401. Judy Grunwald & Beth Kaplan - Salem 66

On this episode, we’re joined by Judy Grunwald and Beth Kaplan of Salem 66, the trailblazing indie rock band formed in Boston in 1981. In a scene that birthed Mission of Burma, The Lemonheads, and Dinosaur Jr., Salem 66 stood out with their fearless, melodic post-punk sound. Over the decade, they released acclaimed records on Homestead—home to Sonic Youth and Big Black—and shared stages with The Replacements and The Raincoats. Now, after years out of print, Don Giovanni Records has reissued their music with SALT, a new vinyl compilation and their first-ever streaming release.MusicThe Charms "So Pretty"The Dogmatics "I Love Rock N Roll"Produced and Hosted by Steev Riccardo
