    Jesse Rifkin - This Must Be the Place: Music, Community and Vanished Spaces in New York City

    Jesse Rifkin in conversation with David Eastaugh https://walkonthewildsidenyc.com/about https://www.amazon.co.uk/This-Must-Be-Place-Community/dp/1335449329 Take a walk through almost any neighborhood in Manhattan and you'll likely pass some of the most significant clubs in American music history. But you won't know it--almost all of these venues have been demolished or repurposed, leaving no record of what they were, how they shaped music scenes or their impact on the neighborhoods around them. Traditional music history tells us that famous scenes are created by brilliant, singular artists. But dig deeper and you'll find that they're actually created by cheap rent, empty space and other unglamorous factors that allow artistic communities to flourish. The 1960s folk scene would have never existed without access to Greenwich Village's Washington Square Park. If the city hadn't gone bankrupt in 1975, there would have been no punk rock. Brooklyn indie rock of the 2000s was only able to come together because of the borough's many empty warehouse spaces. But these scenes are more than just moments of artistic genius--they're also part of the urban gentrification cycle, one that often displaces other communities and, eventually, the musicians themselves. Drawing from over a hundred exclusive interviews with a wide range of musicians, deejays and scenesters (including members of Peter, Paul and Mary; White Zombie; Moldy Peaches; Sonic Youth; Treacherous Three; Cro-Mags; Sun Ra Arkestra; and Suicide), writer, historian and tour guide Jesse Rifkin painstakingly reconstructs the physical history of numerous classic New York music scenes. This Must Be the Place examines how these scenes came together and fell apart--and shows how these communal artistic experiences are not just for rarefied geniuses but available to us all.

    Simon Reynolds - Still in a Dream Shoegaze, Slackers and the Reinvention of Rock, 1984–1994

    Simon Reynolds in conversation with David Eastaugh  https://store.whiterabbitbooks.co.uk/products/still-in-a-dream Twenty years after his acclaimed postpunk best-seller, Rip It Up and Start Again, Simon Reynolds tells the tale of what happened next: the underground explosion of noisepop, shoegaze, slacker rock and grunge that reverberated through the mid-Eighties into the early Nineties. Capturing the musical exhilaration of the era along with the alienation of youth during a period of ascendant conservative politics and glitzy mainstream pop, Still in a Dream celebrates a golden age of guitar reinvention, a second psychedelia of mind-blowing sounds pioneered by bands like My Bloody Valentine and Sonic Youth. In Britain, groups like Cocteau Twins and Slowdive escaped into shimmering dreamworlds while American underground rockers like Dinosaur Jr. and Pavement blended apathy and urgency into thrilling noise. A propulsive and personal account from a journalist who covered this music in real time from the frontlines, Still in a Dream vividly recreates a period that was the last blast for the analogue culture of vinyl records and music papers, before the Internet changed everything.

    Trevor Johnson - The 15th & Task Force

    Trevor Johnson in conversation with David Eastaugh  https://the15thband.bandcamp.com/album/inside-out https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QPgWkLb-DEU&t=1s An underground indie & jangle pop single from 1989 that has never really seen the light of day, “Inside Out” B/w “Rumours Of Rain” although both sides are regarded as A sides. These recordings were initially recorded as demos for the purpose of a label to hear them & then sign us, so we could record it professionally & then we could release it, but no interest, I think labels were looking for a more polished sound at that time, the recording was sadly let down by the recording studio who weren’t really interested & didn’t know how to record that type of music as they were more focused on jazz & blues, also the fact the drummer wasn’t actually apart of the band he was just hanging around the studio at the time so we got him in to drum on the single last minute, it was Andy & Trev who wrote the song. This was recorded at Northern Recording Studio in Delves Lane Consett In early 1988 & later released in January 1989, a self released private press with pink & white plain labels although some copies were both white, around about 300 copies in total were pressed with various different homemade diy sleeves, only a handful of actual photocopied sleeves exist, some of the labels have been written on but the majority of them remain blank, in fact the only reason this got pressed in the first place is because Trev wrote to The Prince's Trust asking them for help as we were a young band that could never afford to press our own records, but we didn’t think they would actually help, so it’s a miracle this record even exists in the first place, if only this was sent to the right label or better promoted back in 89 but for now this remains an underground indie pop single/release.

    Tae Won Yu - Kicking Giant

    Tae Won You in conversation with David Eastaugh https://kickinggiant.bandcamp.com/album/alien-i-d-klp034 Rachel Carns' first band was Kicking Giant with fellow Cooper Union student Tae Won Yu, with whom she played drums and sang from 1990–1995. Their first show was in the storefront window of a Brooklyn junk shop; Carns stood up and played just one drum, a floor tom. Kicking Giant played around New York City and the northeast with bands like Codeine, Uncle Wiggly, and fellow "love-rockers" Sleepyhead; Carns continued to expand her stand-up kit, building around the central floor tom, anchor to Yu's whirling guitar and bedrock of their unique sound. Live, their largely improvised mash of punk, free jazz, sugar-candy pop, and pure poetry meant that Kicking Giant never played the same set, or even the same song, twice.

    Frank Secich & Jim Kendzor - Blue Ash

    Frank Secich & Jim Kendor in conversation with David Eastaugh  https://www.facebook.com/fsecich https://peppermintrecords.bandcamp.com/album/dinner-at-mr-billys DINNER AT MR. BILLY'S During 1971 and 1972, the classic Blue Ash line-up of David Evans, Jim Kendzor, Bill "Cupid" Bartolin and Frank Secich played more than quite a bit in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. It seemed like we were playing "The Burgh" 4-5 nights a week. At the time, we had two booking agencies in Pittsburgh, Go Attractions (Rich Engler and Paul St. John) and Fly By Night Productions owned by Joe Riccelli. One time back then we were driving on Rt. 51 south of Pittsburgh to a gig in Clarion. Cupid looked out the window of the car and saw a big sign for a restaurant called "Mr Billy’s”. He said to all of us as he pointed to the sign, "If we ever get to make an album, we should call it "Dinner At Mr. Billy's". We all laughed. I thought it was a hilarious idea. Cupid and I even wrote a song right after that called "Dinner At Mr. Billy’s", then we promptly forgot about the whole idea. While going through the vaults recently at Peppermint Productions, we found the tape of the song "Dinner At Mr. Billy's" and in honor of Cupid, Mr. Billy has now finally made it out of oblivion and on to an album.
