Leslie Bohem and David Kendrick of The Gleaming Spires
I have an educational interview with Leslie Bohem and David Kendrick of The Gleaming Spires. We discuss how the band became part of Spark and how their side-project Gleaming Spires came into being.
I have a short chat with Bob Burger of The Weeklings and then Glen Burtnik joins in halfway through. We discuss some obvious truths, and how the band formed, plus a little about the new live album “In Their Own Write.” Please forgive some of the technical difficulties, and see if you can find all the “easter eggs” about The Beatles in all their music.
Aaron talks to Tom Hartman, lead singer-songwriter of the “lost” band The Aerovons. We discuss the band’s history, getting signed to The Beatles label Parlophone Records in 1969, recording at Abbey Road Studios, and what it was like at that time. Plus we discuss how “Resurrection” and “A Little More” finally got released nearly 50 years later! The video “Swinging London” recalls those fascinating days when The Aerovons were almost destined for stardom.
Aaron talks to Swedish musician David Myhr, formerly with The Merrymakers. We discuss “And Now This” his new EP full of sharp pop tunes and how The Merrymakers dissolved, and his prolific solo career. Read the album review here and listen and see the video below!
During their years together from 1992 to 1998, Wanderlust had a chart-topping single “I Walked,” opened for The Who, andwere critically acclaimed by the London Sunday Times, declaring the album ‘Prize” “one of the greatest rock records of all time.
Wanderlust returned to the studio this year and recorded an 11 song album packed with gems! I talked with Rob Bonfiglio and Scot Sax, the band’s two main songwriter-musicians. We talk about the band’s history and how this new LP came about.
