602 - INXS, The Go-Go's, TJ vs The VJ

       We’ve got an excess of INXS this week! First up is a 1982 chat with Michael Hutchence from the band’s early days, talking about honing their sound in Australia, plus his partnership with Andrew Farriss. Then, we have a new interview with Andrew himself, who looks back at those heady days in the ‘80s and ‘90s when INXS toured the world and ruled the charts.       We also have a new interview with Kathy Valentine of The Go-Go’s, talking about her role in that influential band and how one of her songs helped keep the group together. We also spoke about the recent Go-Go’s documentary and the renewed push to get them inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.       Plus – we debut the grudge match for the ages – it’s “TJ Versus The VJ” as Tom & Christopher go toe-to-toe in a test of their musical knowledge. The result is both weirdly fascinating and undeniably fun.           Kathy Valentine’s new memoir “All I Ever Wanted” (which comes with its own soundtrack), is available now.  Andrew Farriss released an EP last year called “All The Stars Are Mine”.  His newest album comes out in a few weeks. Famous Lost Words is heard in 31 countries worldwide and on radio stations across Canada, including Newstalk 1010 Toronto, CJAD 800 Montreal, 580 CFRA Ottawa, AM 800 CKLW Windsor, Newstalk 1290 London, 610 CKTB St Catharines, CFAX Victoria, AM1150 Kelowna and 91x in Belleville.  If you’d like to promote your business to THOUSANDS of music lovers – think about sponsoring our show.  To find out more – email us – [email protected].
