  • EPYSODE 17: "Out Of Nowhere", by Henry Schifter

    EPYSODE 17: "Out Of Nowhere", by Henry Schifter
    Nov 6 2024

    Guest: Henry Schifter.

    Here we have yet another album by an one-and-done artist.

    Henry was an American guitarist who released a few singles with a few labels in the sixties. He finally got the opportunity to record a full-length album in 1971, though he had to go to France to do it.

    He recorded a strong album, and one that should have warranted some follow ups but it never came to pass.

    Henry shares some great stories about the recording of the album, his run-in with Johnny Rivers (spolier alert: he didn't like him) and a great tale that includes a great looking belt, a pistol and weed. What a rock and roll trifecta!

    I hope you enjoy "Out Of Nowhere" as much as I do.

  • EPYSODE 16: "20 Granite Creek", by Moby Grape

    EPYSODE 16: "20 Granite Creek", by Moby Grape
    Oct 25 2024
    Guest: Moby Grape drummer Don Stevenson. Of all the great 60’s bands that came from the San Francisco area, Moby Grape may have been the best. Their 1967 debut album stands tall among the other giants released that year. Bad luck, terrible management decisions and a record company gaffe for the ages derailed all their momentum (wait until you hear Don’s ‘record company executive’ impression!). By 1969 they had called it quits. But they got the itch to get back together and record a standout album in their discography...the rare “reunion album” that’s actually good. And what happened afterwards? “Well, nobody cared”, Don said laughingly. Take a trip with Don and I as we discuss the formation, the demise, the-reformation, the demise, the re-reformation...well, you get the idea - of one of the greatest bands of the 1960’s and as we dive into each track of this wonderful yet underrated gem. I hope you dig "20 Granite Creek" as much as I do. -FJ ===ERRORS & OMISSIONS=== In this Epysode, I attributed the song "Ode To The Man At The End Of The Bar" to Bob Mosley, when in fact it was actually written by his brother Andy. ===LINKS=== We’d love your support.

  • EPYSODE 15: "Dragonfly", by Dragonfly

    EPYSODE 15: "Dragonfly", by Dragonfly
    Oct 8 2024

    Guest: Dragonfly guitarist Randy Russ.

    Hooking up with a couple of managers from California, they thought they were on their way to the big time. But while the band was living off a $12/day allowance, the managers were getting their cars reupholstered and buying custom-made alligator briefcases.

    They released one album as The Legend - a mediocre effort of cover tunes and songs from outside musicians thanks to decisions made by the management team. For the second time out though, it was a different story. Given creative freedom, they created a monster, guitar-centric, psychy-blues/rock gem. But continued battles with management resulted in the band breaking up before the album was even released. The label decided to release it under a new name ("Dragonfly"), with no band information on the cover. And just after it was released, the record company closed shop. An album by a defunct band with no record company released in a sleeve with no band information was destined to sink without a trace. One fantastic review at the time wasn't enough to save this one from obscurity.

    If you like your 60's rock loud, hard and heavy, crank it up and check this one out.

    I hope you dig Dragonfly as much as I do.

  • EPYSODE 14: "Red Hash", by Gary Higgins

    EPYSODE 14: "Red Hash", by Gary Higgins
    Sep 20 2024

    Guest: Gary Higgins.

    Here's the scenario: you've been convicted of a crime and have only a few weeks before you begin to serve your jail sentence. What would YOU do with that time?

    For Gary Higgins, that answer was simple: corrale your musical buddies and knock out a fantastic album. No time for rehearsal, just get in the studio, quickly work out the tunes and get 'em down. Gary had just enough time to complete the recordings before he changed his address to the Conneticut State Penitentiary. His pals completed the mixing, mastering, cover design and got a few hundred copies pressed. And then it sank into obscurity for decades...

    After completing his sentence Gary rebuilt his life, focusing on his family and his job as a nurse. Red Hash was in the rear view mirror...or so he thought. Decades later he started noticing his "lost classic" was commanding huge dollars. A push by Drag City Records to find Gary finally paid off and almost 40 years after quickly recording an album that hardly anyone heard, Red Hash got a proper re-release briging much deserved attention and critical acclaim to his music. It even allowed him to record a follow up album.

