Got into Was (Not Was) a few months ago without any context and was wondering where that strange band came from and where it went. Searched for any podcast and found a *six* hour interview that explained everything.

Ha ha. Just spreading the love, my friend. Consider it an investment 👍
Just finished this. Absolutely revelatory interview with someone who was a name on my beloved PSB records. Who knew his history with Frankie, Fuzzbox and (!) Chris de Burgh!?
I never cared about Was (not Was) at the time but there’s some 80s gems discussed on this podcast.
Thanks. Please retweet the episode if you
Like it. It’s my only hope to get new listeners 👍
As a teen in the 80s, I was aware of "Walk the Dinosaur" by Was (Not Was) but didn't seek out the rest of their music. But something made me pick up "Are You Okay?" when it came out, and it became one of my faves because it was so...weird. Thank you @80sography.bsky.social for this amazing series!!

Ha. Even then it took some prompting as he wasn’t going to say anything at first. Come on Andy, let’s hear about The Monobrow of Love, etc.
He was an absolute pleasure to
Interview. Top bloke.
There's a *lot* to love about this Andy Richards interview from @80sography.bsky.social, but the best is that - after many hours of Andy being *incredibly nice* about absolutely everybody he's ever worked with - he gets to Chris de Burgh and doesn't hold back.

Thanks, as always, Christopher.
Another great episode from @80sography.bsky.social Beyond the obvious song, I wasn't familiar with the guest, but it's a fabulous interview.

It’s all about the little things, Stephen, it’s all about the little things…👍
Thanks Christopher, nice to hear from you again. Merry Christmas!😎👍
I've got 3 from @80sography.bsky.social to catch up on. Am saving the previous two until February, but, despite not knowing this album or liking Paul Simon's music much, I enjoyed this episode. I'm guessing that Russ Titelman wasn't a fan of Roland Barthes 😉😂 Glad the disagreement wasn't edited out.
Although I don't love the whole album as much 80sography, but this is a fascinating album and great interview.
The album does contain one of Simon's most underrated and best songs, "Rene and Georgette Magritte with their Dog After the War."
Episode #77 of @80sography.bsky.social Podcast is interview with legendary Producer Russ Titelman on the majestic Hearts and Bones by Paul Simon.

Would love this on vinyl.
You might enjoy buy chat on this with producer Russ Titelman...

Agreed. I thought he threw the baby out of the bathwater wiping all his contributions. Cars and Cars and Johnny Ace also have bridges improved by Art.
I got to speak to Producer Russ Titelman about it - you might enjoy...
