Book Musik 049 – Dennis Wilson and Charlie Manson – discussion with author Jack Skelley

Posted on July 1, 2021August 4, 2022 by Book Musik

Tosh and Kimley are joined by author Jack Skelley to discuss his new book Dennis Wilson and Charlie Manson. How did fun-loving, handsome surfer-dude and famous Beach Boy drummer Dennis Wilson become entangled with the creepy, dark, murderous cult leader Charlie Manson? As we all know, there are two sides to every coin and Skelley takes the real-life intersection of these two men as well as the pop culture of the era and those around them as its jumping off point to explore the high and low, the dark and the light in this stunningly poetic, strikingly illustrated chapbook.

Book Musik 048 – Roxy Music’s Avalon (33 1/3) – discussion with author Simon Morrison

Posted on June 15, 2021August 4, 2022 by Book Musik

Tosh and Kimley are joined by author Simon Morrison to discuss his new book Roxy Music’s Avalon (33 1/3). Mention Avalon to diehard Roxy Music fans and you’ll get a wide spectrum of responses, but few would put it at the top of their list even if they like it. However, Avalon (their last studio album), is the band’s most successful album in terms of sales and Morrison is more than happy to defend its brilliance with its lush production and sensuous vibe.
