This Massacrepreat of our original episode from 2024 is dedicated to our dearly departed brother, Pierre Robert, as well as Alice Brock, the story's central figure, who passed away last year just before Thanksgiving. The roasting of the bird! The sharing of the bounty! A tradition that goes back to the earliest days of America. The Imbalanced Boys get into that, but mainly they discuss the modern day addition of Arlo Guthrie's "Alice Restaurant" to the holiday musical fare! Earle Bailey of Sirius-XM stops by to offer historical perspective to the discussion. He shares a couple surprises! Other forms of the original song/album are discussed, it's role in the movement to stop the Vietnam War, as well as a film about the original story in 1969! However you celebrate, be thankful for what you have, and share what you can! We're thankful that you're here!!! Markus & Ray Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Queen found themselves in trouble in late 1975. They had a terrible management contract they were desperate to get out of, they'd had to cancel a tour which was only booked to recoup money and they had spent over 40,000 pounds (equal to over $600,000 today) at seven different studios trying to make their 4th album, A Night At The Opera. If it wasn't a success the band might have folded up. But thanks to an unorthodox lead single that was not only bizarre but over six minutes long, the band found themselves on top of the world. The vocal harmonies that define the enduring sound of Queen are all over the album, even as the boys experimented with different instruments, recording techniques and their voices as well. You can't define the record with one genre as the epic The Prophet's Song is long and proggy while it melts into the sweet Love of My Life. Freddie attacks their ex manager in straight ahead Death on Two Legs and then quickly segues into the old-timey Lazing on a Sunday Afternoon. While John Deacon pens an ode to his wife with You're My Best Friend, Roger Taylor is proclaiming I'm in Love with My Car. In '39, Brian May takes us forward in time with astronauts in a bar sing-a-long style. But Bohemian Rhapsody with it's soulful piano to start followed by bombastic harmonies, so heavy Brian May guitar and head banging play out was the game changer. Bo Rap would eventually go number 1 and into the top ten around the world 3 times - when first released, around the time of Wayne's World (when your heroes were college roommates, and again after the movie of the same name was a worldwide success. It lifted Queen out of their financial woes and onto the world stage to a level at which they never really left. As this classic turns 50 November 22, we were happy to gain an appreciation for the band as a whole by examining an album only they could make.

EPYSODE 62: "Crazy Horse Roads" by Stained Glass. Guest: Stained Glass drummer Dennis Carrasco. Additional commentary by Uncle Herff. This week we trace the winding, electric path of Stained Glass through their powerful and often-overlooked 1970 album "Crazy Horse Roads", a burst of psychedelic energy from a band caught in the shifting tides of the West Coast scene. With exclusive commentary from original drummer Dennis Carrasco, we explore the album’s varied styles, a stark evolution from their earlier, harmony-rich garage-psych sound. We dive into the tracks and the story as Carrasco offers rare insight into the band’s creative crossroads. Recorded as the psychedelic '60s gave way to the introspective '70s, this album is an underrated gem that is deserving of more attention. I hope you dig "Crazy Horse Roads" as much as I do. - Farmer John ===CONNECT & SUPPORT=== Transport yourself into the realm of grooviness by supporting us on Patreon using this link --> patreon.com/FarmerJohnMusic Use this link to follow us on Facebook --> https://www.facebook.com/farmerjohnmusic/ Use this link to follow us on Instagram --> https://www.instagram.com/vinylrelics/ Use this link to follow us on TikTok --> https://www.tiktok.com/@vinylrelicspodcast Use this link to follow us on BlueSky --> https://bsky.app/profile/farmerjohnmusic.bsky.social And find us on X @VinylRelicsPod Email me @ ⁠farmerjohnmusic@gmail.com⁠   ===THE MUSIC=== Songs used in this Epysode, in order of appearance. Here's a link to a Spotify playlist for all the tracks featured. *denotes track is not available on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/00iIL9mL8e61OeZIsB3kPy?si=e1051904fe8241c4 MU "Ain't No Blues" LINK WRAY “Jack The Ripper” *THE TROLLS “Walkin’ Shoes” STAINED GLASS “If I Needed Someone” STAINED GLASS “We Got A Long Way To Go” STAINED GLASS “A Scene In Between” STAINED GLASS "I Sing You Sing" STAINED GLASS "Finger Painting" STAINED GLASS "Soap And Turkey" STAINED GLASS "Twiddle My Thumbs" STAINED GLASS "Fahrenheit" STAINED GLASS "Nightcap" STAINED GLASS "Horse On Me" STAINED GLASS "Two Make One" STAINED GLASS "Light Down Below" STAINED GLASS "Piggy Back Ride And The Camel" STAINED GLASS "Doomsday" *STAINED GLASS “Mad Lynn Ball” *STAINED GLASS “A Common Thief” *STAINED GLASS “Inca Treasure” COPPERHEAD “They’re Making A Monster” JEFFERSON STARSHIP “Jane” DENNIS CARRASCO “Thunder Bay” ??MYSTERY ARTIST??

