EP02: Bowie at the British Library, Can, The Stasi, and London's Roundhouse 1972

In episode two of It's All About Vinyl, music journalists and publishers of Electronic Sound Mark Roland and Push talk about David Bowie again, this time because Mark attended an event at the British Library where Jehnny Beth (Savages) and Blixa Bargeld (Einstürzende Neubaten and The Bad Seeds) performed Bowie songs. None of which stopped them from discussing Hawkwind, heinous cat violence meted out to cherished records, Can, the Stasi and one underground synth duo member becoming a television journalist.It's All About Vinyl is a podcast about records and the stories that cling to them. Each episode explores the history, culture and happy accidents behind recorded music, from spinning speeds and forgotten formats to music magazines, charts and the people who shaped how we listen.It’s a chatty, curious look at vinyl and the analogue world around it: part music history, part trivia, part conversation. Whether you’re a serious collector, a casual listener, or someone who’s ever said “I’ve got that on vinyl”, this is a show about why records still matter – and why they always will.Support the podcast!Buy an issue of Electronic Sound, subscribe, or buy a T-shirt, or a record.
