EPYSODE 50: "Axe Victim" by Be-Bop Deluxe. Guest: Bill Nelson. This week we revisit "Axe Victim" — the 1974 debut by Be Bop Deluxe that blended glam rock attitude with progressive rock sophistication and established Bill Nelson as one of the era’s most inventive guitarists. Featuring exclusive commentary from Bill Nelson himself, this conversation takes us inside the making of the album, the musical landscape of the mid-’70s, and how "Axe Victim" set the stage for Be Bop Deluxe’s adventurous career. Discover the stories behind the songs, the influences that shaped the record, and why this cult favourite still resonates with fans today.

EPYSODE 49: "Everything But" by The Kitchen Cinq. Guest: The Kitchen Cinq's Jim Parker. This week we spin "Everything But" , the lone 1967 full-length by Amarillo’s own The Kitchen Cinq, a band that bridged Texas garage energy with West Coast pop ambitions.

EPYSODE 45 (pt. 1): "Hollywood Dream" by Thunderclap Newman. Guest: Mark Wilkerson, author of "Hollywood Dream: The Thunderclap Newman Story". If you can't beat 'em...ask 'em to be on your show. I thought I was the only Thunderclap Newman fanatic (Thunderhead? Newmanhead??). When I came up with the ingenious idea of interviewing Pete Townshend, my theory was that he was probably so sick of answering the same old questions about The Who and his solo career that he would welcome chatting about this band that he put together and the album he produced. Turns out, I was right. Little did I know however that someone else was already talking to Pete about this very subject, and was delving deep to uncover the story of this almost forgotten band. Who better than to have on the show then the guy Pete says "knows more about Thunderclap Newman than I do". This epysode dives into the story of the unlikely characters that make up this utterly unique band, their fascinating album and the amazing journey author Mark Wilkerson took to write his compelling book.

EPYSODE 44 (pt. 1): "Back To The Egg" by Wings. Guest: Wings' guitarist Laurence Juber. Rules are meant to be broken. I couldn't help myself. I know I said that I would be discussing "under-the-radar" types of albums on this show. So why am I featuring an album that sold 4 million copies, won a grammy, and whose bandleader just so happens to be Sir Paul McCartney?!? 'Cuz I love this one!! Many critics (and some fans) have a different opinion of this record. These are the people I like to call...wrong. "Back To The Egg" has divided music listeners for over 4 decades now. With some wonderful commentary from Wings' guitarist Laurence Juber, we break down the songs to explain why this really IS a fantastic album.

Known for their all-black attire and snarling, hypnotic sound, The Music Machine helped define the garage rock era with hits like “Talk Talk” and “The People In Me.” We’re joined by  guest Mark Landon, the band’s guitarist, who shares exclusive behind-the-scenes stories from the recording sessions, insights into their creative process, and what it was like to be part of one of the most influential — and underrated — acts of the ‘60s. Thanks for tuning in, turning on & dropping by Vinyl Relics.

