I'm not just one, but two iconic British 17 00:01:07,959 --> 00:01:10,440 Speaker 1: musicians by You're never going to believe this, a bunch 18 00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:15,200 Speaker 1: of other gangster British musicians. Plus we get into your emails, comments, dms, 19 00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:17,760 Speaker 1: and as always, a whole lot of rosie. This is 20 00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:21,680 Speaker 1: the podcast for the musically obsessed, the outsiders, the independent 21 00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:24,039 Speaker 1: thinkers who know that the best history is the history 22 00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:27,080 Speaker 1: that gets buried. Disgraceland is where I tell the stories 23 00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:29,639 Speaker 1: they didn't want told, the kind you'll end up telling 24 00:01:29,720 --> 00:01:43,240 Speaker 1: someone else. All right, discos, let's get into it. You 25 00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:49,320 Speaker 1: know something we've never really discussed here in Disgraceland is britpop. Now. 26 00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:52,720 Speaker 1: I know, the Libertines, the subject of this week's full episode, 27 00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:57,120 Speaker 1: isn't technically britpop. They're really just an indie rock band 28 00:01:57,280 --> 00:02:01,640 Speaker 1: with UK influence from the UK of from London, and 29 00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:04,880 Speaker 1: they're part of a generation of British indie bands that 30 00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:09,520 Speaker 1: became known after Britpop. Britpop to me is decidedly a 31 00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:15,240 Speaker 1: nineties thing. Oasis, Blur, Pulp, the nineties are the era 32 00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:19,520 Speaker 1: of British bands. Okay, that to me is britpop. The Libertines, 33 00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:23,240 Speaker 1: Block Party, the Cribs. That's a different generation British sure, 34 00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:27,560 Speaker 1: but not necessarily britpop. So we covered Oasis here in 35 00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:32,839 Speaker 1: disgraysand obviously britpop, and we have Blur and Elastica on 36 00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:35,600 Speaker 1: our list for this year for episodes that we're going 37 00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:39,840 Speaker 1: to produce. But we've barely spoken about the groups from 38 00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:44,760 Speaker 1: that nineties britpop era that inspired bands like the Libertines 39 00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:49,280 Speaker 1: and the Cribs and Block Party, you know again, britpop 40 00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:54,160 Speaker 1: band Supergrass, Swede, Radiohead, And we've barely spoken about the 41 00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:58,240 Speaker 1: group of British bands that came to inspire these britpop bands. 42 00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:02,520 Speaker 1: I'm talking about the post punk era of British groups 43 00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:05,399 Speaker 1: that inspired Oasis and Blur and Pulp and all that. 44 00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:09,840 Speaker 1: I'm talking about the Cure Smiths susing the Banshees, and 45 00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:12,919 Speaker 1: we've spent a ton of time talking about the first 46 00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:17,720 Speaker 1: generation of British punk sex pistols Clash Generation X, which 47 00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:20,119 Speaker 1: just did an episode on The Pretender's Chrissy Hind which 48 00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:22,840 Speaker 1: is set largely in that world in London in the 49 00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:27,080 Speaker 1: late seventies. So here's what I want to do, thanks 50 00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:29,880 Speaker 1: to the Libertines, thanks to Pete Daugherty, I want to 51 00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:34,639 Speaker 1: talk about the britpop movement here with the Libertines obviously 52 00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:36,760 Speaker 1: as a jumping off point, and I want to use 53 00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:40,280 Speaker 1: it as an entry point, ideally into some more disgrace 54 00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:45,960 Speaker 1: sand episodes we can cover going forward from this era. Now, 55 00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:48,480 Speaker 1: I can't recall if in the Oasis episode, if I 56 00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:52,240 Speaker 1: mentioned whether I'm Oasis or a team Oasis or team Blur. 57 00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:53,880 Speaker 1: Not that you have to be either, but you know 58 00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:55,640 Speaker 1: you kind of like one more than the other, you 59 00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:57,920 Speaker 1: don't like them both the same, or you're not really 60 00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:01,200 Speaker 1: paying attention. I can't remember if I got into that 61 00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:05,320 Speaker 1: in those Oasis episodes, but I am an Oasis guy, 62 00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:09,320 Speaker 1: which is a very unpopular opinion in my house. My 63 00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:13,080 Speaker 1: wife and my oldest son are decidedly Blur first, and 64 00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:15,440 Speaker 1: my youngest son is basically just agreeing with them to 65 00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:19,520 Speaker 1: piss me off. So I'm in the minority, but I'm 66 00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:23,720 Speaker 1: gonna win him over. Let's look, though, not just at 67 00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:29,160 Speaker 1: Oasis and Blur, but at that whole nineties generation of 68 00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:36,200 Speaker 1: peak British pop music, the era that directly influenced Pete 69 00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:40,320 Speaker 1: Doherty in the Libertines, and let's steep ourselves a little 70 00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:44,200 Speaker 1: bit more in London music history, more recent of course, 71 00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:48,080 Speaker 1: and hopefully some lore. All Right, So I went dig 72 00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:49,880 Speaker 1: in this morning as I was thinking about what I 73 00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:52,160 Speaker 1: was going to say to you guys today, and surprisingly 74 00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:55,559 Speaker 1: Rolling Stone magazine does not have a list of top 75 00:04:55,880 --> 00:04:59,920 Speaker 1: pop groups or albums. But side note rolling Stone, if 76 00:04:59,960 --> 00:05:02,040 Speaker 1: you want one, you know you can call me up. 77 00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:06,880 Speaker 1: You know, I was kind of surprised by that Rolling 78 00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:08,240 Speaker 1: Stones all about the list. I don't know why they 79 00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:10,520 Speaker 1: don't have one. Pitchfork, on the other hand, has a 80 00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:14,280 Speaker 1: fifty best Britpop album's list, and right out of the gate, 81 00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:16,760 Speaker 1: I'm angry before even looking at the list, because I 82 