Show Notes
Welcome to our bi-monthly ENCORE PRESENTATION of classic REVOLUTIONS PER MOVIE episodes from the vault!
Aw....this early Revolutions Per Movie recording, with my fantastic guest KLIPH SCUROLOCK (drummer/multi-instrumentalist for The Flaming Lips, Gruff Rhys of Super Furry Animals), brought out all the excitement as we bonded and talked about one of the greatest unreleased music documentaries ever made about one of the greatest bands ever to walk the Earth: MC5-A True Testimonial. Enjoy!
(Episode 13 originally aired on Dec. 9th 2023).
