REVOLUTIONS PER MOVIE

This week, we are joined by legends Jeff & Steven McDonald of REDD KROSS and Andrew Reich, the director of the new Redd Kross documentary ‘BORN INNOCENT: THE REDD KROSS STORY.' A band very close to my heart and record collection, we discussed so much in this episode, including the Elks Lodge Punk Rock riot and the story of their parents rescuing them from it, Andrew’s gateway into hearing the band for the first time, Jeff’s early hair regiment and the moment the band decided they would cut their hair no more, their shows with Black Flag and The Go-Go's, the brother dynamic and what it's like starting your band at age 11 and 15, convincing their parents to drop them off at punk rock shows and how hard was it to get their parents to agree to be in the movie, how the film took almost 10 years to complete and what made Andrew want to be the one to direct it, the brother dynamic, the magic in how Redd Kross write songs, razzamataz, the cover art of Born Innocent, reclaiming the fun after the traumas of their youth, garbage culture, Beyond The Valley Of The Dolls and discovering Pink Flamingos, how video stores saved our young minds, what it was like acting in the Lovedoll films, Anarchy 6 (The Rutles of hardcore punk), their massive influence on the American underground and what later became grunge, Sub-Pop, working with Geza X and being out of their minds on drugs while recording theTeen Babes from Monsanto LP, the multitude of band members that have gone through the ranks of the band over the years, Bowie being at their first nightclub show, could Redd Kross ever existed anywhere else but L.A., breaking down their tragic show at the legendary CITY GARDENS venue, the night Jeff taunted the Suicidal Tendencies crew, the power and safety of wearing a guitar on stage, who would play Redd Kross in the big screen biopic version of their story and so much more!

This week, we talk to director, comedian, visual artist, writer, and conjurer of groovy worlds, RACHEL LICHTMAN (Programme 4, Easy AM 66), about one of the most surreal episodes of the fabulous variety series The Hollywood Palace!  Our deep dive leads us into one of the strangest and funniest episodes ever of Revolutions Per Movie, where we take apart (and at times destroy ‘with love’) the show—complete with the mind-twisting commercials of the day. We discuss how the host, quadruple artistic threat Sammy Davis Jr., is likely the greatest TV host of all time, Rachel’s deep knowledge of 60’s and 70’s pop culture and how she channels it seamlessly into her own art, the sadness of going to fancy restaurant as a kid with your parents, what a bummer Peter Lawford is in this episode and his vomit inducing version of Aquarius, Sammy Davis Jr. and Mama Cass Elliott killing it while performing together, the various 'mouthwash for lovers' that were being sold at the time of this episode, The Groove Tube, family bands, The 5th Dimension cop show that Rachel dreamed up, The Rolling Stones’ first U.S. TV appearance on The Hollywood Palace where they got roasted by host Dean Martin, The Lawrence Welk Show, the incredible Emmy-winning production design of the show and how they were originally going to put a swimming pool floor into the theater, a very influential jazz musician-themed Kool cigarette commerical, getting a cigar sent to you in the mail, dicking around and the smells of old recording studios, working with Ted Leo & Juliana Hatfield, the Free Love movement, Redd Kross, soul legends The Dells, the Alka Seltzer politcal ad, Mad Men, the end of the variety show era, what the fuck is GrapeBerry Juice, Rosey Greer and his soul song, The John Cassevettes’ styled commercial for Tylenol PM, The Electric Company & Rhoda, & the electrifying conclusion to this whirlwind show full of jaw-dropping strangeness.

Be sure to watch the episode along with us in the show notes below so you can also scream in terror at Peter Lawford’s counterculture attempt at being The Now Thing!!!

This week, we welcome the most rock person to ever appear on the show—the legendary comedian, actor, musician, and shredder DAVE HILL, who picked THE ROLLING STONES ROCK AND ROLL CIRCUS to discuss. We also discuss how Exile On Main Street should be the only album played in restaurants, Dave’s inner fifteen year old, Crab Bucket Syndrome and the “Law Of Jante”, which is more taxing: touring as a musician or as a comedian, what commericals would have played on this British TV show, do the Stones pull off their bad boy/satanic imagery, missing the Jethro Tull boat, the origins of the film and why it remained in the vault for almost 30 years, who else should have been in the show, Led Zeppelin, tattoo nightmares, The Action, the original tour concept with The Small Faces & The Who, the first recorded instance of Ian Anderson standing on one leg, Richard Meltzer, getting scared by album artwork, Gary Panter and Songs For Swinging Larvae, Tommy Iommi subbing in here for Jethro Tull, why Dave Hill thinks Marianne Faithfull steals the film, hanging out with Yoko Ono, Robert De Niro and a toolbox, Charlie Is My Darling and the Irish Rolling Stones riots, and Dave has a last minute regret on this very special episode of Revolutions Per Movie.

