This week: a brand-new interview with the legendary Randy Bachman, who talks about the early days of The Guess Who and BTO, as well as his complicated relationship with Burton Cummings. Randy also tells the very funny story about the time his own father called the cops on him. The amazing 7-disc “Bachman Cummings collection” is now available.
We also have an entertaining 1986 chat with Neil Finn as he talks about the end of Split Enz and the creation of Crowded House. Neil, as always, is incredibly amusing and likeable
And we end the episode with a band that doesn’t get enough respect – Kool & The Gang. In a chat from the mid ‘80s, Robert “Kool” Bell talks about their incredible success, how they ended up on the Band Aid song "Do They Know It's Christmas" and their connection with Jimi Hendrix and Richard Pryor.
