Unlikely Places P&R Radio Podcast

Today we sit down through the interwebs with Jeff Cotton of The Magic  Band MU, the Exiles and more. Thank you Billy from Glass Onyon!    - Jeffrey Ralph Cotton (born May 31, 1948) is an American rock  guitarist, known for his work as a member of Captain Beefheart's Magic  Band.[1] Cotton first came to attention as guitarist with Merrell and  the Exiles, who had a few local hits in 1964 in the Los Angeles area. He  subsequently joined Blues in a Bottle, which also featured future Magic  Band members Mark Boston, Bill Harkleroad and John French. He was  recruited into the Magic Band in 1967 as a replacement for Ry Cooder.  Cotton contributed unique and challenging slide guitar to live  performances, Strictly Personal, Mirror Man and Trout Mask Replica; for  which he was renamed Antennae Jimmy Semens. He left the Magic Band in  1970 after being attacked by temporary drummer Jeff Bruschell during a  group "talk" and having ribs broken. But this was probably just the  final straw, having experienced the reclusive 8 months of rehearsals for  Trout Mask Replica during which Beefheart experimented on the group  members with sleep deprivation, food deprivation, and physical violence  in an attempt to break their mental state down. He renewed his  professional relationship with Merrell Fankhauser (of The Exiles) in a  band called MU.[2] Despite a critically acclaimed album there was no  commercial success, and he retired from the music business in 1975. He  is back now with a brand new solo album.- (Taken from Wiki)   What a pleasure talking with Jeff Cotton, i was stunned and shocked at  the story he had.

Rex and Christina of Big Stir Records - UPPRR Podcasts 019 Oh hey,  Today's podcast is brought to you by Robo Jack Records: https://robojackrecords.com/ Rex and Christina of Big Stir Records, have appeared in the wilds of Unlikely Places!   BIG  STIR RECORDS has come a long way since its humble beginnings in 2017 as  a home imprint for the bands of the Los Angeles pop rock scene. The  Burbank-based label, founded by Christina Bulbenko and Rex Broome of THE  ARMOIRES, now lays claim to a roster of over 30 artists from as far  afield as the UK, Sweden, Finland, Germany and coast to coast within the  US, and a partnership with the acclaimed SpyderPop Records of Texas.  BSR has issued more than 70 albums on vinyl and CD, all available on  record store shelves in the US, UK and EU and streaming worldwide. With  their focus on broadening the artistic parameters of the pop rock sound  while retaining all the melodic hooks of the classic template, Big Stir  has been hailed as as “the best thing to happen to the pop rock scene in  ages, and long overdue” by Don Valentine of I DON'T HEAR A SINGLE in  the UK, and recognized as Label of The Year by DJs from Sacramento to  France.  The  community ethos established by Bulbenko and Broome knits together the  leading lights of today's global guitar pop universe – MAPLE MARS, CHRIS  CHURCH, THE CORNER LAUGHERS, NICK FRATER, SPYGENIUS, PLASTICSOUL and  more – with emerging artists like LIBRARIANS WITH HICKEYS, DOLPH CHANEY,  THE BROTHERS STEVE, KAI DANZBERG, WALKER BRIGADE and AMOEBA TEEN. BSR  is also now home to titans of the genre including SORROWS, TONY  VALENTINO of The Standells, STEVE STOECKEL of The Spongetones, LANNIE  FLOWERS of The Pengwins, legendary psych-rock troubadour ANTON BARBEAU,  and THE FLASHCUBES. Christina and Rex see Big Stir as a creative  playground for their artists to flourish in pushing the parameters of  everything melodic rock and roll has been over the course of its rich  history. The consistent critical accolades for their releases and the  label's mantra “Pop Outside The Box” bear that out as a winning  non-formula. The only thing you can expect from a Big Stir Records  release is the unexpected, drawing from the full spectrum of the pop  rock paradigm, but pushing it ever forward.
