Baxie talks to Argentinian singer/ songwriter/ producer/ drummer/ and record executive LAU (Laura Fares). Now residing in Barcelona, LAU is an incredible talent who has seamlessly used her flexibility to transform from a studio musician to releasing what many believe is a modern synth-pop classic on her own record label (Aztec Records). Really interesting stuff! Coming up Monday on Apple Podcast, Spotify, YouTube, and on the Rock102 app! Brought to you by Metro Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram of Chicopee!

Baxie speaks with Steve Smith of The Vapors! While most people remember The Vapors for their classic New Wave hit “Turning Japanese” (1980), their two studio albums were loaded with great songs that deserved equal attention.

Steve talks about the new record, being discovered by Bruce Foxton from The Jam, and about getting back in the road. The Vapors will be coming to the Bosch Theater at the Wang Center in. Boston on August 1st as part of the Lost 80’s Live tour—-which includes Big Country, Flock of Seagulls, General Public, Josie Cotton, Belouis Some, and China Crisis!

Baxie talks with the legendary Brian James. Brian talks about co-founding The Damned—the first British punk band to release a single with "New Rose" (October of 1976). The Damned were also the British Punk band to release an album with "Damned Damned Damned "(February of 1977). They were also the first British Punk band to tour the United States (April of 1977). Brian talks about forming the band and why he left. He also talks about playing with Iggy Pop and about his years with the late Stiv Bators (The Dead Boys) in forming the Lords of the New Church, and the band he formed with Wayne Kramer of the MC5, Stewart Copeland from The Police, Duff McKagan from Guns & Roses, and Clem Burke from Blondie called the Racketeers! Just awesome!!! Listen on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, the Rock102 website, and on the Rock102 app! Brought to you by Metro Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram of Chicopee!

Baxie talks with Cyril Jordan from the legendary Flamin’ Groovies! The Groovies were formed in 1965 in San Francisco and have existed in one form or another ever since. This is a band that was loved by both The Rolling Stones, Elton John, and many others. But at the same time played an enormous role in psychedelia, power pop, garage rock, R&B, and proto-punk. Cyril has seen it all. And the stories?!? Amazing!!! This is an insanely interesting and wild conversation with one of the most enduring legends in music.