00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:20,039 Speaker 1: know the Pitchfork isn't going to have Oasis is definitely 83 00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:22,960 Speaker 1: maybe at number one, which they absolutely should because really, 84 00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:28,120 Speaker 1: to me, that nineteen ninety four album is Britpop's big Bang. Instead, 85 00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:31,280 Speaker 1: Pitchfork is going to have something obscure like Richard Holly's 86 00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:33,920 Speaker 1: cousin's third grade teacher's best friend's demo that he cut 87 00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:36,120 Speaker 1: in the basement of the local pub as their number 88 00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:41,120 Speaker 1: one album of top fifty Britpop albums. That imaginary album 89 00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:44,200 Speaker 1: is called Chandler and the Ghosts by the imaginary band 90 00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:48,080 Speaker 1: causely but I digress, and despite my anger, or perhaps 91 00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:51,479 Speaker 1: because of it, I'm gonna trudge on here, like Liam Gallagher, 92 00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:54,520 Speaker 1: into a violent melee of warring soccer hooligans and cops, 93 00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:57,799 Speaker 1: which is to say, I'm going to dive headfirst into 94 00:05:57,839 --> 00:06:01,320 Speaker 1: this list. Okay, so this is just kind of recent. 95 00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:03,839 Speaker 1: It's from twenty seventeen and right out of the gate. 96 00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:08,400 Speaker 1: Despite my reservations, I have hope here, okay, because the list, 97 00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:10,960 Speaker 1: as I look at it, it starts with a Jarvis 98 00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:14,560 Speaker 1: Cocker quote and it goes on to interview Danny Boyle. Okay, 99 00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:19,560 Speaker 1: trainspotting Danny Boyle. Pitchfork defines Britpop similarly to the way 100 00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:21,880 Speaker 1: I do, but they put more meat on the bone. 101 00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:25,480 Speaker 1: They say that britpop is quote the musical scene active 102 00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:28,560 Speaker 1: in the United Kingdom in the mid nineties. Particularly, we 103 00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:31,919 Speaker 1: are looking at the guitar based musicians who shared focus 104 00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:36,400 Speaker 1: on anthemic melodies, social observations of British culture, and daily 105 00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:40,760 Speaker 1: life in their country's musical heritage. That sounds about right 106 00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:44,520 Speaker 1: to me. That nails the definition of britpop. So let's 107 00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:47,240 Speaker 1: dive in. I'm not doing all fifty here, by the way, 108 00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:50,440 Speaker 1: I'm just doing the top ten, number ten, the verve 109 00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:55,920 Speaker 1: urban hymns. This feels both too low and too high 110 00:06:56,040 --> 00:06:59,760 Speaker 1: at the same time, So maybe this album is perfect 111 00:06:59,760 --> 00:07:02,240 Speaker 1: at number ten. I don't know, I don't know. I'm 112 00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:06,719 Speaker 1: gonna reserve judgment here number nine now see I knew it, 113 00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:13,600 Speaker 1: I knew it. Oasis Definitely Maybe at number nine, this 114 00:07:13,680 --> 00:07:16,240 Speaker 1: is an affront to uh, I don't know, the monarchy, No, 115 00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:19,200 Speaker 1: to the working class. That's what it's in front two. 116 00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:23,920 Speaker 1: This is way, way, way too low. Okay, this is 117 00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:28,400 Speaker 1: what Pitchfork has to say about Definitely Maybe hold on, i' 118 00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:31,280 Speaker 1: let men pull it up for you. It's interesting. At 119 00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:35,600 Speaker 1: number nine. Definitely maybe Oasis's full length album, their debut 120 00:07:35,640 --> 00:07:38,400 Speaker 1: full length from nineteen ninety four. Pitchfork has this to 121 00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:42,120 Speaker 1: say in the context of this list of top fifty 122 00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:45,520 Speaker 1: britpop albums. Okay, here we go Tonight, I'm a rock 123 00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:48,400 Speaker 1: and roll Star, Liam Gallagher proclaims at the start of 124 00:07:48,440 --> 00:07:53,000 Speaker 1: Oasis's debut. Taken out of context, it's easy to mistake 125 00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:58,280 Speaker 1: this course as another example of braggadoccio from britpop's brashest band, 126 00:07:58,360 --> 00:08:02,960 Speaker 1: particularly given the anti stadium hero ethos of the era. 127 00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:05,720 Speaker 1: But the verses of rock and Roll Star tell a 128 00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:10,280 Speaker 1: different story, reflecting Oasis's modest circumstances when they made Definitely 129 00:08:10,280 --> 00:08:14,320 Speaker 1: Maybe before Oasis were arrogant, they were aspirational. I disagree 130 00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:16,960 Speaker 1: with that. They were always arrogant, goes on to say 131 00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:19,960 Speaker 1: throughout the album. Noel Gallagher writes about a dead end 132 00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:23,400 Speaker 1: working class life from which there is no escape save 133 00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:27,360 Speaker 1: for fantasies of fame and fortune. In that same song, 134 00:08:27,640 --> 00:08:30,160 Speaker 1: in a cutting wine pitched at the midpoint of John 135 00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:33,199 Speaker 1: Lennon and Johnny Rotten, Liam Gallagher sings, definitely maybe's truest 136 00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:36,640 Speaker 1: line in my mind, my dreams are real. It was 137 00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:40,040 Speaker 1: up to Oasis to make them real. There's more to 138 00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:41,680 Speaker 1: it than that, but that's the part I wanted to 139 00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:46,439 Speaker 1: read to you, because I don't really disagree with anything there, 140 00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:51,679 Speaker 1: except for the claim that this was before Oasis were arrogant, 141 00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:53,800 Speaker 1: you know, insinuating that there was a time when they 142 00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:57,400 Speaker 1: weren't arrogant, which just isn't true. They always had that 143 00:08:57,480 --> 00:09:02,160 Speaker 1: cockiness and that was, honestly, that was the appeal to 144 00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:07,360 Speaker 1: me of Oasis back in the nineties. It was super 145 00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:14,600 Speaker 1: refreshing to finally after Kurt Cobain, after just this sort 146 00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:18,760 Speaker 1: of the grunge era of the nineties in America, the 147 00:09:18,840 --> 00:09:22,240 Speaker 1: time in which we were all supposed to do, and 148 00:09:22,280 --> 00:09:25,079 Speaker 1: I felt this way authentically, you know, we were all 149 00:09:25,160 --> 00:09:30,400 Speaker 1: sort of like just rejecting the idea of the rock 150 00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:36,280 Speaker 1: star for something more authentic and more artistic. It was 151 00:09:36,360 --> 00:09:38,439 Speaker 1: even though we felt that way, it was just honest 152 00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:43,000 Speaker 1: to get the opposite inn Oasis of these guys who 153 00:09:43,080 --> 00:09:47,640 Speaker 1: were clearly larger than life, absolute rock stars and just 154 00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:50,440 Speaker 1: made no bones about it. Came out of the gates 155 00:09:50,520 --> 00:09:55,240 Speaker 1: swinging exactly authentically who they were, not putting anything on. 156 00:09:56,160 --> 00:10:01,760 Speaker 1: You could just feel it. They were fucking gangsters, rock stars. 