In this episode, my friend, the legendary Sal Baglio of The Amplifier Heads returns with a new album, “Songs from They Came To Rock”. And what an album it is. As with a lot of Amplifier Heads albums, it’s a concept album. But this one is next level. Basically, the Boston-based artist teamed up with…

Woody Radio DJ Mike Show #482 5/4/2024: Interview with Minki Manzi of 50ft Woman!
In this episode, we meet Minki Manzi of London-based band 50ft Woman. This meeting of the minds was long overdue. I’ve actually known Minki for about 15 years, but we’d never actually spoken until this show. Allow me to explain and give full disclosure. We were both presenters at the late, great Recharged Radio. Back…

Woody Radio DJ Mike Show #480 4/27/2024: Interview with S.W. Lauden, and Jason Cropper of Chopper One!
In this episode, S.W. Lauden returns to the show with a really compelling project and a really cool friend. Generation Blue is both a book and a compilation album, covering the Hollywood “Geek Rock” scene of the 1990s-early 2000s. Now I always knew I was a geek, and I’ve always loved rock, but had I…

Woody Radio DJ Mike Show #478 4/20/2024: Interview with Stephen Bluhm!
In this episode, we get to meet multi-instrumentalist songwriter Stephen Bluhm. He’s got something in common with Taylor Swift–they both released two albums last Friday, 4/19! Aside from that, the comparisons start to thin out. Only one of those fine artists was with me on Woody Radio on Saturday, 4/20, and that would be Stephen.…

Woody Radio DJ Mike Show #464 3/2/2024: Interview with Bex Marshall!
In this episode, we get to meet Bex Marshall. She’s a wonderful British blues singer-songwriter-guitarist. And those three titles could go in any order and be appropriate. She’s that strong in all areas. She just released her first album in over 10 years, “Fortuna”, and is on a quickie visit to the US to play…

In this episode, the very prolific Sean O’Brien returns for some conversation about past, present, and future releases.

In this episode, we catch up with acclaimed guitarist Robert Poss. We last chatted on my old Twirl Radio show over 5 years ago. The founding member of Band of Susans just put out a great solo record, “drones, songs, and fairy dust”. If you like guitars, he’s got ’em–this is a guitar album, to…

Woody Radio DJ Mike Show #459 2/10/2024: Interview with Ian Wright and Peter Maxted of The Jack Rubies!
In this episode, Ian Wright and Peter Maxted of The Jack Rubies join me for some conversation and music. The Jack Rubies’ story is remarkable, in that the conventional wisdom would have you believe that this whole conversation and post wouldn’t be possible. The Jack Rubies were a great touring and recording band from Great…

Woody Radio DJ Mike Show #457 2/3/2024: Interviews with Bud Rogers, and Bethany Crouch & Cherie deFer!
In this episode, we had an interview doubleheader. First up, Bud Rogers, from Bedfordshire, UK. He’d been on my old Twirl Radio show, so it had been some years since we last visited. It was just like old times–lots of fun and laughs. We celebrated the remastered release of his great debut album Whiteout. Pick…

Best of 2023: DJ Mike’s top songs and albums!
It’s been a few years since I’ve done a year end list. The COVID pandemic made me reassess the wisdom of ranking songs and albums. After all, there are so many great artists out there whose music I enjoy and really, it’s not fair to say one is “better” than another. But I did want…