Yer blues, John, Yer blues…on this week’s episode of Revolutions Per Movie!!!

This week, we talk to actor, writer, and improviser DAVID PASQUESI (Strangers With Candy, Lodge 49, At Home With Amy Sedaris, Veep, TJ & Dave) about Martin Scorsese’s concert film about THE BAND, THE LAST WALTZ !!!

We discuss David’s connection with The Band and the the sadness inherent in the film, how every member of The Band can be the coolest depending on which way you’re watching, how the film can be tainted by their history, how David discovered and watched the entire evening of music and what’s missing from the film, marveling in how long the night actually lasted and imagining what the turkey dinner tasted like, Scorsese’s secretive approach to intially making the film, how they got all these masters of cinematography to participate, The Staple Singers &Van Morrison, how the first song seen in the film is the last song they performed that night, The Basement Tapes, Chris’s family’s 3 generation admiration of David’s work & how David uses silence in his work, how The Band seemed small town-ish while being one of the biggest rock bands in the world, the debate on who wrote the actual lyrics, how heavily Scorsese storyboarded and prepared for this film, how they had to transform the Filmore to film the concert, the song Stage Fright and if David ever gets that when performing, Joni Mitchell stealing the show, gettting Neil Young’s rare ability to smile and his cocaine nose booger removal techinolgoy, the accidents that happen in this film and why they are magical, the band/gang mentality vs. being a loner, the fear of public humilation, Dylan’s decision at the last minute that he didn’t want to be filmed for the movie and how they got him to change his mind, the endless end of night jams with Ringo and Ron Wood, Scorsese’s flawed Rolling Stones film and more!

So let’s fill up on a turkey, waltz, and dance to The Band on this week’s episode of Revolutions Per Movie!!!

This week, we celebrate Revolutions Per Movie’s 1 year anniversary with filmmaker and actor OWEN KLINE (A24’s Funny Pages), who chose one of the most anticipated music films to discuss on the podcast, THE WHO’S TOMMY. 

We discuss the chicken/egg of the movie vs. the lp, the baked bean mythology, Ken Russell’s pre-filmmaking history from being a ballet dancer to dodging the war, Russell’s early BBC Composer films, Richard Lester and Lindsay Anderson, Robert Crumb and Fantagraphics Books, being a cultural dinosaur, the concept of selling out, the precision of the film that betrays its midnight movie status, Who’s Next, how the Tommy LP kept The Who from breaking up, the ARP synth, the use of repetition in both the LP and the movie, transgressive music, how and why Townshend kept changing the shape of the story of Tommy, the aborted projects LIFEHOUSE & THE ANGELS that used elements to make the film Tommy, could we pick up the concept album plot before seeing the movie (and even after seeing it!), Ann-Margret’s Oscar-nominated performance, the amount of sweat that appears on actors in the film, the surprising debut acting turn of Roger Daltrey, the UK white boy blues movement, Russell’s choice of having the actor sing, including Jack Nicholson’s strange turn, Keith Moon’s approach to Uncle Ernie, Chris’s concept double album Colonel Jeffrey Pumpernickel, Tina Turner’s incredible performance as the acid queen and how Mick Jagger was in talks to do the role instead, does Elton John and Tina turner steal the film, the strange final 1/3 of the film, Dauhgltrey’s perfect cartwheels, acting through song and so much more!

We are also joined by special guest Barry Winch, who starred in TOMMY as ‘Young Tommy’!!! He illuminates us both about being a child on the set of the strange film, what it was like working with Ken Russell, Ann-Margret & Oliver Reed, how they got honest performances out of him as a child actor, how The Who protested going to the premiere unless he was invited (since he was underage), how Ken Russell himself accidentally cast him, his family’s acting history, playing hide and seek with Oliver Reed, what it felt like being on the set of that movie, what the Tommy props from the film have been auctioned at, why he wasn’t allowed to wander around the set, his favorite memories and some moments of being afraid as well.

