Music:Music Interviews
Happy "HEAVY HOLIDAYS" Metalheads.
In this episode we talk with professional rock photographer Frank White and veteran metal singer Alan Tecchio, who have just co-authored a brand new book titled JERSEY METAL – A History of the Garden State’s Heavy Metal Scene – Volume One (1969-1986).
Unique talking points include Frank White photographing LED ZEPPELIN as a 12 year-old budding Photographer at the legendary Madison Square Garden, ACDC in New York city and TWISTED SISTER in the bars of Long Island.
Full details on early METALLICA and ANTHRAX as well as legendary local bands OVERKILL and TT Quick.
In Jersey Metal Frank and Alan team up to offer a unique, autobiographical perspective on NJ's Heavy Metal music history through photos, ads, interviews and band bios. Jersey Metal Volume One covers the early years from 1969 through 1986. The book focuses not just on artists and bands from the Garden State but also world-wide acts, local original, cover as well as tribute bands that played NJ. There is also respect paid to the venues these groups frequented, the radio stations, record companies, stores and the Jersey shore that all helped grow New Jersey's wild Heavy Metal scene.
Frank White has been a music photographer for forty seven years, selling his photos nationally and internationally to a variety of music magazines.
He toured with bands as their photographer in the late 1980's and early 1990's. Frank became an author in 2018 with two books in print to date.
Alan Tecchio has been a singer in Metal bands starting in the early 1980's with Prophecy, Aggressor, Hades, Non Fiction, Watchtower, All Time Low, Seven Witches, Power and more recently with Level Fields and Mike LePond's Silent Assassins. He has also been a writer, columnist and graphic designer for nearly thirty years and has interviewed dozens of Metal bands.
A great unique conversation filled with in-depth antidotes and disclosures found only here at Metal Mayhem ROC.
