Alain Johannes is back, for a full episode. Which is crazy, as it has been four years since the last one. He's just completed a bunch of touring with bands he recorded acting as his backing band all all around the world. So how has recording music changed for Alain over the years? Let's find out together. Lots of great stories about Mark Lanegan and the creative process with him, Desert Sessions, PJ Harvey, Mick Harvey, Queens of the Stone Age. Jamming with John Paul Jones and Them Crooked Vultures. How and why Eleven ended up being the kind of "true heads know" band that it was, upcoming solo shows and the wellspring that is the art of creation.
