Ep. 17 - BOB GRUEN (Rock & Roll Photographer)


On this episode of the “It's Only Rock And Roll PODCAST”, we talk with rock photographer BOB GRUEN, about his spectacular career of shooting some of the most instantly-recognizable photographs in music history. His images of Bob Dylan, Blondie, The Sex Pistols, The New York Dolls, John Lennon, and hundreds more have graced album covers, magazines, and posters alike – and he gives a preview of his upcoming autobiography “Right Place, Right Time: The Life Of A Rock & Roll Photographer” which details the backstory behind his classic portraits.


Also, co-host DJ Lauria returns for a wide-ranging conversation touching on everything from the best and worst George Harrison albums, to the adventures of being a public school choral director in the age of Covid, as well as why Wayne Newton is tied with James Watt for evilest man alive!!!

Ep. 16 - JOEY MOLLAND (Badfinger)

 

On this episode of the “It's Only Rock And Roll PODCAST”, the last surviving member of Badfinger, singer/guitarist JOEY MOLLAND, recounts his early years as a budding musician in Liverpool, to being in the first band signed to Apple Records, handpicked by The Beatles themselves. Additionally he details the tragic side of rock & roll, with the band losing their fortune to unscrupulous businessmen, inevitably driving two members to suicide.


This week's co-host, former 94 WHJY disc jockey and host of “The Rock & Roll Roll Root Cellar” Jim Van, joins Don DiMuccio for a lively discussion of terrestrial rock radio, and Jim's recollections of concerts attended like The Stones, Led Zeppelin and Woodstock.