157 00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:05,440 Speaker 1: Absolutely didn't give a shit about societal norms. It was 158 00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:08,880 Speaker 1: expressed in their music. And yes, this was not the 159 00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:12,199 Speaker 1: brand of your sort of you know, like high falutant, 160 00:10:12,520 --> 00:10:16,880 Speaker 1: high society late sixties swing in London, Rolling Stones, rock Star. 161 00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:23,480 Speaker 1: This was a different breed entirely. This was totally working class, thugish. 162 00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:27,440 Speaker 1: It was great. It was great to know that these 163 00:10:27,440 --> 00:10:31,040 Speaker 1: guys were going for it and we were rooting for them. 164 00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:33,839 Speaker 1: In the hardcore scene, we were at least, I mean, 165 00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:35,760 Speaker 1: it was kind of just this thing was I don't 166 00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:37,440 Speaker 1: know what it was. I don't know why hardcore kids 167 00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:40,320 Speaker 1: liked Oasis so much, because I think them being British 168 00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:46,600 Speaker 1: gave us the freedom to root for further rockstardom because 169 00:10:46,640 --> 00:10:48,480 Speaker 1: there was some separation there. We didn't do that with 170 00:10:48,520 --> 00:10:52,680 Speaker 1: American bands, not in nineteen ninety four, certainly not with 171 00:10:52,800 --> 00:10:56,920 Speaker 1: new American bands in nineteen ninety four. Anyways, this record 172 00:10:56,960 --> 00:11:01,200 Speaker 1: to me, like I said, it's the big band of ritpop. 173 00:11:01,320 --> 00:11:03,560 Speaker 1: And I know there's there are plenty of arguments to 174 00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:06,320 Speaker 1: make against this record for other records. That's what makes 175 00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:09,320 Speaker 1: this topic so interesting. But for me, this is the one. 176 00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:13,080 Speaker 1: This is the one. It's a ringing bell, It's Bunker 177 00:11:13,160 --> 00:11:15,640 Speaker 1: Hill or Lexington or whatever it is. This is the thing. 178 00:11:15,880 --> 00:11:19,319 Speaker 1: This is when it starts for me. So number nine, 179 00:11:19,440 --> 00:11:23,000 Speaker 1: I just nine, barely in the top ten. I just 180 00:11:23,040 --> 00:11:26,320 Speaker 1: can't go there. I can't come on. But it's Pitchfork, 181 00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:30,400 Speaker 1: so what do you expect? Number eight is Blur's self 182 00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:33,560 Speaker 1: titled album Blur from nineteen ninety seven, which I don't know. 183 00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:38,920 Speaker 1: This also feels very low. This was Blur's breakthrough in 184 00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:42,920 Speaker 1: America sort of. Blur never really broke through in America 185 00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:49,320 Speaker 1: like Oasis did, despite despite the massive single from this album, 186 00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:53,600 Speaker 1: song number two, which still has cultural relevance. This record 187 00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:58,000 Speaker 1: personally is I love it. It's incredible. One of my 188 00:11:58,120 --> 00:12:01,520 Speaker 1: favorite albums from this era for sure. It's definitely my 189 00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:03,760 Speaker 1: favorite Blur album. I like it more than park Life, 190 00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:07,600 Speaker 1: which is saying something is Park life is fantastic. And again, 191 00:12:07,640 --> 00:12:09,640 Speaker 1: this is the band that broke the band broke Blur 192 00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:11,719 Speaker 1: in America, and America is still listening to it. Like 193 00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:13,480 Speaker 1: I said, pretty much every day, turn on most any 194 00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:15,959 Speaker 1: sporting event broadcast and wait a couple of minutes and 195 00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:18,480 Speaker 1: you're gonna hear the crowd singing song number two at 196 00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:21,920 Speaker 1: some point A woo who as they say so. Number 197 00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:26,240 Speaker 1: eight here feels low for Blur's self titled album, Number seven, 198 00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:29,800 Speaker 1: paulp This is hardcore. And you know by now, guys 199 00:12:29,800 --> 00:12:31,920 Speaker 1: that I'm not a huge Pulp fan. But I don't 200 00:12:31,960 --> 00:12:34,960 Speaker 1: dislike Pulp like your favorite New Jersey crime boss. I 201 00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:38,480 Speaker 1: like some Pulp and this record ain't it not for 202 00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:41,440 Speaker 1: me anyways, But that's mainly out of ignorance in preference. 203 00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:43,280 Speaker 1: I don't know this album that well. I always love 204 00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:45,960 Speaker 1: the album cover, but I was never compelled to really 205 00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:48,800 Speaker 1: dig into this and explore it. I suppose now is 206 00:12:48,840 --> 00:12:52,000 Speaker 1: the time to change. That I just learned today, however, 207 00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:56,800 Speaker 1: in going through this britpop history that Pulp had been 208 00:12:56,840 --> 00:13:01,959 Speaker 1: a band for seventeen years before breaking out, and I 209 00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:04,120 Speaker 1: had to look at this twice before breaking out in 210 00:13:04,440 --> 00:13:06,880 Speaker 1: the rippop era of the nineteen nineties. Pulp formed in 211 00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:14,520 Speaker 1: nineteen seventy eight. What that's incredible, that's shocking. I think 212 00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:16,920 Speaker 1: Picasso was still alive in nineteen seventy eight. 