    Love That Album Episode 190 - Favourite Musical Discoveries of 2025
    Dec 23 2025
    Here we are at the end of another year. I won't pretend it was wonderful....part of it was downright horrible to be honest. Buuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuut, two things made me happy – the kindness of some people and wonderful music. Love That Album is all about the music. Welcome to episode 190 of Love That Album. As long time listeners will know, at the end of most years, I like to reach out to some of my music loving and musically articulate friends to chat about what music excited them that year. The emphasis is on music discovery – some of it may be have been released but some of it may be 50 years old. As long as it's new for my guests, that's all that matters. I now present for you the 2025 edition of this tradition. Joining me for this year's discussion are: - Shane Pacey. Shane is part of the LTA furniture at this stage. Discussing music with him is always a treat. He's the front man for both the Bondi Cigars and the Shane Pacey Trio. He's a great musician, sure, but he's a passionate advocate for music history and a great raconteur in that regard. Check out his music at either https://shanepaceytriomusic.bandcamp.com/ or https://bondicigars.com/ - Farmer John (aka John Couture). Farmer John is the host of the superb Vinyl Relics podcast dedicated to the history of (mostly) obscure bands from the late 60s / early 70s rock era. He discusses albums with musicians who didn't always get their day in the sun but should have. Psychedelia, hard rock, pop and folk are his passions. He's also a guitarist and songwriter for a great band called Newport Electric. Get Vinyl Relics wherever you get podcasts, and find his music at https://www.newportelectricmusic.com/ - Brian Nankervis. In Australia, Brian needs no introduction....but for the rest of you, Brian is most famous for being the co host (with Julia Zemiro of Rockwiz) – previously a TV program (which yours truly had 15 minutes of infamy on), now a live touring show. Brian is indeed a rock music brain. He also hosts a weekly show on the ABC in Melbourne with Jacinta Parsons, The Friday Revue. - Jeff Jenkins. Jeff is a music journalist and has been writing a weekly column called Howzat for many many years, as well as writing books about Molly Meldrum and Skyhooks. He also is a regular guest on RRR's The Australian Mood with Neil Rogers. JJ was also the very first guest to be a part of LTA 14 and a half years ago, back when most people didn't even know what a podcast was. You can read his articles at http://www.livinginthelandofoz.com/howzat.html I'm truly grateful for these marvelous musical folk for giving me their time and great conversations. In the off chance you were interested in what some of my favourite discoveries were this year, I have recorded solo segments I play in between my chats with my guests giving 3 albums that gave me pleasure this year – there were many more, but I didn't want this to be a 10 hour show. If you've listened to an episode this year or sent me a correspondence or posted in the Facebook group to have music discussions or recommended LTA or See Hear Podcast to your friends or have been a guest on the show, I offer my gratitude to you.

  • Love That Album Podcast Episode 189 - Interview with Graham 'Buzz' Bidstrup

    Love That Album Podcast Episode 189 - Interview with Graham 'Buzz' Bidstrup
    Oct 20 2025
    Chances are if you have ever been asked “Am I Ever Gonna See Your Face Again?” and you answered “No Way. Get F#$*ed. F#$* Off”, it means: (a) You're a fan of The Angels, (b) You're insensitive, or (c) You're both. Welcome to episode 189 of Love That Album podcast. I'm joined by genuine Australian rock music royalty, drummer Graham “Buzz” Bidstrup....but his career extends to so much more than being drummer and songwriter for The Angels (Angel City in North America) and Ganggajang. He's been an audio engineer, producer, film composer, multi instrumentalist, artist manager, and CEO of the hugely important Thumbs Up Foundation dedicated to Indigenous health, literacy, and numeracy instigated by the late Jimmy Little. If you have any Australian rock albums from the 70s onwards in your collection, chances are very strong Buzz has some connection to those records. He's just released a memoir called “No Secrets: An Oz-Rock Memoir of Music and Mayhem”. I found it a great read because it covers more than stories about performance and band politics (although they're definitely in there). Buzz went to places many other musicians didn't...it wasn't always a pleasant ride, but he's here to tell the tale, and his proudest achievement is....well, you'll have to tune in to find out. My thanks to literary agent, Brendan Fredericks for making the introduction. The book should be available at your local bricks and mortar book shop in Australia, or wherever you order books / ebooks online anywhere on the planet.

  • Love That Album Episode 188 - Blues-a-thon

    Love That Album Episode 188 - Blues-a-thon
    Sep 22 2025
    Blues music means different things to different people. The popular image is of a guitarist playing 12-bar blues of the 1-4-5 variety singing about his or her troubled life. This doesn't take into consideration songs of lust, politics, travel or any subject really that doesn't involve the traditional 12 bar form. The songs can be downcast, yes, but also happy and celebratory. They can have the guitar as the focus instrument, but also the harp (not the type that the Marx brothers employed....but I'd be happy to be proven wrong), the piano, horns....they can be simple, complex, slick or raw. Welcome to episode 188 of Love That Album podcast. Over the last few years, I've welcomed Shane Pacey, leader of the Bondi Cigars and the Shane Pacey Trio to the show many times to talk about records in a variety of styles, but weirdly, we've never spoken about The Blues. I say “weirdly” because blues music is his main focus of recording and live performance. Finally, that is rectified with the latest episode. Shane and I picked 4 classic blues albums to ruminate on. They're all very different in their approach to performance and production, yet they all fit nicely under the blues umbrella. We look at: Willie Dixon - I Am The Blues Albert King – Born Under a Bad Sign Junior Wells – Hoodoo Man Blues Muddy Waters – Hard Again Of course, it wouldn't be an LTA episode if we didn't digress to other blues-related topics....and we're remaining consistent to that ethos. As always, it's a wonderful time in Shane's company. We discuss much, and I learn much. He's a music encyclopedia and a fun conversationalist. So, if you want to know who we believe Junior Wells influenced and was influenced by or what song by Albert King influenced Kiss (probably) or why Marshall Chess supposedly asked Buddy Guy to kick his arse....we have a great show for you. Shane's trio's most recent album is the superb Who Made You King? You can get a copy from https://shanepaceytriomusic.bandcamp.com/album/who-made-you-king. You can also look up what's happening in the world of The Bondi Cigars at https://bondicigars.com/ Oh, and I even received some feedback from listeners about THEIR favourite blues albums. Yay!!!
