Host: Mal Thursday
This episode is a sequel to The Mal Thursday Show #16: Riot on Sunset Strip Revisited, once again turning the spotlight on the L.A. scene of the mid-’60s, with appearances by some of the era’s most rockin’ combos, including the Leaves, the Sons of Adam, the Avengers, and the Standells. Then, direct from Sonic Nightmares mission control in Switzerland, Mal’s special guest Gringo Starr spins a set of his favorite bands from the Southern California garage scene of the ’80s, including the Pandoras, the Tell-Tale Hearts, and the Untold Fables (if you dig the Fables, you'll want to download Out of the Vaults, Into Your Ears # 21). If you want the whole story on the Sunset Rebellion, be sure to check out Domenic Priore's great book, Riot On Sunset Strip – Rock 'n' Roll's Last Stand in Hollywood.
