EP12: I Dyed Kurt Cobain's Hair Green… and other SubPop adventures

from It's All About Vinyl

In this episode, Electronic Sound magazine founders Mark Roland and Push talk about their experiences with the first wave of SubPop bands to hit the UK back in the late 1980s, and Push's various interactions with Kurt Cobain. 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.
