The Well Of Sound

Show Notes

Lex calls up shredder extraordinaire Stephen Heath to get a musician's point of view on how Eddie Van Halen changed the game and what sets him apart from other guitar gods. A little about Stephen... He currently plays guitar for LA Takedown and last year was touring guitarist for Weyes Blood. He's also played with Paul Bergmann, Death Valley Girls, DA Stern, and JT Leroy. You mighta seen him on Twin Peaks too. Check him out on Instagram (he does a mean Ernest Borgnine): @heathband

Lost to a mystical dimension, this episode has been recovered, as if by faerie magic. Recorded not long after Dave and Lex's Favorite Bowie Non-Singles episode, this 2+ hour glam-o-rama continues their discussion of diamondy, tricksy pioneers of that special '70s sound... with the arguable king of glam rock: Marc Bolan. Strap in. Let's get it on and bang a gong. It's the T. Rex universe.

Believe it or not, Dave and Lex have never dug deep on David Bowie, on- OR off-air. That changes with this episode. With a slight twist, of course. They won't be talking hits. This episode is strictly about their favorite Bowie songs that were never released as singles. All decades are spanned in this retrospective, and neither host has an idea of what the other has selected. Let's sparkle some stardust and get to listening! Hosted on Acast.
