Love That Album: The Compilation Edition Episode 29 - Searchin for That Brill Building sound
















Welcome to Episode 29 of Love That Album: The Compilation Edition.

This time around Eric goes freeform once again to talk about... well Sweden... but first he's got some  chatter about the late 50s early 60s Brill Building Sound.. a collection of recordings originating in from the New York City center of the music publishing world... acts like Bobby Darin, Ben E King, a host of Girl Groups, The Shangri Las and Paul Revere and the Raiders worked with the like of Phil Specter and created music that has lasted for generations...

….and then it's back to Sweden.. this time to talk about the 65 to 68 Garage Rock scene where Swedish youth took their shot at being the Beatles or the Stones and maybe, just maybe laid the ground work for the Swedish music scene to come... you know that Eric is running out of Swedish rock to talk about on this podcast so this might be you last chance to hear about that scene.. or not..
Either way tune in for your rock fix....

Love That Album: The Compilation Edition - Episode 23 - Lemmy Meek



Hey folks, it’s time to bring you some new Love That Album podcasting for 2016.

We’re starting off with episode 23 of Eric Reanimator’s  Love That Album – The Compilation Edition. In the last couple of weeks, rock music has lost (at least) three iconic rock music figures. Stevie Wright of The Easybeats, David Bowie (who did a cracking version of “Friday On My Mind”), and Ian “Lemmy” Kilmister. Eric starts this episode discussing two facets to Lemmy’s career. First, he discusses Lemmy’s first important band Hawkwind and their live album “Space Ritual” before moving onto the more iconic Motorhead live album “No Sleep 'Til Hammersmith”.

Then, he discusses a compilation of a very different artist, producer Joe Meek. He created a hit for the Tornados with “Telstar”, but as the compilation “The Alchemist Of Pop - Home Made Hits & Rarities 1959-1966” shows, he produced a lot of hits with his very distinctive style of heavy reverb and sped up sounds. Eric discusses the man and this compilation.