All this and more as we celebrate the one year anniversary of REVOLUTIONS PER MOVIE!!!

This week, we talk to comedian/actor Andy Kindler (Bob's Burgers, Late Night w/ David Letterman, Maron, Everybody Loves Raymond) & Mike Lisk (executive producer of The Best Show w/ Tom Scharpling and host of Egg Foo What?!) about a documentary whose subject matter is dear to both of their hearts (yet full of confusion and mystery for host Chris Slusarenko), The Grateful Dead documentary series, LONG STRANGE TRIP. These two have a history with each other, and out of the gate, an old Zappa argument and apology appear out of nowhere, and then it’s off to the races. We discussed whether Bob Weir is essential to the band, the stage banter of the Grateful Dead, Andy’s 70s rock band TransFusion, their viewpoints on Pigpen—the original rapper, which of the two drummers had the goods, Mountain Dew vs. Morning Dew, Andy’s LSD induced concert going-ons and his naked prog-rock band stories, Mike’s experience of almost being trampled at a Grateful Dead concert, pocket pool advice from the band, Tom Scharpling, Robert Hunter’s lyrics, Donna & Keith, Mike meeting Garcia as a teenager, sneaking drugs into concerts, digitally erasing crowd nudity from concert footage, why they think they are the quintessential American band, The Velvet Underground and the dissonance of the Grateful Dead, Disco Dead, Marvin Gaye, can you be a cynic and give yourself over to the band, losing punk rock friends to the Dead, Altamont, tape trading, Europe ’72, the sadness in the Jerry Garcia story, Hot Tuna, The Warlocks, Dead & Co., how the documentary is critical of a portion of their fan base, the Dead telling their fans to stop being assholes, Mickey Finn’s father ripping the band off, the Phil Zone and Mike gives us a crash course on the essential shows and recordings to listen to.

So let’s time your trip perfectly on this very funny yet heartfelt episode of Revolutions Per Movie.

This week, we talked to musician and vital member of the late 70s/early 80s Portland Punk Scene, KT Kincaid, who picked the incredible doc, THE SLITS HERE TO BE HEARD. We discussed her and her sister’s importance in the creation of the punk scene, their band NEO BOYS (whose recordings were reissued on K Records), discovering Bowie, seeing punkers before hearing punk, the rarity of finding punk records, picking the bass guitar over other instruments, nobody sounding like The Slits & the genius of Viv Albertine’s guitar playing, being in a band with your sister, getting 50 people to come to a show, the video for ‘Earthbeat’, The Flowers Of Romance, the punk collective mindset & loyalties in the punk scene, opening for Television, practicing non-stop in your first band & taking it so seriously, pooling money to buy records, the violence towards the early punk scene, the gang mentality of being in a band, the magic of chance meetings, getting pissed at the Guardian’s review of this documentary, and Chris reads the minutes from one of the Portland punk collective’s meetings from the late 70s.

Nothing typical here as we dive into this week’s episode of Revolutions Per Movie!

This week, I’m joined by JASON P. WOODBURY (of Aquarium Drunkard) and filmmakers BRIAN LINDSTROM & ANDY BROWN to discuss their incredible new film LOST ANGEL: THE GENIUS OF JUDEE SILL. We talked about Judee Sill’s gnostic relationship to her music and how she backed it up in her lifestyle, what our introductions to her music were like, Sill’s disdain of being lumped in with Christian Rock & opening for rock bands, her influence on Andy Partridge of XTC, how the filmmakers shaped the film over the past ten years, Tooth & Nail Records, the mythologizing of a subject’s life in documentary filmmaking, Asylum Records and her ups and downs with David Geffen, Some Kind Of Monster, Sill’s vulnerability and ego in her diary writings and drawings, how they chose to animate Sill’s artwork and found her voice, Sill’s influence on a new generation of musicians, her iconic Old Grey Whistle Test performance of “The Kiss,” how the film addresses childhood trauma, addiction, and resilience, what parts of Sill’s life didn’t fit into the film, and the power of Alice Coltrane, Sun Ra, Guided By Voices & SST Records, 

So join us as we talk about one of the greatest songwriters to ever be part of the cosmos, Judee Sill, on this week’s Revolutions Per Movie.

