The RBP PodcastIn the new episode of our podcast, the legendary Paul Morley joins us to talk about his native Manchester, Joy Division and his epic new biography of Factory Records founder Tony Wilson.Paul recounts his early pop epiphanies and discovery of the UK’s music press, culminating in the one & only issue of his 1976 fanzine Out There — not to mention his first reviews for the NME in 1976. The conversation then turns to “Anthony H.” Wilson and the formation of Factory, taking in Paul’s championing of Joy Division before leading into a discussion of Martin Aston’s 1986 audio interview with New Order’s Bernard Sumner and Stephen Morris.From there we consider the week’s featured act Faust, spinning off from pieces about the German enigmas by Ian MacDonald, Andy Gill and David Stubbs, and prompting general thoughts on “Krautrock” from both guest and hosts. After saying goodbye to chief Chieftain Paddy Moloney, and to three veteran RBP writers on soul and R&B (Pete Grendysa, Bob Fisher and Roger St. Pierre), Mark leads us through his personal favourites among the 100+ articles added to the RBP library over the past fortnight, including pieces about the Stones’ pad in Edith Grove, Lorraine Ellison’s volcanic single ‘Stay With Me’ and Charlie Watts on drummers & drumming. Finally, Jasper talks us out with his thoughts on pieces about Primal Scream’s 2000 XTRMNTR and John Sinclair taking The Wire’s “Invisible Jukebox” text in 2003. -- source link
