Love That Album: The Compilation Edition 45 - Under The Covers

When a 90s Power Pop revivalist and an 80s Pop Queen.. who really is a garage rocker at heart... team up for 3 albums of covers  featuring songs from the 1960s (Vol 1), the 1970s (Vol 2) and the 1980s (Vol 3) you get a interesting road map to the music of a generation.....

Eric wasn't expecting to go that way with this episode (but Maurice is happy he did).... but let's do it. This great collection goes both with some obvious favourites and some less investigated gems, showing that Hoffs and Sweet have a true love for the broad umbrella of the history of rock and pop.  Ming Tea is Groovyyyyyyyyy.....

Love That Album episode 89 - Interview with Darian Sahanaja of Wondermints and Brian Wilson’s Band

It’s time for episode 89 of Love That Album podcast.

Maurice is joined in discussion by Darian Sahanaja, the long time “music secretary” of Brian Wilson’s band. He is also one of the songwriters and keyboard player for Los Angeles pop maestros, Wondermints. Besides Darian, Nick Walusko, Mike D’Amico and Probyn Gregory have all been absorbed into Brian’s band.

The conversation took place while Darian was in Australia with Brian for a final tour playing Pet Sounds live. The conversation incorporated Darian’s early love of Beach Boys (and how it got him beat up), the great albums of Wondermints (including Mind If We Make Love To You and Bali), Austin Powers, Henry Mancini, 60s pop, lounge music, Darian’s involvement with the 40^th anniversary of The Zombies’ “Odessey and Oracle”, the nineties power pop movement….and a whole lot more.

Thanks so much to Darian for being so generous with his time. We hope all Love That Album listeners will enjoy this fascinating insight into this great musician.
