Show Notes
This week, we make up for when comedian/musician/author Dave Hill realized at the end of his episode about The Rolling Stones: Rock and Roll Circus, that he really should have been talking about Slade in Flame instead...so here we go!!!
We also discuss the passing of Ace Frehley, Kiss freaking people out, being able to shred on the guitar, music going off the rails, Ghost, Cheap Trick coming up with their visual idenity and band name after seeing Slade live in the UK, Quiet Riot, the phenomenon of UK Xmas rock singles, Roy Wood's Wizard, Dave Hill getting mistaken for Slade's Dave Hill, how massive the band was leading up to the film, Dr. Feelgood, how Slade In Flame is a bleak drama rather than a Glam spectacular, our love of English Breakfasts and depressing UK lodging, actor Tom Conte, the literal shitting that Slade did on others in their youth, the Slade In Flame soundtrack, the surprising violence and gangster vibes within in the film, the films Scum and Scrubbers, deep fried pizza, the band Slade 2, Slade never looking young & are Slade really glam?
So let's stomp and clap our way to the top of the charts in this episode of Revolutions Per Movie!!!!