This week we talked to the legendary musician Bob Bert of Sonic Youth, Pussy Galore, Chrome Cranks, Lydia Lunch Retrovirus & Bewitched, who picked the equally legendary Danny Fields documentary, Danny Says, to discuss. We talk about Danny’s trials with the bands he loved and discovered (including The Stooges, MC5, Jonathan Richman & The Ramones); the notion of chance meetings in art; Danny breaking the news of John Lennon saying ‘The Beatles are bigger than Jesus Christ’ and the aftermath he created for them; changing a guitar string without stopping playing a song; 16 Magazine; Bob’s early shows seeing Suicide, Wayne County, Patti Smith, New York Dolls & Television; the greatness of Dead Moon & The Scientists; WFMU; shoplifting MC5 records; the Super 8mm punk document Blank Generation; how he joined both Sonic Youth & Pussy Galore; Rock Scene magazine, the genesis of the Pussy Galore drum set he built and how it hurts to play it, his process with publishing BB Gun Magazine, doing drugs and seeing Pink Floyd, unsung NYC band heroes, planning out your whole week around rock shows, Max’s Kansas City and why we haven’t gotten a Jonathan Richman documentary yet!

This week, we talked to UK journalist, author & manager Ralph Moore, who chose the documentary about Amy Winehouse, AMY, to discuss. We talk about the line you have to walk managing artists, Amy’s parent’s new documentary Reclaiming Amy, The Frank album, Mark Ronson, the Coventry Music scene, how the film is one of the best representations of what it is like to be hounded by the paparazzi and what has changed with the UK press since Amy’s life, how they acquired the footage in the film, seeing Amy Winehouse live, how the film is like a home movie where Amy is looking you in the eyes, how the film does not romanticize Amy’s life or her addictions, the trials of being a public figure, aligning the morals of the artist with the art, Radiohead, the pressures of being a true icon, the early adopters of Nirvana and Oasis, seeing a band you love on the cusp of breaking through, the UK music press and how it has changed over the years, can you manage an artist and still be a friend, art and commerce, Amy and Tony Bennett’s moment together in the film and so much more. 

So join us on this week's Revolutions Per Movie as we discuss one of the most personal looks at an artist ever made.

My guest this week is Jim Gavin (the creator of AMC’s incredible series Lodge 49 and author of Middle Men), who chose to discuss the Jawbreaker documentary Don’t Break Down. We talk about the band’s grip on their fans, the eventual backlash against Jawbreaker, lyrics that destroy you, the Masonic world and the genesis of Lodge 49, East Coast punk vs. West Coast punk, Lilies/Broadcast/Stereolab and other sonic rabbit holes, creating imaginary mentors, the legendary Jabberjaw/L.A. scene, creating your own mythology about a band, obsessing over Blake’s lyrics, the nature of imploding bands, the concept of selling out and Nirvana’s success, music as time travel, looking for a specific sound and hiring a private detective to find a specific song.

So please don't turn your back towards the band on this week's Revolutions Per Movie!!!

This week, we talked to the actor (House Of The Dragons, 24 Hour Party People, The World’s End), musician (Riding The Low), writer/director (Tyrannosaur, Journeyman) Paddy Considine, about his all-time favorite band (in any universe), Guided By Voices and the documentary Watch Me Jumpstart.  We discuss these mythical legends of Dayton, what it was like for Chris being in the band and working with Pollard, Pollard’s incredible work ethic and output, Paddy’s trip from the UK to visit Ohio for the first time and taking a GBV/Bob Pollard tour of Dayton, the eureka moment of understanding the band, wrapping your mind around Bob's lyrics, the early confusion of why, how and who was recording this music, being under-appreciated by the establishment, GBV's influence on Paddy's acting writing & music, Pollard's legendary mix-tapes, turning people onto the band, the obsession of collecting Pollard's entire discography, beer, basements and talking to Bono about Guided By Voices.

So, disarm the settlers, and let’s go deep into the world of Guided By Voices on this episode of Revolutions Per Movie.