213 00:13:18,040 --> 00:13:18,480 Speaker 2: He wasn't. 214 00:13:18,520 --> 00:13:20,120 Speaker 1: I think he died a couple of years earlier. But 215 00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:26,960 Speaker 1: you get my point. Wild all right. Number six Elastica's 216 00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:32,040 Speaker 1: self titled album. Now, this placement seems right. Perhaps it 217 00:13:32,080 --> 00:13:34,440 Speaker 1: could be a little higher. Perhaps this album suffers in 218 00:13:34,480 --> 00:13:37,360 Speaker 1: its positioning because it's a female front and group and 219 00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:40,720 Speaker 1: most of the folks putting this list together are krusty 220 00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:44,040 Speaker 1: rock dude journalists. This is a great record with a 221 00:13:44,040 --> 00:13:48,720 Speaker 1: great breakout single connection and songs on it that Nod 222 00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:53,160 Speaker 1: enthusiastically to the past. Maybe too enthusiastically got him into 223 00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:56,439 Speaker 1: some trouble, and you know, this is the type of 224 00:13:56,480 --> 00:13:59,320 Speaker 1: album that also storms into the future fearlessly. In the 225 00:13:59,360 --> 00:14:03,040 Speaker 1: result of core is a sound that is undeniably or 226 00:14:03,240 --> 00:14:06,360 Speaker 1: was undeniably present at the time. I loved this record 227 00:14:07,240 --> 00:14:11,360 Speaker 1: and I can't wait to cover Justine Frishman in either 228 00:14:11,400 --> 00:14:15,040 Speaker 1: an Elastica episode of Disgraceland or in a joint Damon 229 00:14:15,120 --> 00:14:17,360 Speaker 1: Alburn Disgraceland episod. We're going to talk about that later, 230 00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:20,160 Speaker 1: Seth and I in the exclusive section of this here 231 00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:25,960 Speaker 1: Bonus episode. Number five Swayed dog Man Star. Now, I 232 00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:28,960 Speaker 1: was never a big Swede fan. Swayed for me was 233 00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:32,720 Speaker 1: where brit pop just kind of went a little too 234 00:14:32,800 --> 00:14:36,640 Speaker 1: Brit poppy. But people love this record, So what do 235 00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:39,320 Speaker 1: I know? At number four, here we go, Now we're 236 00:14:39,320 --> 00:14:44,680 Speaker 1: getting down to it. Oasis is What's the Story? Morning Glory? 237 00:14:44,800 --> 00:14:49,320 Speaker 1: I honestly don't know how to rank this album. Oasis, 238 00:14:49,360 --> 00:14:53,920 Speaker 1: who I clearly love only really has two great albums, 239 00:14:54,120 --> 00:14:56,640 Speaker 1: this and definitely maybe and definitely maybe is my favorite 240 00:14:56,640 --> 00:14:59,240 Speaker 1: among the two. But what's the story? Morning Glory is 241 00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:05,880 Speaker 1: a mom stir album. It's skyrocketed the band to international fame. 242 00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:07,840 Speaker 1: It made Oasis the biggest band to come out of 243 00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:10,840 Speaker 1: Britain at the time. So I kind of don't know 244 00:15:10,960 --> 00:15:14,320 Speaker 1: how it's just not number one on this list. But 245 00:15:14,760 --> 00:15:17,760 Speaker 1: then again, I do know because it's not even my 246 00:15:17,880 --> 00:15:20,800 Speaker 1: favorite Oasis album either way, for just feels too low. 247 00:15:22,080 --> 00:15:28,280 Speaker 1: Number three Radioheads The Bends, mixed by my mentor and 248 00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:33,880 Speaker 1: American Paul Q. COLDERI and Paul's production partner at the time, 249 00:15:33,960 --> 00:15:39,040 Speaker 1: Sean Slaid. This feels right. Number three. Radiohead busted into 250 00:15:39,080 --> 00:15:41,560 Speaker 1: the mainstream during the grunge era with Pablo Honey and 251 00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:43,960 Speaker 1: their single Creep, which I believe is nineteen ninety two. 252 00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:48,000 Speaker 1: But this follow up in the middle of the britpop 253 00:15:48,040 --> 00:15:53,120 Speaker 1: era nineteen ninety five is incredible. The only thing, though, 254 00:15:53,120 --> 00:15:55,440 Speaker 1: I don't know how. I don't know if people will 255 00:15:55,440 --> 00:15:59,680 Speaker 1: be able to relate to this, this album like it's 256 00:15:59,680 --> 00:16:05,720 Speaker 1: fall Up, okay, computer, they don't really feel britpoppy. Radiohead 257 00:16:05,720 --> 00:16:07,960 Speaker 1: feels like its own thing. This record feels like its 258 00:16:07,960 --> 00:16:11,800 Speaker 1: own thing, you know. It feels like Radiohead and Radiohead alone, 259 00:16:12,720 --> 00:16:16,280 Speaker 1: like the beginnings of a new genre almost, But that's 260 00:16:16,560 --> 00:16:18,440 Speaker 1: just me. I don't know what that says about its 261 00:16:18,440 --> 00:16:21,360 Speaker 1: placement on the list here at number three. Perhaps it 262 00:16:21,400 --> 00:16:24,280 Speaker 1: should be even higher, Perhaps it should have its own list. 263 00:16:24,400 --> 00:16:27,320 Speaker 1: I don't know. Number two, okay, Before I get to 264 00:16:27,400 --> 00:16:30,960 Speaker 1: number two. There are only two more albums that can 265 00:16:31,080 --> 00:16:34,720 Speaker 1: possibly be at number two and number one on this list, right, 266 00:16:36,040 --> 00:16:39,680 Speaker 1: and I should Coco Buy Supergrass and Grand Prix by 267 00:16:39,720 --> 00:16:44,080 Speaker 1: Teenage Fan Club? Are those two albums? Right? They have 268 00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:48,240 Speaker 1: to be They haven't been mentioned yet, but no they're not, 269 00:16:50,680 --> 00:16:53,680 Speaker 1: and my dog's pissed about it. You hear that Dusty 270 00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:58,320 Speaker 1: is upset. Dusty is upset. She's a huge supergrass fan. 271 00:16:58,560 --> 00:17:03,240 Speaker 1: Why wouldn't she be damn it. Both these incredible britpop 272 00:17:03,280 --> 00:17:05,840 Speaker 1: albums were left out of the top ten by the 273 00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:11,879 Speaker 1: supposed big brains at Pitchfork. Unbelievable. Number two is park 274 00:17:11,920 --> 00:17:15,520 Speaker 1: Life by blur which is the appropriate ranking? I think? 275 00:17:16,200 --> 00:17:18,000 Speaker 1: I don't know. I know, I'm contradicting myself because I 276 00:17:18,040 --> 00:17:19,920 Speaker 1: already said that I like their self titled album better 277 00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:24,600 Speaker 1: than park Life, which you know, Blurheads I'm sure would hate. 278 00:17:25,480 --> 00:17:28,199 Speaker 1: But this record just I feel like it meant more 279 00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:32,600 Speaker 1: to the britpop movement and it should be behind Oasis, 280 00:17:32,760 --> 00:17:37,600 Speaker 1: as we've already discussed. Incredible as park Life is, but 281 00:17:38,160 --> 00:17:41,240 Speaker 1: the two great Oasis records, they've already been talked about 282 00:17:41,280 --> 00:17:43,400 Speaker 1: here on this list. You know, actually, if I start 283 00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:45,000 Speaker 1: to think about it for five seconds longer, I can 284 00:17:45,040 --> 00:17:46,880 Speaker 1: probably make the case that park Life should be number 285 00:17:46,880 --> 00:17:49,960 Speaker 1: one on this list. If I'm being honest, It's as 286 00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:54,760 Speaker 1: genre defining as either of the great Oasis albums. I'm 287 00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:59,200 Speaker 1: just letting my Oasis bias sway me that or my wife. 288 00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:02,199 Speaker 1: But again, park Life here at number two, so what 289 00:18:02,320 --> 00:18:05,600 Speaker 1: is number one? Number one? Number one? Britpop heads have 290 00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:10,159 Speaker 1: already figured this out. Number one on this list. I 291 00:18:10,160 --> 00:18:14,040 Speaker 1: don't know. This kind of feels like, look at me, journalism, 292 00:18:14,240 --> 00:18:18,280 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, like some hipper than you, 293 00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:21,320 Speaker 1: because I'm naming this record type of bullshit, which is 294 00:18:21,480 --> 00:18:24,720 Speaker 1: just obviously so Pitchfork. Number one on Pitchfork's list of 295 00:18:24,800 --> 00:18:31,440 Speaker 1: top fifty Britpop albums is Pulp's Different Class, which, Deborah, 296 00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:34,520 Speaker 1: come on, we love this album, but placing it above 297 00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:38,439 Speaker 1: Blur or Oasis just feels like, like I said Pitchfork, 298 00:18:38,640 --> 00:18:40,560 Speaker 1: like trying. They're trying just a little too hard, trying 299 00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:43,160 Speaker 1: to appeal to the so called cool kids hanging out 300 00:18:43,160 --> 00:18:45,919 Speaker 1: at MisShapes in the mid odds in New York, or 301 00:18:46,320 --> 00:18:49,440 Speaker 1: Boston's The Pill during that same era, or Great Scott. 