In this episode of RNRA Digs Deeper, host Christian Swain sits down with veteran music journalist Selena Fragassi to excavate the history of one of modern rock's most significant acts: Pearl Jam. Delving into her beautifully crafted new book, Pearl Jam Live: 35 Years of Legendary Music and Revolutionary Shows, Salena provides a unique perspective on the band's incredible journey.The conversation explores Pearl Jam's origins, born from the ashes of Seattle's "tragedy-stricken" music scene and bands like Mother Love Bone. Fragassi discusses how the band fused the arena-rock grandeur of The Who and Led Zeppelin with the raw, DIY ethos of punk rock, creating a sound that was both monumental and deeply personal.Discover the stories behind Pearl Jam's revolutionary struggle against the corporate music machine, including their famous battle with Ticketmaster and their conscious decision to step away from music videos and mainstream promotion. Fragassi explains how this "era of no" was a survival mechanism that allowed the band to maintain its authenticity and ultimately ensured its remarkable longevity.This in-depth interview also highlights: How Eddie Vedder, an outsider from San Diego, fundamentally altered the band's DNA. [cite: 20:21] The unique, collaborative, and "beautifully incestuous" nature of the Seattle scene that fostered their growth. [cite: 13:12] The evolution of the Pearl Jam live experience, from the raw, chaotic energy of their first-ever show in 1990 to the celebrated institution it is today. [cite: 22:48-23:4, 42:44] The creation of the Ten Club and how Pearl Jam redefined the artist-fan dynamic, making them a true "band for the people." [cite: 33:21] Learn more about your ad choices.

This week, it's just "boys talking" (or lads conversing, if you will), as we welcome the sublime singer-songwriter Will Dailey as our Third Lad. Will has spent the past two decades perfecting a style that is not beholden to any one particular genre or set of influences, incorporating rock, folk, psych, funk, blues, and melodic pop into a catalogue where the songs always speak for themselves. Over the years, he's performed extensively with Eddie Vedder, played alongside Peter Buck, opened for the Wallflowers, performed multiple times at Farm Aid, and has had many songs placed in TV shows from 90210 to CSI and movies like the animated hit Barnyard. Now, Will has released his killer seventh record, and arguably his best yet, Boys Talking. But you won't find this gem on Spotify or Apple Music...this is not an album to simply stream and forget. Savor it on vinyl, CD, cassette, or digital through ⁠https://willdailey.bandcamp.com⁠. We ask Will about the new record, from the single "Send Some Energy" to the infectious romp should-be-smash "Alright Already." You won't hear the latter on streaming services...but you will hear it here on O3L! Of course, we also delve into our focus topic this week, our Top 5 Singer-Songwriter Albums of the '80s. While "singer-songwriter" may instantly conjure up visions of troubadours with acoustic guitars like James Taylor, Jackson Browne, or Cat Stevens, we redefine the term for the high-tech '80s.

Hey there, groove rebels, light one up and crank it loud. In this episode of Prisoners of Rock and Roll, we’re \blazing through songs about weed. From Willie Nelson’s outlaw anthems to Snoop Dogg’s chronic classics, the Grateful Dead’s tie-dye jams, and Cypress Hill’s hazy hits, pot’s been music’s smoky sidekick for decades. But we’re not just name-dropping—we’re digging deep into tracks that tell America’s weed story as it’s gone from counter culture to more mainstream – and legal – form of recreation. Back in the Harlem Renaissance, jazz cats were puffing and playing, turning reefer into rhythm. Then it was counterculture fuel—think ‘60s stoners flipping the bird to the law. Now? It’s legal in half the states, and weed’s gone mainstream, from dispensaries to playlists. So grab your stash, feel the vibe, and join us as we roll through the tunes that tracked America’s high times. Let’s spark it!"

When The Wolf saw that Jason Bonham was bringing his Led Zeppelin Evening to town he was interested but a little skeptical. Though John Bonham's oldest child is now a grandfather himself with four decades of experience, I didn't know what kind of show it would be. Turns out not only has Jason assembled an incredible band that can truly do justice to Led Zeppelin classics but Jason gives us a glimpse into his brief time with his dad. As MC between songs, Bonham helps keep the crowd loose with his laid back persona and sly humor which keeps the fans engaged. Sharing stories about John and also fanboying with Jimmy Page and Robert Plant (they had to limit him to 2 Zeppelin questions a day during the Celebration Day rehearsals) give the audience what they want - direct connection to the men who made this incredible music. And the band are fantastic. James Dylan (Vocals, acoustic) can hit some of those classic Plant notes while Alex Howland provides part of the John Paul Jones roll on keys and acoustic. The other half is Dorian Heartsong on bass/mandolin - all of them are brilliant players. But Jimmy Sakurai has taken on the essence of Jimmy Page with his hair, clothing, movements and equipment. He not only looks the part but he's got the tracks down and it makes for a fun night of Led Zeppelin - a night where they celebrate Physical Graffiti at 50 by playing the whole thing! After Custard Pie and The Rover, they played the songs out of order with Jason dipping in and out to share his own stories of learning to love Led Zeppelin and other music of his generation (Stewart Copeland is way better than you Dad!). During the acoustic set they all sit on the drum riser and Jason tells us why they used to give Bonzo a tambourine for the acoustic Zep sets. From there they build to a crescendo using all the power the 1975 double album had to offer, ending with one John Bonham co-wrote by telling Jimmy dunna-dunna dun, click, dunna-dunna dun, click, dunna-dunna dun, click, dunna-dunna dun. Don't be skeptical - know that this a fun night for Zeppelin fans with great stories to go along with epic music you can't get live anywhere else these days. If you can see them, GO!!