EPYSODE 42: "Before The Dream Faded" by The Misunderstood. Guest: Misunderstood lead singer Rick Brown. This week we turn the spotlight on one of the most tragically overlooked albums of the psychedelic era... "Before the Dream Faded" by The Misunderstood. Formed in Riverside, California and exiled to London in the mid-'60s, The Misunderstood fused American garage rock with British psychedelia, creating a sound that was years ahead of its time. With searing slide guitar, political lyrics, and sonic ambition to spare, their music foreshadowed both heavy rock and acid experimentation and yet, they faded before they could truly rise. We’re joined by guest Rick Brown, the band’s original lead singer, who shares powerful firsthand stories about the band's creative vision, their turbulent rise, and the circumstances that tore them apart just as they were poised for greatness. It's one of the most fascinating “what coulda been” stories in rock history. Thanks for tuning in, turning on & dropping by Vinyl Relics. I hope you dig "Before The Dream Faded" 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 here --> @VinylRelicsPod Email me here --> 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/1Pr8RWEhBaLCgU1fP5HAmT?si=56f23d77f6eb4188 GENESIS "Angeline" THE ANIMALS "Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood" THE MISUNDERSTOOD "End Of Time" THE MISUNDERSTOOD "She Got Me" (version 1) THE MISUNDERSTOOD "She Got Me" (version 2) THE MISUNDERSTOOD "Why" THE MISUNDERSTOOD "Thunder 'N Lightnin'" GLEN CAMPBELL "Rhinestone Cowboy" LEON MCAULIFFE & HIS WESTERN STRING BAND “Take It Away, Leon” *THE GOLDTONES “Gutterball” THE MISUNDERSTOOD “Who’s Been Talkin’” THE YARDBIRDS “Mister, You’re A Better Man Than I” THE YARDBIRDS “I’m A Man” THE CREATION “Making Time” THE YARDBIRDS “Shapes Of Things” THE MISUNDERSTOOD “Children Of The Sun” THE MISUNDERSTOOD “My Mind” *THE MISUNDERSTOOD “Who Do You Love” THE YARDBIRDS “Still I’m Sad”  THE MISUNDERSTOOD “I Unseen” THE MISUNDERSTOOD “Find The Hidden Door” THE MISUNDERSTOOD “I Can Take You To The Sun” THE MISUNDERSTOOD “I’m Not Talking” THE MISUNDERSTOOD “Who’s Been Talking” THE MISUNDERSTOOD “I Need Your Love” THE MISUNDERSTOOD “You Don’t Have To Go” THE MISUNDERSTOOD “I Cried My Eyes Out” THE MISUNDERSTOOD “Like I Do” THE MISUNDERSTOOD “You’ve Got Me Crying Over Love” *THE DIRTY BLUES BAND “Checking Up On My Baby” THE MISUNDERSTOOD “Golden Glass” JUICY LUCY “Who Do You Love” HIGH TIDE “Nowhere” THE MISUNDERSTOOD “No Survivors” THE MISUNDERSTOOD “Mona” ??MYSTERY ARTIST?? tune in next week to find out...

EPYSODE 41: "In The Beginning" by Genesis. Guest: Genesis bassist "Foxy" Fred Rivera. This week we dig into one of the great overlooked curiosities of late-‘60s American rock: "In the Beginning" by the Los Angeles-based Genesis — not the British prog giants, but a raw, garage-psych outfit that burned bright and fast in 1968. With its blend of fuzzed-out guitars, moody organ lines, and Sunset Strip attitude, this epysode uncovers why this album has become a cult favorite among psych-rock collectors and crate diggers alike. We’re joined by  guest Fred “Foxy” Rivera, the original bassist of the band, who shares exclusive firsthand stories from inside the L.A. scene, the band’s short-lived journey, and what really went down behind the recording of their one and only album.

EPYSODE 39: "Here Are The Sonics!!!" by The Sonics. Guests: Sonics drummer Bob Bennett and filmmaker Jordan Albertsen. NOTE: Sadly, I was not aware that my guest Bob Bennett had passed until this epysode was released. Bob's drumming was ferocious, and a key to the Sonics' sound. He shared some great stories and I really enjoyed our discussion. This represents likely the last interview he gave about his time with this amazing band. My sincere condolences to the Bennett family for your loss. You'll be missed Bob, you were one of the greats. Thank you for giving us, your fans, the gift of your timeless music. Rest in peace... - John Crank up the volume, it's time for "Here Are The Sonics!!!", the ferocious 1965 debut from Tacoma’s own The Sonics, a band whose sound was decades ahead of its time. We’re joined by Bob Bennett, the band’s original drummer, and Jordan Albertsen, writer/director of "Boom! A Film About The Sonics", for exclusive commentary and behind-the-scenes stories. Together, we dive into the legacy of this seminal album, its influence on garage, grunge, and punk—and ask the big question: Were The Sonics the first punk band?
