E47 Ready to Go

What happens when you blend the chaotic beauty of "Apocalypse Now" with the haunting melodies of The Doors? Find out as we unravel the magic behind the perfect synchronization of "The End" with the film's opening scene. We also dive into the unforgettable performances by Martin Sheen, Marlon Brando, and Robert Duvall, while younger stars like Harrison Ford and Laurence Fishburne add extra layers of depth. We can't help but discuss Duvall's character's bizarre surfing obsession, which even inspired The Clash's "Charlie Don't Surf." Next, we take a trip through late 1979's music landscape, spotlighting Blondie's "Dreaming," a track inspired by ABBA's "Dancing Queen," which achieved phenomenal success.  The Eagles' first album since "Hotel California," "The Long Run," also gets its due, as we explore the hit single "Heartache Tonight" and the contributions of Bob Seger and JD Souther.Our final segments are all about the camaraderie and challenges of making music. Listen in as Jimmy recounts his time with Space Giants and the creative process behind their album "First Transmission." It's a walk down memory lane.