302 00:18:49,480 --> 00:18:52,600 Speaker 1: I cannot get with Pulp's Different Class at number one. 303 00:18:52,600 --> 00:18:55,240 Speaker 1: Maybe that says something about me. Maybe it says that 304 00:18:55,320 --> 00:18:57,720 Speaker 1: I'm not as big of a britpop fan. You know, 305 00:18:57,760 --> 00:18:59,520 Speaker 1: I'm not. I'm not a huge britpop fan. For me, 306 00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:03,680 Speaker 1: totally on us, I like some britpop I get to stop. 307 00:19:04,119 --> 00:19:06,959 Speaker 1: It's true though, and there is kind of a gaping 308 00:19:07,040 --> 00:19:10,480 Speaker 1: hole in my knowledge of the history, which is why 309 00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:16,760 Speaker 1: I'm excited to get into some britpop focused episodes going 310 00:19:16,800 --> 00:19:19,359 Speaker 1: forward here with Disgray sand I just can't get with 311 00:19:19,400 --> 00:19:22,679 Speaker 1: the fact that Supergrass and Teenage Fan Club with I 312 00:19:22,720 --> 00:19:26,120 Speaker 1: Should Cocoa and Grand Prix are not cracking the top 313 00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:30,200 Speaker 1: ten list here. All right, These are capital G great 314 00:19:30,400 --> 00:19:33,480 Speaker 1: records from start to finish, and not having in the 315 00:19:33,520 --> 00:19:36,320 Speaker 1: top ten just doesn't make any sense to me. Pitchfork 316 00:19:36,359 --> 00:19:41,160 Speaker 1: does have I Should Coco at number twelve and Grand 317 00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:45,760 Speaker 1: Prix way down at number thirty six. I'm sure Bandwagon 318 00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:48,119 Speaker 1: ESK is higher than Grand Prix. I didn't look. But 319 00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:51,040 Speaker 1: also not having Primal Scream on this list kind of 320 00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:55,600 Speaker 1: feels intentionally hurtful. Stone Roses I get. I get why 321 00:19:55,600 --> 00:19:58,280 Speaker 1: they're not in the top ten or even on the 322 00:19:58,320 --> 00:20:01,720 Speaker 1: list at all. They sort of I've preceded the whole 323 00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:05,639 Speaker 1: britpop thing, and to an extent, so did Primal Screen, 324 00:20:05,760 --> 00:20:09,400 Speaker 1: but not really some not too butt hurt about these 325 00:20:09,440 --> 00:20:13,439 Speaker 1: two omissions anyway. If you are a Libertines fan or 326 00:20:13,480 --> 00:20:15,240 Speaker 1: a fan of any of the early to mid two 327 00:20:15,240 --> 00:20:18,679 Speaker 1: thousands British indie rock, Maximal Park, Razorlight, these bands that 328 00:20:18,720 --> 00:20:20,600 Speaker 1: we're discussing right here. From this list, they're going to 329 00:20:20,680 --> 00:20:23,760 Speaker 1: give you some idea of what Pete Tardi and Carl 330 00:20:23,800 --> 00:20:27,920 Speaker 1: Barra and others from the two thousands indie sleis era 331 00:20:28,200 --> 00:20:32,480 Speaker 1: were weaned on. So there you go. Now, Jake, you 332 00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:37,280 Speaker 1: might be asking me, maybe screaming at your car speaker 333 00:20:37,680 --> 00:20:40,359 Speaker 1: or whatever right now, going what brip pop bands are 334 00:20:40,400 --> 00:20:40,920 Speaker 1: you going to cover? 335 00:20:41,040 --> 00:20:41,200 Speaker 2: Dude? 336 00:20:42,359 --> 00:20:45,240 Speaker 1: Well, like I said, I think there's a blur. I 337 00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:49,040 Speaker 1: think there's blur and elastic episodes, perhaps a Damon and 338 00:20:49,160 --> 00:20:54,360 Speaker 1: just seeing joint episode. Maybe we write a really transgressive 339 00:20:54,640 --> 00:20:58,159 Speaker 1: kind of junkie love story from the nineties set in 340 00:20:58,200 --> 00:21:03,320 Speaker 1: the UK, explore all the drug the heroin, the crime 341 00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:06,960 Speaker 1: and grime, and the tabloid era that their relationship took 342 00:21:06,960 --> 00:21:10,880 Speaker 1: place in. That sounds interesting to me. I'm obsessed with 343 00:21:11,240 --> 00:21:14,960 Speaker 1: the rhymer of his love story at the moment. I 344 00:21:15,080 --> 00:21:18,800 Speaker 1: JFK Junior and Carolyn Bassett and maybe Damon and Justine 345 00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:21,239 Speaker 1: is our answer to that here in Disgrace Land. I 346 00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:24,439 Speaker 1: like this idea. It's nineties, it's the same era, but 347 00:21:24,480 --> 00:21:26,920 Speaker 1: it's a totally different scene, a totally different place obviously, 348 00:21:27,040 --> 00:21:30,440 Speaker 1: and it also has a completely kind of different type 349 00:21:30,440 --> 00:21:35,520 Speaker 1: of glamor, yet it's still glamorous. It's got similar tabloid madness. 350 00:21:35,640 --> 00:21:38,880 Speaker 1: It's just the UK rippop version. I'm loving this idea 351 00:21:38,880 --> 00:21:40,880 Speaker 1: as I'm talking about it to you right now. From 352 00:21:40,920 --> 00:21:45,480 Speaker 1: a crime angle, we've got heroin use, Damon's arrests, Elastica's 353 00:21:45,720 --> 00:21:48,119 Speaker 1: legal settlement with wire, all kinds of stuff we can 354 00:21:48,119 --> 00:21:52,399 Speaker 1: get into. There's also what I've learned here over the 355 00:21:52,480 --> 00:21:56,000 Speaker 1: years from you guys. I wish I could remember your 356 00:21:56,080 --> 00:21:58,720 Speaker 1: names who had written me on this subject, but quite 357 00:21:58,760 --> 00:22:00,600 Speaker 1: a few of you, more than a handful, have written 358 00:22:01,080 --> 00:22:03,879 Speaker 1: about another British band that we should cover that we 359 00:22:03,960 --> 00:22:06,960 Speaker 1: have not mentioned at all yet, and that is the 360 00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:13,920 Speaker 1: Happy Mondays, a group with an insane true crime backstory 361 00:22:14,119 --> 00:22:20,080 Speaker 1: including kidnapping, multiple kidnappings, assault. One of the kidnappings actually 362 00:22:20,119 --> 00:22:28,520 Speaker 1: both involve musical icons. I can't even can't believe these stories. 363 00:22:29,240 --> 00:22:33,480 Speaker 1: Heroin of course, not just using heroin, but large scale 364 00:22:33,640 --> 00:22:38,440 Speaker 1: drug smuggling and of course all manner of rock and 365 00:22:38,520 --> 00:22:42,000 Speaker 1: roll hedonism and debauchery. The Happy Mondays pre date britpop. 366 00:22:42,440 --> 00:22:45,240 Speaker 1: They go back to the wild sort of Manchester club 367 00:22:45,280 --> 00:22:49,560 Speaker 1: scene that was the decade before. But nonetheless This is 368 00:22:49,560 --> 00:22:54,480 Speaker 1: an insane story and one that needs further exploration and 369 00:22:54,560 --> 00:22:58,639 Speaker 1: most definitely its own Disgraceland episode on the Happy Mondays. 370 00:22:58,640 --> 00:23:01,240 Speaker 1: I want to talk more about the true crime story 371 00:23:01,240 --> 00:23:03,960 Speaker 1: of the Happy Mondays as well as the junkie love 372 00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:07,040 Speaker 1: story of Damon from Blur and Justine from Elastica with 373 00:23:07,200 --> 00:23:09,920 Speaker 1: Ze and figure out how these episodes will take shape. 374 00:23:09,920 --> 00:23:11,600 Speaker 1: We're gonna do that in the exclusive section of this 375 00:23:11,640 --> 00:23:16,720 Speaker 1: after party, where we'll reveal which rockstar rock stars the 376 00:23:16,720 --> 00:23:20,440 Speaker 1: Happy Mondays attempted to kidnap.

