righteous Brothers song that we share as our all-time favorite;
And an explicitly candid conversation about the damage Phil Spector did to the Brothers’ relationship.

180. TSUNAMI'S JENNY TOOMEY & KRISTEN THOMSON REVEAL THE FULL STORY BEHIND THE GROUP'S HISTORY & RATE ALL THEIR OWN RECORDS (DEEP END, THE HEART'S TREMOLO, A BRILLIANT MISTAKE, & ALL THEIR SINGLES) Nov 08, 2024

Show notes

Jenny Toomey & Kristin Thomson—arguably the two women most responsible for the ceaseless onslaught of incredible indie music in the 1990s due to the Simple Machines Records label and their explosively powerful band Tsunami—go head-to-head-to-head with Discograffiti during an unprecedented 3-hour interview during which they discuss the entirety of their catalog, which thankfully is being reissued today by Numero Group in a lovingly compiled box set entitled Loud Is As. Do yourself a big favor and get yourself one.

Here’s just some of the many things Jenny, Kristen, and I touch on in this podcast:

The story of how and why their label Simple Machines Records came to be;
A track-by-track discographical discussion of everything they’ve ever released;
And why the band finally decided to initially call it a day.

179. HOWARD JONES REVEALS THE FULL STORY BEHIND HIS 12-YEAR ROAD TO OVERNIGHT SUCCESS Nov 01, 2024

Show notes

In a Discograffiti first, my interview with Howard Jones focuses exclusively on the decade-plus period when he followed his musical dreams while the universe ignored him almost completely. The Director’s Cut on our Patreon page also includes an in-depth, 30-minute, track-by-track discussion of his masterful debut, Humans Lib.

Here’s just some of the many things Howard and I touch on in this podcast:

Rare details on Howard’s very first band, the 1971 prog outfit Warrior;
Why the manager who broke him internationally initially turned him down before changing his mind;
And the ways in which Howard was able to stay grounded when an explosion of superstardom followed over a decade of obscurity!

178. PRODUCER BOB EZRIN REVEALS THE FULL STORY BEHIND MC5’S HEAVY LIFTING & THE ART OF THE ROCK OPERA Oct 25, 2024

Show notes

This sequel to the Tom Morello MC5 episode goes deep on an exploration of the just-released Heavy Lifting LP, along with its producer, the great Bob Ezrin, producer of such classics as Pink Floyd’s The Wall, Kiss’s Destroyer, and Alice Cooper’s Billion Dollar Babies.

Here’s just some of the many things Bob and I touch on in this podcast:

Bob’s work as the king of the rock opera, specifically on Lou Reed’s Berlin, about which I was able to ask him a question I’ve been literally waiting to ask since I was 14 years old (this section is only available in The Director’s Cut of this episode);
The fascinating story of how this record started off as a Wayne Kramer film project and wound up transforming into an MC5 LP;
Plus, a deep-dive discussion about the brand-new, yet final MC5 record, Heavy Lifting!

177. TOM MORELLO REVEAL REVEALS THE FULL STORY BEHIND THE MC5 & RATES ALL THEIR RECORDS (KICK OUT THE JAMS, BACK IN THE USA, HIGH TIME, & HEAVY LIFTING) Oct 18, 2024

Show notes

Rage Against The Machine’s Tom Morello was part of the powerhouse unit that recorded Heavy Lifting, The MC5’s first album in 53 years. In this unforgettable podcast, Tom pays tribute to both the band and the recently departed Wayne Kramer, the band’s legendary guitarist/songwriter and his close personal friend.

Here’s just some of the many things Tom and I touch on in this podcast:

Why Tom feels that the MC5 are the spiritual forebears to Rage Against The Machine;
A moving glimpse into Tom and Wayne’s friendship and the far-reaching work they did with Jail Guitar Doors;
Plus, incendiary discussions about their early singles, Kick Out The Jams, Back In The USA, High Time, and their incredible new opus, Heavy Lifting!

Don’t miss next week’s podcast with Heavy Lifting producer Bob Ezrin, as we continue our celebration of The MC5!

176. ROBERT SCHNEIDER FROM THE APPLES IN STEREO REVEALS THE FULL STORY BEHIND THE STRAWBERRY ALARM CLOCK & RATES THEIR RECORDS (PART 2: WORLD IN A SEA SHELL, GOOD MORNING STARSHINE & THE FINAL 45s) Oct 11, 2024

Show notes

Talking with Robert Schneider is like riding a rollercoaster that’s not quite tethered to its track—with all the thrills an experience like that portends, and none of the danger. Needless to say, collaborating with him on this show has been one of the most invigorating experiences of my life.

Here’s just some of the many things Robert and I touch on in this podcast:

An imagined series of reasonings to explain why The Strawberry Alarm Clock would choose to leapfrog from string-laden hippie elevator music to blues rock;
An incredibly intimate rendering of a “Good Morning Starshine”-based jingle that served as young Robert’s very first hit;
And wildly caffeinated rundowns of the Good Morning Starshine LP, not to mention (in a Director’s Cut exclusive)the slew of incredible 45s that marked the end of the line for the band!
