On the eve of his latest Australian tour, Gary Puckett joins Kevin to chat about his incredible career which saw his band The Union Gap outsell The Beatles in their prime. From Woman Woman to Lady Willpower and Young Girl, the hits rolled out, dominating the charts and radio and television worldwide in the late 1960s. Sixty years later, Gary is still packing venues and those songs have stood the test of time and generations.
Kevin's other guest is Steve Balbi - best known for his work as the bass playing singer and songwriter with Noiseworks. Steve has since carved out a successful solo career and combines that with fronting MiSex and still making occasional live appearances with Noiseworks.
It is another fascinating insight into the life and times and memories of two very talented performers.