This week, we talk to Stuart Swezey & Bruce Licher, who produced and worked on the Desolation Center series of shows that took bands like minutemen, Swans, Redd Kross, Meat Puppets, Sonic Youth, and Einsturzende Neubauten and put them in locations such as the Mojave Desert as a reaction to the omnipresent police violence against punk rock kids.  We talked about the Desolation Center documentary that Swezey directed, the iconic visuals that Licher created for the events, having the legendary artist Chris Burden as your teacher, the healing power of Throbbing Gristle, how to source school buses to take punk rockers to the desert, fake ids, Savage Republic, Glenn Branca and the No New York LP, Redd Kross getting lost in the desert, violence coming from rednecks, the notion of selling out and not repeating oneself, the impact of D. Boon on the scene, Survival Research Laboratories, Lydia Lunch, being naive, Action News, the eventual change in the 80s music underground, psychedelics, early punk clubs like The Masque and Brave Dog, NEA grants for industrial noise music events, and we’re also joined by surprise guests, ML Compton and Skip King who are featured in the documentary and describe what it was like being a passenger into the unknown.

This week, we talked to Jon Raymond (author of Denial, Freebird; screenwriter of Old Joy, First Cow & Showing Up w/ Kelly Reichardt, Mildred Pierce w/ Todd Haynes) about The Source Family documentary, which follows the rock n’ roll hippie California cult of the same name. We also talk about Jon’s work with Kelly Reichardt, why so many cult leaders also want to be rock n’ roll stars, the legacy and legitimacy of Yahowa 13’s music recordings & how The Source Family might have been The Monkees of the California cult scene.

So get your stars aligned and your multidimensional soup ready for this week’s episode of Revolutions Per Movie.

This week, we talked to Carlos Grasso—the Producer & Writer for the monumental MTV show ‘IRS’s The Cutting Edge’ & art director for IRS Records. We talked about his process creating iconic LP covers for R.E.M., The Cramps, Wall Of Voodoo & The Buzzcocks, working with The Cutting Edge directors Jonathan Dayton & Valerie Faris (who went on to direct ‘Little Miss Sunshine’ & ‘Mr. Show’), filming everyone from Alex Chilton to Daniel Johnston, why the archives of the show are so elusive & I even read Carlos a letter that he wrote back to me when I wrote to the record label!

So call it the new wave, the old wave, or the current wave, but come swing with us on this latest episode of Revolutions Per Movie!

This week, we discuss a music film that my guest, Andy Zax (a Grammy-nominated archivist and the Music Geek on Comedy Central’s ‘Beat The Geeks’), begs us NOT to watch--the 1970 psychedelic romp ‘THE PHYNX.’ We take a deep dive into the film’s history, mystique, and weirdo cast (James Brown, Colonel Sanders, Dick Clark, Richard Pryor), as well as a fascinating look at Zax’s time at Warner Brothers Records & on ‘Beat The Geeks’. We also discuss liner notes legend & the screenwriter of The Phynx Stan Cornyn, the fascinating pain that this movie brings to any viewer, Lieber and Stoller’s soundtrack, Phil Spector parodies, the star power ranking of UltraViolet, a 400 Vox Guitar army, album artwork, Van Dyke Parks, Joni Mitchell, bootleg VHS tapes, fake band album artwork, sense memories from music, promotional items from movies, writing about psychedelia without knowing psychedelics, the difference between the original script and the finished movie (which included scenes with Allen Ginsberg & Timothy Leary), and Chris tries to beat ‘The Geek’!

So PLEASE DO NOT WATCH THIS FILM EVER (or do you?) on this week’s episode of Revolutions Per Movie.

This week, we talk to the two hosts of the fictional classic rock station comedy podcast, Jason Gore & Geoff Garlock of 108.9 The Hawk, about their music film pick, The Who's 'The Kids Are Alright.'  We argue over what is the greatest Who period of all time, how the band's inner tensions helped make them even greater, how a first-time director/superfan pulled off this film, Townshend's use of alienation & enlightenment through his interviews, Zeppelin vs. Who, being stuck at midnight movie screenings, Jason's radio broadcasting past on an actual classic rock station in the South, and trying to win over Geoff who had never seen this movie until now! So let's blow up a drumset on this week's Revolutions Per Movie!