    My thanks to Gary for graciously taking time to walk down memory lane with me and talk about his wonderful album, his life and his career.

    I hope you dig the story of Red Hash as much as I do.

  • EPYSODE 13: "Fully Qualified Survivor", by Michael Chapman

    EPYSODE 13: "Fully Qualified Survivor", by Michael Chapman
    Sep 4 2024
    Guests: Andru Chapman, Bridget St. John & Steve Gunn. In this Epysode we delve into the career of an artist that spanned 5 decades, who recorded more than 50 albums, was adored by generations of musicians and who critics fawned over...yet hardly anyone knows his name. Michael was an immensely skilled guitarist and an excellent songwriter who released album after album to critical acclaim. Even his last albums - more than 50 years after his debut were considered among his best. Here was an artist who never settled, continually pushing musical boundaries...maybe that's why he remained on the fringes. Fully Qualified Survivor is universally considered his best album and we dive into it track by track, though an artist with this body of work has to be explored further, so we also make pit stops throughout the rest of his amazing career too. Michael Chapman is a name most people have never heard of and that's a shame, as I can't think of another artist with this amount of incredible work who is more deserving of recognition. I hope you dig Fully Qualified Survivor and the rest of Michael's incredible career as much as I do. -FJ ===LINKS=== If you like this show, consider supporting us on Patreon for as little as $1/month.

    EPYSODE 12: "The Rose Garden", by The Rose Garden
    Aug 23 2024

    Guests: Rose Garden bandmembers John Noreen and Bill Fleming.

    Mid 60's Los Angeles; a band called "The Blokes" were knocking out their versions of Beatles and note-for-note, immaculate copies of Byrds songs when a chance meeting with Gene Clark - who had just left the Byrds culminates with him joining the teenagers on stage for a couple of tunes. Next thing you know, he's giving them some of his songs and writes one specifically for them to record. He even considers managing them at one point.

    Adding a new lead singer, they change their name and record one folk-rock gem that spawns a hit and an appearance on American Bandstand. The future looks bright, but some poor management decisions combined with Uncle Sam's draft notices derails their momentum and we're left only with the one album and a follow up single.

    With help from Rose Garden guitarist John Noreen and bassist Bill Fleming, we dive into this self-titled 1968 folk-rock beauty.

    I hope you dig The Rose Garden as much as I do.

    EPYSODE 11: "Back In The HCA", by The Bowes Road Band
    Jul 31 2024

    Guests: All 4 Bowes Road Band Members - Alan Lewis, Phil Rawle, Dave Pescod, Ted Rockley and Jakarta Records label co-owner Jannis Stürtz.

    In a Rodriguez-like tale, we hear how an album recorded 50 years earlier for a school project gets discovered in the unlikliest of places by the one person who can make a story like this happen. This "band" didn't even have a name until 2023, and now hundreds of thousands of people have streamed their album and bought vinyl copies. From an original private press of 50 copies to international attention, it's an amazing story about a wonderful album their creators made and then for all intents and purposes completely forgot about for 50 years. With help from all four band members and the record label owner, we hear this incredible two-part story: the unbelievable fortune the band had to even get the album recorded in the first place and then the even more unbelievable tale of how it was discovered decades later. "It's like digging up a time capsule", the band says. As great as the story is...the music is even better!

    BONUS: With approval from the band and record label, we are also happy to include a track left off the reissue, playing it in it's entirety here, making it the world-wide exclusive premeire of the track!

    I hope you dig "Back In The HCA" as much as I do...

    EPYSODE 10: "Heritage", by Christmas
    Jul 18 2024

    GUEST: Bob Bryden.

    Welcome to Canada, eh! We’ve showcased albums from around the globe but this time out it’s an all Canadian affair as we discuss the incredible career of Bob Bryden. From his early teen days as the “accidental musician” to his time with Reign Ghost and the formation of Christmas, “I wanted to start my dream band”. We dig into each track of their fantastic 1970 album Heritage and discuss their follow up Lies to Live By and the ultimate dissolution of the band. Bob’s story doesn’t end there though as we then chat about his other bands and his solo career as well as his time producing one of Canada’s premier punk bands. He’s had a fascinating life in music with many great albums along the way.

    I hope you dig Heritage as much as I do.
