GUEST: Blonde On Blonde vocalist/guitarist Dave Thomas.
In this epysode, we dive into this Welsh band's 2nd album, Rebirth. Dave Thomas provides detailed background information of the band's formation, their time on the BBC, touring with major acts, their 1969 Isle of Wight performance and the recording of their third and final album when they knew it would be their last. We also discuss Dave's resurgence, decades later ("I signed my second recording contract at the tender age of 70").
Blonde On Blonde mixed folk, psychedelia, blues-rock and prog all into a unique style all their own.
It's a great story of a great band and album.
I hope you dig "Rebirth" as much as I do.