All right, 389 00:24:01,440 --> 00:24:03,560 Speaker 1: before we dive into all that, let's do a little 390 00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:07,160 Speaker 1: table setting here. As we mentioned, this week's Pete Doherty 391 00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:10,880 Speaker 1: from the Libertines episode is available for you to check 392 00:24:10,880 --> 00:24:16,480 Speaker 1: out and look. This story and the death of Mark Blanco, 393 00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:19,560 Speaker 1: who is hanging out with Pete Dodhugherty that night, is 394 00:24:19,640 --> 00:24:28,480 Speaker 1: one of the most underreported stories in music history. And 395 00:24:29,680 --> 00:24:31,840 Speaker 1: we did our part here. Look, we're not journalists. We're 396 00:24:31,840 --> 00:24:36,560 Speaker 1: not pretending to be journalists. We are storytellers, open source 397 00:24:36,880 --> 00:24:41,240 Speaker 1: storytellers who use information that's already been published. We don't 398 00:24:41,280 --> 00:24:45,640 Speaker 1: go out and dig up new stories. We source everything. 399 00:24:45,680 --> 00:24:47,840 Speaker 1: We're careful about it. We make sure that we're giving 400 00:24:47,840 --> 00:24:51,320 Speaker 1: you guys what really happened. But this story in particular 401 00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:56,800 Speaker 1: really requires some real journalism. And you know, I'm coming 402 00:24:56,840 --> 00:25:02,920 Speaker 1: across this is the second time in like this week 403 00:25:03,000 --> 00:25:06,280 Speaker 1: actually that I've come across this where we're telling these stories. 404 00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:08,640 Speaker 1: It's almost like so many of the stories we tell 405 00:25:08,640 --> 00:25:10,520 Speaker 1: this Gray Sand are from like the nineteen sixties and 406 00:25:10,520 --> 00:25:12,359 Speaker 1: seventies and eighties, and a lot of time has passed. 407 00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:14,520 Speaker 1: This story is from two thousand and six, not that 408 00:25:14,600 --> 00:25:16,960 Speaker 1: much time has passed, and I don't believe that the 409 00:25:17,040 --> 00:25:19,640 Speaker 1: facts are all out there or the truth is out there, 410 00:25:19,640 --> 00:25:22,080 Speaker 1: but I wanted to dip in and find our way 411 00:25:22,520 --> 00:25:26,480 Speaker 1: through this story. And you know, if I'm being totally frank, 412 00:25:26,560 --> 00:25:30,480 Speaker 1: we come up like with more questions than answers at 413 00:25:30,520 --> 00:25:32,760 Speaker 1: the end. And it's super frustrating because you know, I 414 00:25:32,760 --> 00:25:34,919 Speaker 1: get a business to run, I got a podcasts to 415 00:25:34,960 --> 00:25:36,960 Speaker 1: make every week. I can't just like we have a 416 00:25:36,960 --> 00:25:38,760 Speaker 1: way of doing it. I can't just like pack up 417 00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:41,520 Speaker 1: and fly to London and start asking people questions. Not 418 00:25:41,560 --> 00:25:43,120 Speaker 1: that anyone would even talk to me if I did 419 00:25:43,119 --> 00:25:46,199 Speaker 1: that anyhow, That's not what I do. So it's kind 420 00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:51,119 Speaker 1: of frustrating, and I don't understand why actual music journalists. 421 00:25:51,400 --> 00:25:54,000 Speaker 1: And again I've never called myself a journalist. Some people have. 422 00:25:54,200 --> 00:25:58,760 Speaker 1: I never have not from the beginning. Like a definition 423 00:25:58,800 --> 00:26:00,320 Speaker 1: of a journalist to me is not somebody who does 424 00:26:00,359 --> 00:26:02,280 Speaker 1: what I do. It definitely of a journalist to me 425 00:26:02,320 --> 00:26:04,719 Speaker 1: as somebody who goes out and actually digs up and 426 00:26:04,760 --> 00:26:10,760 Speaker 1: finds information for the first time, you know, like finds 427 00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:13,560 Speaker 1: information that has not yet been public. Everything we talk 428 00:26:13,600 --> 00:26:20,200 Speaker 1: about is public information. Oftentimes made public by the artists 429 00:26:20,280 --> 00:26:23,560 Speaker 1: themselves that we are covering in their autobiographies, and it 430 00:26:23,600 --> 00:26:26,720 Speaker 1: gets buried throughout time. So it becomes very interesting when 431 00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:28,800 Speaker 1: we get to it because a lot of this stuff 432 00:26:28,840 --> 00:26:31,639 Speaker 1: has sort of been shoved under the covers, because it 433 00:26:31,640 --> 00:26:33,800 Speaker 1: goes back, like I said, to the sixties, to seventies, 434 00:26:33,800 --> 00:26:37,000 Speaker 1: the eighties, the nineties here though again two thousand and 435 00:26:37,000 --> 00:26:39,320 Speaker 1: six not that long ago when you think about it. 436 00:26:40,359 --> 00:26:42,399 Speaker 1: I mean, two decades sounds like a long time, but 437 00:26:42,440 --> 00:26:50,919 Speaker 1: culturally not really. And this story still it's hard to 438 00:26:51,080 --> 00:26:55,679 Speaker 1: accept the story of how Mark Blanco died. I'm not 439 00:26:55,760 --> 00:27:00,119 Speaker 1: pointing any fingers. What the official story is may very 440 00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:01,879 Speaker 1: well be the case, but we it's just one of 441 00:27:01,880 --> 00:27:04,399 Speaker 1: those things where we need more evidence that proves it 442 00:27:04,680 --> 00:27:09,360 Speaker 1: that way one way or another. And I've similarly come 443 00:27:09,400 --> 00:27:12,720 Speaker 1: across the same challenge and the story that I'm researching 444 00:27:12,800 --> 00:27:18,840 Speaker 1: right now on the Food Fighters, which I mean, look, 445 00:27:18,880 --> 00:27:23,120 Speaker 1: man Taylor Hawkins died in twenty twenty two, and we 446 00:27:23,320 --> 00:27:27,800 Speaker 1: still don't know the cause of his death. He died tragically. 447 00:27:28,600 --> 00:27:31,399 Speaker 1: I say that as a point of fact, but that 448 00:27:31,520 --> 00:27:35,040 Speaker 1: is not the explanation for how he died, which if 449 00:27:35,040 --> 00:27:37,960 Speaker 1: you read anything about the food fighters over the last 450 00:27:37,960 --> 00:27:42,639 Speaker 1: few years. That's the explanation you're going to get. They'll 451 00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:45,960 Speaker 1: talk about drugs in his system, but that's not the 452 00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:51,960 Speaker 1: official take. They won't talk about an overdose. Again, more 453 00:27:52,080 --> 00:27:56,720 Speaker 1: questions than answers. And this is only four years ago. 454 00:27:57,240 --> 00:28:01,160 Speaker 1: And look, man like, I'm not trying to pry into 455 00:28:01,200 --> 00:28:04,240 Speaker 1: anybody's life. And I get the sensitivity that this has 456 00:28:04,359 --> 00:28:10,439 Speaker 1: with Taylor Hawkins's family, and certainly I would feel like 457 00:28:10,480 --> 00:28:12,960 Speaker 1: this shit was none of anybody's business if this was 458 00:28:13,040 --> 00:28:16,960 Speaker 1: my family member. But we know how Keith Moon died, 459 00:28:17,840 --> 00:28:22,159 Speaker 1: we know how John Bonham died. It just doesn't make 460 00:28:22,200 --> 00:28:25,080 Speaker 1: any sense that we don't know how Taylor Hawkins died. 461 00:28:25,840 --> 00:28:29,880 Speaker 1: And anyway, like the Pete Doherty story here, the death 462 00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:32,760 Speaker 1: of Mark Blanco, which Pete Doherty is at the center 463 00:28:32,840 --> 00:28:36,240 Speaker 1: of the death of Taylor Hawkins is one of those 464 00:28:36,240 --> 00:28:38,840 Speaker 1: things that we still don't have an answer for. I'm 465 00:28:38,840 --> 00:28:40,440 Speaker 1: gonna go a little bit harder into this one than 466 00:28:40,440 --> 00:28:42,160 Speaker 1: we did Pete Darty, and I'm gonna try to find out. 467 00:28:42,520 --> 00:28:45,600 Speaker 1: I'm not promising you anything, nothing at all, but I 468 00:28:45,640 --> 00:28:48,960 Speaker 1: am gonna ask questions that people don't seem to really 469 00:28:49,040 --> 00:28:52,320 Speaker 1: want to ask, and I don't think there's anything wrong 470 00:28:52,360 --> 00:28:56,560 Speaker 1: with that. People in the public public eye. That's the price. 471 00:28:56,640 --> 00:28:58,600 Speaker 1: And you can be a fan of the food Fighters. 472 00:28:59,440 --> 00:29:02,160 Speaker 1: I mean to Taylor Hawkins. I mean, he just struck 473 00:29:02,200 --> 00:29:03,560 Speaker 1: me as a type of guy. I never met him, 474 00:29:03,560 --> 00:29:04,840 Speaker 1: but he struck me as a type of guy that 475 00:29:04,880 --> 00:29:07,640 Speaker 1: if you met him, you would just instantly be like, 476 00:29:08,360 --> 00:29:12,640 Speaker 1: you know, just vibe. And he's just such a spirit 477 00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:16,040 Speaker 1: and an incredible talent. And our episode is not going 478 00:29:16,120 --> 00:29:17,760 Speaker 1: to be a takedown in any way, but it is 479 00:29:17,800 --> 00:29:21,320 Speaker 1: going to ask some questions and maybe perhaps at a 480 00:29:21,440 --> 00:29:25,000 Speaker 1: later date, we'll dive back into this Pete Doherty story 481 00:29:25,040 --> 00:29:29,520 Speaker 1: as well. But we need more journalism here, and I'm 482 00:29:29,560 --> 00:29:32,120 Speaker 1: appealing to the actual music journalists out there who listened 483 00:29:32,120 --> 00:29:34,960 Speaker 1: to the show. You know, come on, let's go, let's 484 00:29:34,960 --> 00:29:38,120 Speaker 1: figure this out, all right. Anyways, I say all that 485 00:29:38,480 --> 00:29:40,640 Speaker 1: because we're in the midst of Pete Doherty week here 486 00:29:41,360 --> 00:29:44,280 Speaker 1: in this graceland.

