Our Thursday Pick...'No Dogs In Space' - Deep Diving 10 Punk Bands That Mattered.

Our pick today is an audio series from 'The Last Podcast' franchise.

I wouldn't even know about it if it wasn't for Bigger E's recommendation and yet, I am now fully hooked.

It's informative, entertaining, and the level of detail is incredible.

Also, the kibbitzing between real life partners Marcus Parks and Carolina Hidalgo really grows on you.

It started with eight hours on the Stooges spread out over four episodes and now they're into the Ramones.

In between there were slightly shorter mini-series on The Damned and Suicide, pictured above.

I had no idea that the two guys in the band that freaked out so many while they simultaneously synergized with Kraftwerk were also, well, nice.  Additionally, in the Suicide series you really get a feeling for the crazed, art-collective, music-mad, human and physically decaying world that was lower Manhattan in pre/proto-punk's earliest 1970's days.

Anyway, this one's for Mr. Beer  'N Hockey because I reckon the drive to and from the sawmill everyday will take up just about one episode.....

****

Now.

The only issue which is that this podcast series is on the evil Spotify empirage.

However, you can also get in through  the still-free RSS-driven LibSys site if you like...

Dig It!
