VINYL RELICS/Kongos (1971): The Tape-Loop Frontier

EPYSODE 59: "Kongos" by John Kongos. Guest: John Kongos. Additional commentary by Uncle Herff. This week we drop the needle on "Kongos", the 1972 cult-favourite album that fused glam rock, African rhythms, early sampling, and psychedelic textures long before such mashups became the norm. With exclusive commentary from John Kongos, we explore the bold studio experimentation behind tracks like “He’s Gonna Step on You Again”, a UK Top 5 hit that famously used tape loops and tribal drums, influencing artists from Happy Mondays to U2. Kongos shares firsthand stories about working with producer Gus Dudgeon (Elton John), the intense sessions at Trident Studios, and how the album’s futuristic sound puzzled critics but built a cult following that still grows today. This is a deep-dive into one of the most forward-thinking albums of the era...one that sounds as vital now as it did over 50 years ago. I hope you dig "Kongos" 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/03Hc0ElOSr7zerfpLArswj?si=0c7745a5dafb4a61 WILLIE NILE "Vagabond Moon" TOMMY STEELE “Rock With The Caveman” CHET ATKINS “Mr. Sandman” ARTISTS AGAINST APARTHEID “Sun City” THE G-MEN “Campbell’s Rock” *JOHNNY KONGOS & THE G-MEN “Cruel Sea” JOHNNY KONGOS & THE G-MEN “It’s All Over Now” JOHNNY KONGOS “Little Boy Cryin’” JOHN T.

Songfacts Podcast | Jim Keller of Tommy Tutone

Jim Keller has lived more than one musical life. He first made his mark as a guitarist and co-writer in Tommy Tutone — yes, the band behind “867-5309/Jenny.” But that was just the beginning. After years on the road, Jim shifted gears and built a remarkable career behind the scenes, managing artists like Philip Glass and helping shape the business side of some of modern music’s most distinctive voices. Now, he’s returned to his own songwriting roots with End of the World — an album that blends grit, humor, and heart in equal measure. In this episode, Jim talks about what it’s like to reinvent yourself in the music world, how his time with Glass changed the way he thinks about creativity, and the stories behind his new record. Listen in for a conversation that spans decades — from the neon glow of early ‘80s pop to the quiet persistence of an artist still chasing great songs. Enjoying the show?

Only Three Lads: Knox Chandler (Psychedelic Furs, Siouxsie) - Top 5 Experimental Albums

In music, experimentalism is more than just "that one time in college." This week, we cover the albums that dared to be different, were fearless in their pursuit of breaking new ground, and subverted traditional expectations of what music should sound like. The spirit of experimental music is alive and well on The Sound, the debut solo album by guitarist, cellist, composer producer, arranger, painter, and educator Knox Chandler. This project is a musical memoir depicting the shift in his surroundings from the urbanism of New York, London, and Berlin to the serene rural setting of the Connecticut shoreline. Through 10 diaristic and transportative soundscapes, The Sound incorporates Knox's "Soundribbon" style of meditative, powerfully cinematic guitar, accompanied by upright bass and percussion, and is paired with a book of paintings, sketches, and writings. You no doubt have heard Knox Chandler's work throughout a career that has spanned four decades, as a member of The Psychedelic Furs, Siouxsie & The Banshees, Cyndi Lauper's band, and The Golden Palominos. He's also played, composed, produced, and arranged on dozens of records including REM's Automatic For The People, Depeche Mode's Exciter, David Gahan's Paper Monsters, Paula Cole's Harbinger, and many more.

Play That Rock n' Roll: Interview w/ STU COOK (of CREEDENCE CLEARWATER REVIVAL)

This is Play That Rock n' Roll's interview with STU COOK, legendary bassist of Creedence Clearwater Revival! Stu visited the show to promote an album he recorded (called "JACKDAWG") along with John McFee and Keith Knudson from The Doobie Brothers. In this conversation, we talk about how JACKDAWG got started, their songwriting process, why the album took so long to get a proper release, and how they came up with the name. Stu also tells the stories behind a few of the tracks, and shares his memories of drummer Keith Knudson. We also discuss two major aspects of Stu’s career. The first being his production work on Roky Erickson’s 1980 album “The Evil One”. And then we close the interview with Stu reflecting on his time playing in Creedence Clearwater Revisited, which is how I saw him in concert.