I 549 00:33:05,880 --> 00:33:08,800 Speaker 1: guess I guess you're comparing them because I guess I 550 00:33:08,840 --> 00:33:10,840 Speaker 1: was talking a lot about Patty Smith in the last episode, 551 00:33:10,840 --> 00:33:14,760 Speaker 1: and I get that.

Melissa, I agree with you one hundred percent. 596 00:35:24,160 --> 00:35:28,360 Speaker 1: I'll go even a step farther and say that Nancy 597 00:35:28,800 --> 00:35:33,520 Speaker 1: should get more recognition for her guitar playing. She's one 598 00:35:33,600 --> 00:35:38,040 Speaker 1: of the best in classic rock and not and I 599 00:35:38,040 --> 00:35:41,560 Speaker 1: don't mean like ripping off solos. I mean just as 600 00:35:41,600 --> 00:35:46,240 Speaker 1: her guitar playing sets the stage for the songwriting in heart, 601 00:35:46,440 --> 00:35:50,080 Speaker 1: it's kind of unmistakably her, which is awesome. Three h 602 00:35:50,160 --> 00:35:52,880 Speaker 1: two rites in how many messages did you get giving 603 00:35:52,920 --> 00:35:56,160 Speaker 1: you shit for omitting Susie Quatro from your most Influential 604 00:35:56,200 --> 00:35:59,040 Speaker 1: Female Rock Musicians discussion. I didn't think I omitted her. 605 00:35:59,840 --> 00:36:01,880 Speaker 1: I think we talked about her. I think she was 606 00:36:02,360 --> 00:36:06,200 Speaker 1: brought up by you guys, by the listeners first. And yeah, 607 00:36:06,200 --> 00:36:09,040 Speaker 1: we have a Susie Squatro episode coming three oh two, 608 00:36:09,360 --> 00:36:12,920 Speaker 1: so you will not be disappointed.

Damn, 615 00:36:35,400 --> 00:36:40,560 Speaker 1: you are absolutely right, Carol King. Her influence is hard 616 00:36:40,800 --> 00:36:45,600 Speaker 1: to measure in pop music. She's incredible, incredible, all right. 617 00:36:45,640 --> 00:36:47,520 Speaker 1: One little message here in the Rock and Roll Hall 618 00:36:47,520 --> 00:36:49,719 Speaker 1: of Fame nominee is this one because I want to 619 00:36:49,760 --> 00:36:51,960 Speaker 1: keep this conversation going with y'all. By the way, did 620 00:36:51,960 --> 00:36:53,560 Speaker 1: we talk about that in the I think we just 621 00:36:53,560 --> 00:36:56,680 Speaker 1: talked about it in the exclusive section last week. But anyways, 622 00:36:56,760 --> 00:36:59,120 Speaker 1: this one comes from Jason four one six Hey rock 623 00:36:59,280 --> 00:37:01,839 Speaker 1: Hall non and he's the one I'm really pulling for. 624 00:37:02,000 --> 00:37:05,120 Speaker 1: Is Joy Division New Order. It'll be a very blue 625 00:37:05,160 --> 00:37:08,520 Speaker 1: Monday if they don't get in highly highly influential. I 626 00:37:08,520 --> 00:37:11,080 Speaker 1: can't imagine the soundtrack of My life without at least 627 00:37:11,200 --> 00:37:14,000 Speaker 1: three Joy Division and three New Order songs on my 628 00:37:14,040 --> 00:37:16,839 Speaker 1: triple album saw them in twenty twenty two with Pet 629 00:37:16,840 --> 00:37:19,480 Speaker 1: Shop Boys and the show Blazed. I also noted that 630 00:37:19,520 --> 00:37:21,760 Speaker 1: it was not just gen xers like me and the audience, 631 00:37:21,880 --> 00:37:24,200 Speaker 1: people of all ages and many twenty and thirty somethings 632 00:37:24,280 --> 00:37:27,680 Speaker 1: rock and rolla yes, hugely influential and relevant to the 633 00:37:27,719 --> 00:37:33,279 Speaker 1: conversation we were having earlier about British bands. I don't know, man, 634 00:37:33,400 --> 00:37:36,640 Speaker 1: I have a problem with this one. Not that I 635 00:37:36,680 --> 00:37:41,000 Speaker 1: don't love the music or the band z a plural, 636 00:37:41,160 --> 00:37:43,799 Speaker 1: but it's the fact that the rock and Roll Hall 637 00:37:43,880 --> 00:37:48,560 Speaker 1: of Fame is inducting like a hybrid Joy Division slash 638 00:37:48,719 --> 00:37:50,840 Speaker 1: New Order. And I get why, it's just the difference 639 00:37:50,880 --> 00:37:54,279 Speaker 1: of a singer, right, It just seems fucking weird to me, 640 00:37:54,680 --> 00:38:00,759 Speaker 1: Like just like induct New Order and then inducting Curtis 641 00:38:01,280 --> 00:38:04,240 Speaker 1: at a later date or something. Doesn't this seem weird? 642 00:38:04,360 --> 00:38:06,200 Speaker 1: Doesn't this open a can of worms that we're not 643 00:38:06,320 --> 00:38:08,560 Speaker 1: that we're gonna be upset that we opened in like 644 00:38:08,880 --> 00:38:12,480 Speaker 1: five ten years. I don't know. Just seems kind of 645 00:38:12,480 --> 00:38:15,880 Speaker 1: odd to me. But I hear you hugely influential, and 646 00:38:15,920 --> 00:38:17,440 Speaker 1: I get it, and I love them too, and I 647 00:38:17,520 --> 00:38:21,080 Speaker 1: understand their greatness. I get it. Just there's something about 648 00:38:21,080 --> 00:38:23,480 Speaker 1: that the way it's being done rubs me the wrong way, 649 00:38:23,520 --> 00:38:26,040 Speaker 1: and it probably working against them if we're being if 650 00:38:26,040 --> 00:38:28,200 Speaker 1: we're being honest about it. But then again, we don't 651 00:38:28,200 --> 00:38:30,520 Speaker 1: know how these things get decided, so who the fuck knows? 652 00:38:31,800 --> 00:38:34,200 Speaker 1: All right, six one seven nine oh six six six 653 00:38:34,440 --> 00:38:36,480 Speaker 1: three eight, voicemail and text you guys want to get 654 00:38:36,520 --> 00:38:42,319 Speaker 1: at me at disgrace, slam pod on the socials, Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, 655 00:38:42,480 --> 00:38:44,560 Speaker 1: you how to do it.