This week, we talk to indie pop dance legend and Kill Rock Stars recording artist, Logan Lynn, who picked the extremely intense music narrative film, Vox Lux, to discuss. We discussed the realities and tropes of music films, Lynn’s early years as a teenager on a major label, the lack of protection for young artists within creative industries, addressing addiction and trauma in your art, the notion of selling out, backstage rituals, making fun of ‘The Devil’, the Swedish Pop Mafia, how music gets taken out of context, whether or not Natalie Portman a convincing pop icon in the movie and so much more.

So get ready to dance through the pain on this week’s Revolutions Per Movie.

This week, we present the first of our two-part episode with filmmaker, musician, and photographer DAVE MARKEY (‘1991: The Year Punk Broke,' ‘Lovedolls Superstar,’ Painted Willie on SST records) about 'the change our lives forever' videotape for both of us: DEVO’s ‘The Men Who Make The Music.’   We discuss how Devo has been the most influential influence on our life and creative work, getting picked on for liking DEVO and pushing back, Neil Young working with the band, the proper way to say Boojie Boy, Devo’s video director (Chuck Statler) singular style and use of non-actors, the concept of selling out, early MTV, seeing Devo live, Dr. Demento & SNL, Devo being championed as a Los Angeles band, dealing with Whip It as a hit song, Dave’s early work as a teenage filmmaker, Devo’s evolution of songwriting, how sexy Mark Mothersbaugh is, CLUB DEVO, John Lydon almost joining Devo, bands jumping on the New Wave bandwagon and how the Devo’s body of work could be absolutely frightening.  

So take your hotsy-totsy swinger, put them under pressure, and watch them fall apart on this week’s Revolutions Per Movie.

Hello everyone…we recorded a special episode of Coffee With Krummenacher about Victor’s times and friendship with Mojo Nixon.  We discuss what it was like being on the road when Mojo was opening for Victor's band Camper Van Beethoven, making split flexi-discs and doing inspired photo shoots together, Mojo and Camper playing The Filmmore together, taking mushrooms and long nights with the man, piss-filled cereal bowls, Mojo’s sweet shamanistic outlook on life, living an authentic life, Mojo’s Camper Van Beethoven cover version, and how Mojo was going to be on the Revolutions Per Movie podcast in a few weeks to talk about a Replacements documentary that he saw in his head that didn’t exist (yet) and the excited email he sent me about his ideas.  It’s a wild and beautiful tribute to a singular, weirdo force that is no longer with us.

Normally, ‘Coffee With Krummenacher’ is just one of the exclusive bonus shows we have over at the Revolutions Per Movie Patreon (a podcast where my guests talk about their favorite music documentaries or music narrative films), but I thought we should make this episode available to everyone.  If you’ve enjoyed what you’ve heard, please consider supporting what we do over at patreon.com/revolutionspermovie.

We also discuss John’s new upcoming series, ‘Cancelation Island,' the Stones being canceled themselves, the punk rock influence of Little Richard on the band, the backstory behind why the free concert really happened, Jagger & Bowie as the aristocrats of rock, the musical beauty and ramshackle imperfections within the Stones, the power of Tina Turner, rock n' roll skepticism, which rock stars were the pure avatars of id, the documentary influence & legacy of the Mayles Brothers (and how they got the trust of their subjects), The Stones impressive lineage with legendary film directors, several newer Altamont films that we dug up, John’s live Cassette Roulette shows and the sonic influences throughout his life on his art, getting past our Mick Jagger hang-ups, dealing with stage crashers and a look at the end of the hippie era.

This week, we talk to Gary Jarman of the UK band The Cribs, who chose a film so close to his (and his brother’s) heart, NIRVANA LIVE! TONIGHT! SOLD OUT!  We discussed the massive influence this VHS tape had on the Jarman family and their future in rock, from their decision not to play encores to their affinity for putting noise into their melodies. We also discuss what it was like to come from such a small town where they had never seen anything on a punk level before, the concept of selling out, writing music or lyrics first, saving up stationary store coupons to buy Nirvana cassettes, Britpop, opening for Nirvana the day their album went gold, sabotaging your own live show, dealing with tabloids and the British music press, fantasizing about destroying the Top Of The Pops studio, not playing encores & the endless search for “the next Nirvana.”

