1104 - Oasis, The Kinks, Yvonne Elliman, Cool Song Facts!

First up, Christopher and Tom talk about artists who have come back when many people had bet against them – from Tina Turner to The Rolling Stones to Miley Cyrus to The Chicks.           In light of the recent Oasis reunion, we have some incredible clips of both Liam and Noel Gallagher from almost 25 years ago, years before their split and decades before their reunion.  It’s a great, and often very funny, collection of comments and insight from the brothers.           Plus, we talk to our good friend Bill Welychka, whose interviews with Liam and Noel are what we’re highlighting this week.  And Bill has some great insights into the brothers.           Speaking of brothers, The Kinks were fueled by the Davies brothers, Ray and Dave – and they, like the Gallaghers, created incredible music while also feuding bitterly with each other.  This chat is from 1979, as the Kinks were promoting the Low Budget, which was somewhat of comeback for them.  And Christopher is going to love what he has to say about songwriting.           Then we feature a brief couple of clips with a woman who had two very different hits in the ‘70s.  Yvonne Elliman was featured on the Jesus Christ Superstar album in the early ‘70s and then on the Saturday Night Fever album a few years later.  The story of Yvonne’s big break is a great one… and she tells it well.  We’ll also hear how she walked away from a deal that could have meant millions of dollars in the long run – and how she dealt with that.           And we wrap up the show with Cool Song Facts… in which we find out what huge Stones song got the thumbs down by Mick and Keith… thank god they were outvoted.   Famous Lost Words, hosted by Christopher Ward and Tom Jokic, is heard in more than 100 countries worldwide and on radio stations across Canada, including Newstalk 1010 Toronto, CJAD 800 Montreal, 580 CFRA Ottawa, AM 800 CKLW Windsor, 610 CKTB St Catharines, CFAX Victoria and 91x in Belleville.  It is in the Top 20% of worldwide podcasts based on the number of listeners in the first week.
