#138 - Taylor Hawkins | Indie Labels | Jam Bands

We begin this week with a tribute to Taylor Hawkins, the talented and charismatic drummer for the Foo Fighters, who died unexpectedly last week at the age of 50. It was completely unexpected and tragic and the music community at large seems still to be grappling with the news. Greg takes the reigns…Songs:Foo Fighters - “My Hero”Alanis Morisette - “You Outta Know”Foo Fighters - “Rope”Taylor Hawkins Drum SoloFoo Fighters (with Taylor on vocals) - “Somebody to Love”Nick read a story about the success that the independent label Wrong Speed Records has found in the 2 years since its founding. It got him thinking about the role of small independent labels in today’s music industry. What is the point of a small label? That’s what we aim to find out and the conservation is pretty interesting!Song: Black Midi - 21st Century Schizoid ManJay doesn’t like jam bands. This statement, possibly an over-generalization, was something Jay felt he’d settled on…until he discovered Goose (he’s definitely a fan). So what’s with this ‘jam band’ genre anyway? Jay digs into the good, the bad and the Dead…Song: Goose - “So Ready”For those of you wishing to learn more about A.R.S.E.S.