So come dive into the drum set on this episode of Revolutions Per Movie!

This week we talked to UK music scribe Camilla Aisa (Shindig, Rock Collector) about the 2020 music documentary ‘Sisters With Transitors.’  We discuss how 2 seconds of a Suzanne Ciani composition might be one of the most perfect pieces of music of all time, pop thievery vs. true innovators, music that can transform your life, and Camilla’s dissertation on the garage/psych music scenes of the Pacific NW. 

So, let’s pull some wires and turn the dial as we discuss one of the greatest music documentaries of all time.

This week, we talked to the author Annie Zaleski (‘Duran Duran: Rio’ for the 33 1/3 music book series) about the music video spectacles of Duran Duran. We discuss their humble, low-budget beginnings, whether the band’s good looks help or hinder them, why the director of ‘Highlander’ ended up their visual guru & Annie doubles down on the idea that the band is more of a gothic art band than you could ever imagine. 

So, pull up the collar on your favorite tailored jacket as we dive deep into the globe-trotting visual world of Duran Duran’s music videos on this week’s episode of Revolutions Per Movie.

This week, we talk to L.A.-based musician and podcast producer Devon Bryant, maybe the most obsessed fan of their chosen subject we’ve had on the show to date. We discuss the 1998 Robyn Hitchcock performance film Storefront Hitchcock and how director Jonathan Demme honored the weirdness that is a Robyn performance. Along the way, we talk about the journey to loving music you couldn’t stand on first listen, the success and failure rate of stage banter, the daunting nature of massive discographies, and if we are lyrics first people or music first people.

So, as Robyn says, ‘yip yip yip’ as we push deep into the mind of Storefront Hitchcock.

DAVID WEISSMAN:

This week, we talked to David Weissman (the co-director of ‘The Cockettes’ & ‘We Were Here’) about the amazing documentary ‘The Cockettes’—documenting the trailblazing, avant-garde drag & music ensemble from the late 60s.  We discussed the origin stories of The Cockettes, John Waters’ passion for the troupe and his involvement with the documentary, the difference in the ways the 60s played out for The East Coast vs. The West Coast, the emerging SF punk scene & brushing your teeth with drugs.

So let down your hair and put on a show with this week's episode of Revolutions Per Movie!!!

This week, we talk to L.A. comedian & filmmaker Max Beasley, who chose Todd Haynes' glam rock-driven narrative film ‘Velvet Goldmine.’ We discuss the ambitious and experimental nature of the film, how hard it is to adapt fictional characters from real-life musical legends, why this film found an audience long after its theatrical run, and how it ended up having one of the biggest impacts on Max’s life and art.

So as Bowie once sang ‘Come on, come on, we’ve really got a good thing going’ on this week’s episode of Revolutions Per Movie.

This week, we talked to musician Andrew Rieger (Elf Power, Elephant 6 Recording Co.) about the Ringo Starr directed film ‘Marc Bolan: Born To Boogie.’ We discussed our long-time obsession with all things Bolan, if Ringo is a good movie director, the missing charisma of certain guitar players, and the visual & filmic sensibilities of the artists that make up the new doc, ‘The Elephant 6 Recording Co.’

Some people like to rock…some people like to roll on this week’s episode of Revolutions Per Movie.

VERA DREW:

This week, we talked about Pink Floyd: The Wall with actor/director/writer Vera Drew (The People’s Joker, Tim & Eric, Sasha Baron Cohen’s ‘Who Is America?’).  We discussed how both the album and the film ended up being one of her biggest inspirations in making her film, how Pink Floyd has influenced her life immensely (including her name change), the battle over the release of The People’s Joker, copyright law and fair use, the band Negativland, working with child actors, as well as her time working with Tim & Eric.

This haunted Halloween week, we talk to the L.A.-based musician Chaki, who is also the legendary host of The Hollywood Punk Rock Graveyard Tour. We discussed the recent music documentary, This Is Gwar, and talked about how the two main creators of the band never buried the hatchet, the arrest of Oderus and censorship in music, the Gwar aesthetic and mythos, and what it’s like to discover your new favorite band while watching Jerry Springer.