I know you guys like it. 659 00:39:10,960 --> 00:39:13,560 Speaker 1: I like it. I like talking about what music I'm into. 660 00:39:13,680 --> 00:39:17,080 Speaker 1: I like talking about what music and films combined get 661 00:39:17,120 --> 00:39:19,719 Speaker 1: me going. I like talking about books. I'm reading movies, 662 00:39:19,760 --> 00:39:22,680 Speaker 1: I'm watching all that stuff. But I've been thinking, I've 663 00:39:22,680 --> 00:39:26,320 Speaker 1: been guys, this is gonna sound so fucked up. I 664 00:39:27,520 --> 00:39:30,320 Speaker 1: don't even know how to start this. I've been listening 665 00:39:30,360 --> 00:39:36,200 Speaker 1: to more new music that I have in the last decade, 666 00:39:37,600 --> 00:39:41,480 Speaker 1: and I have a take on why, but I can't 667 00:39:41,560 --> 00:39:44,600 Speaker 1: really articulate it yet. It has a lot to do 668 00:39:44,680 --> 00:39:47,880 Speaker 1: with how I don't like how modern rock and modern 669 00:39:47,920 --> 00:39:52,439 Speaker 1: guitar oriented music is produced in this sort of new 670 00:39:52,480 --> 00:39:54,560 Speaker 1: age of production that we're into, where everything's kind of 671 00:39:54,600 --> 00:39:57,279 Speaker 1: done in the box, so to speak. In the way 672 00:39:57,320 --> 00:39:59,560 Speaker 1: things sound. It just sounds different from how I was raised, 673 00:39:59,600 --> 00:40:03,040 Speaker 1: but going to get into that. However, I've sort of 674 00:40:03,480 --> 00:40:08,400 Speaker 1: opened myself up a little bit to being very curious 675 00:40:08,440 --> 00:40:15,120 Speaker 1: of modern pop music. And this is largely spun spun 676 00:40:15,200 --> 00:40:17,799 Speaker 1: me out from there's spun out, I should say, and 677 00:40:17,840 --> 00:40:20,480 Speaker 1: spun me out, spun out from me being on TikTok 678 00:40:20,719 --> 00:40:24,080 Speaker 1: and scrolling through and hearing stuff. I'm like, what the 679 00:40:24,080 --> 00:40:31,080 Speaker 1: fuck is that? That's good and you know it's new shit, 680 00:40:31,200 --> 00:40:33,600 Speaker 1: but it's not new rock, and it's not new ponk 681 00:40:33,680 --> 00:40:37,920 Speaker 1: or hardcore. It's like new fucking hip hop and Top forty. 682 00:40:37,960 --> 00:40:41,440 Speaker 1: I know that sounds insane, mainly Top forty. I like 683 00:40:42,120 --> 00:40:45,560 Speaker 1: the new Harry Styles American Girls song. I know some 684 00:40:45,640 --> 00:40:47,359 Speaker 1: of you are vomiting in your mouth. I don't care. 685 00:40:47,680 --> 00:40:51,440 Speaker 1: It's a good song and I can appreciate that song 686 00:40:51,840 --> 00:40:55,520 Speaker 1: the same way that I could appreciate George Michael in 687 00:40:55,560 --> 00:40:58,120 Speaker 1: the nineties. I like, it's not that new, it's from 688 00:40:58,120 --> 00:41:02,879 Speaker 1: twenty twenty four. The Dochi song Denial is a River. 689 00:41:03,480 --> 00:41:07,840 Speaker 1: It's fucking incredible. Everything I've heard by her is incredible, 690 00:41:07,840 --> 00:41:10,080 Speaker 1: by the way, which is new. This is like the 691 00:41:10,160 --> 00:41:15,399 Speaker 1: last few days for me. But I can appreciate her 692 00:41:15,480 --> 00:41:18,799 Speaker 1: stuff in the same way that I can appreciate Salt 693 00:41:18,840 --> 00:41:21,840 Speaker 1: and Pepa from the eighties or en Vogue or something 694 00:41:21,880 --> 00:41:25,520 Speaker 1: like that, which I love Doja Cat same thing. You're 695 00:41:25,520 --> 00:41:27,919 Speaker 1: gonna think I'm nuts, but I can appreciate that shit 696 00:41:28,000 --> 00:41:30,359 Speaker 1: the same way I can appreciate Kanye stuff from like, 697 00:41:31,360 --> 00:41:35,600 Speaker 1: you know, the twenty tens or whatever. So I'm not 698 00:41:35,640 --> 00:41:37,279 Speaker 1: saying that like we're gonna do recommendations is gonna be 699 00:41:37,320 --> 00:41:38,759 Speaker 1: all new music. I'm not saying that, you know. In 700 00:41:38,760 --> 00:41:42,560 Speaker 1: addition to I'm also like I've just have late onset 701 00:41:42,640 --> 00:41:45,840 Speaker 1: father John Misty appreciation. That's happened to me over the 702 00:41:45,920 --> 00:41:48,759 Speaker 1: last month. I've always kind of been curious and liked, 703 00:41:49,520 --> 00:41:51,839 Speaker 1: you know, what's a real love baby, that huge song. 704 00:41:51,880 --> 00:41:54,640 Speaker 1: But I've now I'm like, I'm deeper into the albums, 705 00:41:54,680 --> 00:41:56,279 Speaker 1: and that makes sense. If I told you I was 706 00:41:56,320 --> 00:41:57,680 Speaker 1: getting into that that was kind of a new thing 707 00:41:57,760 --> 00:41:59,399 Speaker 1: for me, even though he's not new, but a new 708 00:41:59,400 --> 00:42:01,160 Speaker 1: thing for me, guy would go, I gotta get that 709 00:42:02,440 --> 00:42:04,880 Speaker 1: the dough chy stuff though, that makes no sense, and 710 00:42:04,920 --> 00:42:07,239 Speaker 1: I'm not saying again, I'm not saying that, like are 711 00:42:07,320 --> 00:42:09,440 Speaker 1: the recommendations We're gonna be doing it gonna be like 712 00:42:09,640 --> 00:42:13,400 Speaker 1: new pop music. But I'm just gonna be honest with 713 00:42:13,400 --> 00:42:16,400 Speaker 1: what I'm listening to and let you guys know. And 714 00:42:16,960 --> 00:42:19,359 Speaker 1: I think it's a good thing. You know, I'm being 715 00:42:19,400 --> 00:42:22,480 Speaker 1: turned on to new shit, filthy, some of it. Do 716 00:42:22,680 --> 00:42:26,560 Speaker 1: Chi stuff is filthy. It's great. Anyhow, We're gonna be 717 00:42:26,600 --> 00:42:32,320 Speaker 1: doing the res over in Zeth's Rap Party episodes because 718 00:42:32,360 --> 00:42:35,000 Speaker 1: these after parties are jammed and we used to do 719 00:42:35,080 --> 00:42:39,560 Speaker 1: them over there, and then we stopped for reasons I 720 00:42:39,920 --> 00:42:42,520 Speaker 1: can't remember. But we're gonna start doing them again over 721 00:42:42,560 --> 00:42:46,160 Speaker 1: They'll be over there, and uh, don't worry, you won't forget. 722 00:42:46,480 --> 00:42:50,319 Speaker 1: I'll remind you here in the after party. And the 723 00:42:50,360 --> 00:42:54,160 Speaker 1: best part of the recommendations is it cues up this 724 00:42:54,200 --> 00:42:56,399 Speaker 1: conversation with you guys, and you start to send us 725 00:42:56,600 --> 00:42:59,960 Speaker 1: your recommendations, which is what we want.

Jason Bateman Slowburn DTF, 731 00:43:19,400 --> 00:43:21,480 Speaker 1: which I don't hate, but I mean, I just like, 732 00:43:21,520 --> 00:43:24,160 Speaker 1: I've given this thing, now what four hours of my life, 733 00:43:24,200 --> 00:43:28,759 Speaker 1: and I'm just mildly entertained.
