What does outrageous look and sound like? The Skyhooks episode.

 In the mid-70's, one of our most outrageous bands burst out of Melbourne ready to shock a relatively conservative Australian society.  With wild costumes & makeup, songs touching on drugs, sexuality and masturbation, and Red’s four-letter word chants, what's not for teenagers to love?  We certainly did! Mick just got a new book covering the life of American guitarist Dick Wagner.  With a career that included some of our favourite artists and music, including Lou Reed, Alice Cooper, Kiss and Peter Gabriel, he thinks this book could fuel a new episode sometime soon. Our Album you Must Hear Before You Die is “Oxygene” by Jean-Michel Jarre.  Very much at one end of our taste spectrum, this album really sorts the “listeners” from the “headbangers.” We know you’ll really enjoy this episode! References:  Steve Hunter & Dick Wagner, “Not Only Women Bleed”, Globite, Countdown, "Michael”, Antoine Fuqua, John Logan, Michael Jackson, Rod Stewart, “1001 Albums You Must Hear before You Die”, Robert Dimery, Skyhooks, Graham “Shirley” Strachan, Greg Macainsh, Red Symons, Freddie Strauks, Bob “Bongo” Starkie, White cowboy suit, “Polaroid in Concert”, concert at Dawes Point, “Living in the 70’s”, “Smut”, "whipping the dripping”, "You Just Like Me Cos I'm Good in Bed", Double Jay, “Ego is not a Dirty Word”, “Shirl’s Neighbourhood”, Our House, The Party Boys, helicopter crash, “Hey Hey, It’s Saturday”, “Red Faces”, APRA  Playlist - all the music and artists we talk about in this episode“Michael” - Trailer  Paris expresses her views on the movie.  Send us a message, so we know what you're thinking!
