Harold Bronson Reconnects With His Savage Young Winos

from The (Mostly) 80s Music Podcast: What Difference Does It Make? · host Dave Sloan and Holly Cantos - 80s Music Podcast

Harold Bronson may be best known as one of the co-founders of Rhino Records, but when he was a student at UCLA, he was in a band called Mogan David And His Winos. The band consisted of future New York Times best-selling author Jonathan Kellerman, future Columbia Records Head Of Promotions (and friend of the podcast) Paul Rappaport, music journalist Mark Leviton, as well as fellow Rhino co-conspirator Richard Foos.  The band made one album, fusing all their influences. The result came out in 1973 and was entitled Savage Young Winos. It became a cult classic, but has been out of print since 1976. Enter Liberation Hall Music, which has re-released the album with additional demos, live recordings from that period, and two tracks from a Winos' reunion session in 1993.  Harold Bronson has graciously joined the podcast to share just a few of the stories he's accumulated over the years.
