'THE TAMI SHOW' w/ Steve Wynn

This week, we are joined by one of the legends of the American Underground, STEVE WYNN (The Dream Syndicate), who picked the jaw-dropping THE TAMI SHOW from 1964 to discuss. We also talk about the excitement of being young in the studio for the first time, the four elements that make a great record and how The Fall inhabited all of them, working with Peter Buck, being a snobby music snob, Chris seeing The Dream Syndicate open for R.E.M. on their Reckoning/Medicine Show Tour, how they evolved from Days to Medicine Show, watching The TAMI Show with the Pasiley Underground members in the theater, how the film and its sequel, the TNT SHOW, were split up into yet a different third film, Van Halen opening for Sparks, the feeling of the music industry hanging in the air in L.A., how the director also made the Elvis Comeback Special and the Star Wars Holiday Special, the narc energy of Jan & Dean, Smokey Robinson’s voice going out during his perfomrance int he film, Mick Jagger finding out how to be Mick Jagger in this performance, The Stones vs. James Brown mythology, Marvin Gaye & The Blossoms, how the Velvet Underground lifted a song from Marvin Gaye, the incredible power of Leslie Gore’s perfomrance, Dennis Wilson (almost) stealing the film with his drum performance, Keith Moon, Steve seeing The Beach Boys on the Surf’s Up tour, Billy Kramers’ high creep factor even though Lennon/McCartney kept writing songs for him, the Americana trend over in Europe 84, X, The Supremes, Diana Ross’ voice slaying and her eye makeup killing, The Barabrians transcending time, Tony and The Tigers and more!

So throw your cape off your back and struggle back to the microphone with us on this week’s Revolutions Per Movie
