    With the 50th anniversary of the legendary Woodstock Music Festival, staged on the 15th, 16th, 17th and 18th of August 1969 fast approaching, I'd like to share with you an interview I conducted a few years back with Michael Lang a music concert promotor, producer, artist manager and co-creator of the original Woodstock Festival who recently announced the staging of the 50th anniversary concert.


    I met Michael when he visited Australia with Joe Cocker who he was managing at the time. In our interview he talked about the staging of the original Woodstock festival during which you'll hear some musical highlights and the role he played in rejuvenating Joe Cocker's career.

  • Interview with Rodriguez

    Interview with Rodriguez
    Feb 7 2019

    In this edition of THE MUSIC SHOW I'd like to share with you an interview I conducted in 1981 with American singer/songwriter Rodriguez.

    Born in Detroit, Michigan in 1942, Rodriguez recorded two albums in the early 1970's, "Cold Fact" and "Coming From Reality", neither of them finding an audience in the US. But they did become extremely popular here in Australia, and Rodriguez toured here in 1979 and 1981, appearing at the Tanelorn Festival in NSW alongside Midnight Oil, Split Enz and Men at Work. He virtually disappeared after that, until 2012 when his story was told in the Academy Award-winning documentary "Searching for Sugar Man".
