Vinyl Relics | From the Grooves: Peter Kaukonen on Black Kangaroo

EPYSODE 70: Black Kangaroo by Peter Kaukonen. Guest: Peter Kaukonen. Additional commentary by Uncle Herff. This week we dive deep into Black Kangaroo, the cult-classic album by Peter Kaukonen. This epysode features exclusive commentary from Peter himself, as he reflects on the album’s creation, the musical influences behind it, and the stories woven into its tracks. From the recording process to the legacy of the record on vinyl, this conversation offers rare insight for fans of classic albums, vinyl collectors, and listeners discovering it for the first time. I hope you dig Black Kangaroo as much as I do. - Farmer John ===CONNECT & SUPPORT=== Transport yourself into the realm of grooviness by supporting us on Patreon for as little as $2/month using this link --> patreon.com/FarmerJohnMusic Use this link to follow us on Facebook --> https://www.facebook.com/farmerjohnmusic/ Use this link to follow us on Instagram --> https://www.instagram.com/vinylrelics/ Use this link to follow us on TikTok --> https://www.tiktok.com/@vinylrelicspodcast Use this link to follow us on BlueSky --> https://bsky.app/profile/farmerjohnmusic.bsky.social And find us on X @VinylRelicsPod Email me @ ⁠[email protected]⁠ ===LINKS=== Check out Peter's website for album info, merch and more. https://peterkaukonen.com   ===THE MUSIC=== Songs used in this Epysode, in order of appearance. Here's a link to a Spotify playlist for all the tracks featured. *denotes track is not available on Spotify. https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2UBKztnoBIUTXgGVtyhUQ1?si=dfdc2a942d9d4238 FIELDS "Love Is The Word" *Edgar Varise "Platinum" *Chalo Dildar Chalo - song title unknown LITTLE WALTER "My Babe" MUDDY WATERS "Rollin' Stone" THE CARTER FAMILY "Wildwood Flower" SONNY TERRY & BROWNIE McGHEE "Born And Livin' With The Blues" REV.
