70. The Smithereens: Interview with Dennis Diken

This week we talk to Smithereens Drummer Dennis Diken. The Smithereens were some of the early influences for the Grunge and Alt rock movement with hits like Blood & Roses, Only a Memory and A Girl Like you. Kurt Cobain listed them as one of his biggest inspirations and Dennis was a wealth of musical knowledge having worked with the likes of Ronnie Specter and Joey Ramone. It was an amazing conversation and we think you’ll enjoy it! https://www.officialsmithereens.com/ https://wfmu.org/playlists/DI You need to check out our Sponsor www.BustedTees.com   At checkout use code JASON25945 To receive a fat discount Please subscribe to our upcoming YouTube https://youtu.be/ijsK6sueZUQ Follow us Online! www.TheMixTapePod.com Twitter-  Mix_Tape_Pod Facebook- Tapewroms!