So does the cursed offspring Gor Gor doth dane to spoil our moment of triumph and glory? Find out on this week’s episode of Revolutions Per Movie.

This week, we talk to the legendary UK author & musician Paul Hanley (The Fall, House of All & ‘Leave The Capital’). He picked the divisive Clash film ‘Rude Boy’ to discuss at length. Along the way, we discuss lead ‘actor’ Ray Gange’s perfect aloofness and failure as a roadie, the notion of punk rock musicians as actors, The Clash’s repudiation of the film, and whether or not The Fall’s Mark E. Smith gave The Clash a pass.

On a side note…the original recording of this conversation was corrupted, so we had to use the backup. We apologize for any crunchiness, but maybe you could think of this episode as our ‘Are You Are Missing Winner’ of the series!

So let’s salute the new wave and hope nobody escapes on this week’s episode of Revolutions Per Movie.

This week, we talked to actor/writer/musician Julie Klausner (Hulu’s ‘Difficult People, Double Threat Podcast, ‘I Don’t Care About Your Band’) about Nancy Sinatra’s 1967 TV Special ‘Movin’ With Nancy.’ We obsess over Nancy’s dedication to the art of her lip-syncs, the magic of her partnership with Lee Hazlewood, how the special is also an unintentional horror movie & why Ringo Starr, Throbbing Gristle & Davy Jones would have been perfect duet partners with Nancy.

So pour yourself a goblet of that mad, mad, mad, mad cola and take the passenger seat straight into heaven on this week’s episode of Revolutions Per Movie.

This week, we talked to musician Nick Aguilar, who chose the documentary film “We Jam Econo,” which focused on the legendary punk band The Minutemen. Since Nick has performed and toured with The Minutemen’s Mike Watt, he has excellent insight into the world of the LA punk rock scene, SST records, growing up in San Pedro, and, of course, being in the van with the legend that is Mike Watt.

So, fellow corndogs, get in and let’s mersh out about The Minutemen and “we Jam Econo” on this episode of Revolutions Per Movie.

In celebration of the 40th anniversary & theatrical re-issue of TALKING HEADS' classic concert film, ‘Stop Making Sense’, we discussed the film with EVA WALKER (Sub-Pop recording artist The Black Tones, KEXP’s Early show). We talked about getting to see the original concert tour in person, how the smallest stage moves can create the biggest waves, why Taking Heads initially creeped Eva out, the follies of being a young music snob, Eva working with Stop Making Sense performer Ednah Holt & how Tina Weymouth is the fucking coolest. 

So, all you slippery people, prepare to get your knees wobbling back and forth as we dive into this week’s Revolutions Per Movie.

Hello and welcome to Revolutions Per Movie, a podcast about music documentaries, music-based fiction films, and the art of the music video.

I’m your host, Chris Slusarenko— a musician who has been in bands such as Eyelids & Guided By Voices and was once the owner of an independent video store in Portland, Oregon, for over 22 years.

This week, we talk to Frontier Records founder Lisa Fancher, who chose the 1983 American hardcore documentary “Another State Of Mind” to dig into. We also discuss how Lisa got involved in the ‘70s punk scene, the police violence of the L.A. Punk riots, the innocence of a band booking a U.S. tour, why you don’t put Minor Threat footage in your own documentary, and getting booted in the head from stage divers.

So come meet Monk and learn the correct way to pogo on this episode of Revolutions Per Movie.

Hello and welcome to Revolutions Per Movie, a podcast about music documentaries, music-based fiction films, and the art of the music video.

I’m your host, Chris Slusarenko— a musician who has been in bands such as Eyelids & Guided By Voices and was once the owner of an independent video store in Portland, Oregon, for over 22 years.

For our inaugural episode, we talk with author/musician Ryan H. Walsh, who chose the Brian Jonestown Massacre/Dandy Warhols documentary film “Dig!” to discuss. We are also joined later by a surprise guest from the Brian Jonestown Massacre camp, Travis Snyder, who was the band’s tour manager for almost 20 years. We talk about how the film was initially commissioned to be a reality series by MTV, how bands in the 90s navigated the major label-feeding frenzy, the unhealthy lifestyle of band life, and how this documentary really did not tell the whole truth.

So listen in as we discuss the revolution that never happened on this episode, Revolutions Per Movie.
