186. SONIC BOOM (A.K.A. PETE KEMBER)) REVEALS THE FULL STORY BEHIND SPACEMEN 3 AND RATES ALL THEIR RECORDS (PART 4: RECURRING)

This 6 1/2 hour Discograffiti podcast interview series is an unprecedented, no-holds-barred honest account of Pete’s output and experience in the legendary psych band Spacemen 3.   Here’s just a few of the many things Pete and I discuss in this podcast:   An examination of the end of Pete’s love affair with opiates, and how that train came to a stop; The endless ways in which the band was being manipulated & screwed over by the end; The crazy tale of how Spiritualized was born behind Pete’s back, and how he discovered its existence during a one-man sting operation; Some of the biggest whip-cracking taskmasters with whom Pete’s ever worked; A fascinating deep-dive on their final album, Recurring; Not to mention the background story behind his masterful new holiday LP with Dean & Britta, out now on Carpark Records…A Peace Of Us!   Listen: https://podfollow.com/1592182331⁠⁠   I support a wife and a five-year-old son with Discograffiti as my sole source of income.    If you’re a Spacemen 3 superfan like me, you’ll want THE DIRECTOR’S CUT of this episode.
