185. PETE KEMBER (A.K.A. SONIC BOOM) RATES SPACEMEN 3 (PART THREE)
Description
With Dave’s Mom undergoing home hospice and then passing away during the taping of this series, this 6 1/2 hour interview literalizes the ego-death slant of this classic psych band's lyrics. Whether or not you’re on drugs, Spacemen 3 has the absolute best music to keep you grounded during life’s rollercoaster freakouts.
Here’s just a few of the many things Pete and I discuss in this podcast:
- The very moment when the rot and discontent began infiltrating the Spacemen 3 world;
- Why the band’s relationship with their record company came limping out of the gate right from the go;
- The origin of the band’s “no girls on the bus” policy;
- How Pete really feels about Spiritualized;
- Not to mention a fascinating deep-dive on Playing With Fire, and the twin live documents Performance and Dreamweapon!
