Baxie talks to drummer Greg Langston. This is an unbelievable story about Greg’s time with the Sea Hags. This was a band that had been set to become “The Next Guns n Roses”. But due to a series of unfortunate circumstances and bad decisions the band began to implode just before they had a chance to record their one and only studio album. This was a band that had everything going their way until it suddenly didn’t. In fact, Greg talks about the Sea Hags even having their early demos produced by Kirk Hammet from Metallica and the great Siliva Masse (Johnny Cash, Tool, RHCP). Greg talks about that, his previous work with both No Alternative and Tuxedo Moon, getting fired from the band, and about the release of a previously unavailable live recording of the Sea Hags which has just been released on Liberation Hall records (“Dead & Gone”). Just an amazing and heartbreaking story of a band that missed it by THAT much! Listen wherever you find podcasts and on the Rock102 app! Brought to you by Metro Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram of Chicopee.

Baxie talks to producer/multi-instrumentalist Phil Galloni. After years of running his own studio in Los Angeles and producing a number of notable projects, Phil has just released his first full length of his own music as Waverly Drive. Make no mistake. This is far more than just some pet side project. Phil is a legitimate talent whose new album “Decadence” is an exceptional first effort that’s definitely worth checking out!

Baxie talks to the former editor of Alternative Press, Jason Pettigrew. Jason has just published an excellent in-depth look at Ministry’s 1988 classic album "The Land of Rape and Honey". The book, which is a part of the 33 1/3 album series, dives into the amazing story of Ministry’s Al Jorgensen and his defiant reluctance of becoming an aggressively groomed major label synth-popstar. Instead, he would go on to release not only one of the important albums of the 1980's but one of the influential recordings in Industrial music history. This is one of the great stories in music history! Listen on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, and on the Rock102 app! Brought to you by Metro Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram of Chicopee!

Baxie welcomes back NY Times bestselling biographer Bill Janovitz! Bill is about to release his next book on September 25th “The Cars: Let the Stories Be Told”. His previous biography about the late Leon Russell was one of the best Rock biographies that I had read in years. The new book is every bit as great! On top that, Bill is also the lead singer and guitarist for the Massachusetts-based band Buffalo Tom! They’ll be at the Please Come to Boston Festival in November! Just a great conversation!

Baxie talks to legendary drummer Bruce Smith. Since 1979, Bruce has played with the insanely influential post-punk band The Pop Group, Public Image Ltd. with John Lydon, and The Slits. He’s also played with Terrance Trent Darby, The The, and Bjork as well! Bruce is currently involved with Ashes and Diamonds—the incredible Super Group with Daniel Ash from Bauhaus, Tones on Tail, and Love and Rockets, and Sade’s bass player Paul Denman. After seven years together and loads of interruptions and restarts, their debut album “Ashes and Diamonds and Forever” is finally getting its long overdue release (10/31/25). The final result is a record that Bruce calls “the most satisfying” of his career! Just brilliant!

Baxie talks to bass player Craig Fort from the Nebraska metal band Leafblower! After spending the last eight years slowing releasing demos and EP's, Leafblower has finally released their debut album--"Burn Cruise"! And it absolutely CRUSHES!!! Craigs talks about the growing music scene in their hometown of Omaha (It ain't all just football and corn fields, folks!), their earlier releases, and about how the band has finally gotten to this point in their career!

Baxie talks Kula Shaker frontman Crispian Mills! For nearly thirty years Crispian and Kula Shaker have been making music that seamlessly blends incredible pop songs with both psychedelia and the spiritual culture of India. The result of which vaulted the band to release one of the fastest selling debut albums in British history! With hits like "Tattva", "Hey Dude", "Gonvinda", and their amazing version of "Hush", their first album "K" was a massive platinum selling record. Today the original lineup of Kule Shaker is back and releasing new music--with two new singles out this summer. In fact, they're working on a new album that could be released later this year or early next year. Crispian talks about that, their unexpected reunion, the spiritual nature of the band, being raised in show business family, and about the British music press.
