Baxie talks to guitar legend Uli Jon Roth! In 1973, Uli Jon Roth replaced Michael Schenker as the lead guitarist for the Scorpions. For the next five years, Uli would cement his place as one of the most gifted guitar wizards of his (or any generation). Just listen to his performance "Sails of Charon" from the 1977 album "Taken By Force"! Uli talks about his years with the band, his continued friendship with his former bandmates, and about leaving the band to form the band Electric Sun! Uli talks in depth about the difference between European guitarist and the rest of the world. We even talk about the development of Sky Guitars---his own line of incredibly inventive high-end guitars! Absolutely fascinating stuff!

Baxie talks with 80’s Pop/New Wave/MTV sensation Belouis Some! In this interview Belouis (ne: Neville Keighly) talks about his fascinating journey from being a virtually ignored solo artist to recording his first album in 1985 with the likes of Carlos Alomar and Earl Slick (both from David Bowie’s band) as well as Bernard Edwards and Tony Thompson from Chic. That first album would yield two international hits (“Imagination” and the title track “Some People). Belouis talks about the release of his controversial music videos and about being handpicked to support Queen on tour the following year. He also talks openly about walking away from music in 1995 and why he made an incredible comeback after 24 years! Belouis Some was to begin touring the US with The Alarm and Jay Ashton’s Gene Loved Jezebel later this month! That tour which as to include stops in Northampton and New Haven has been postponed. But the Belouis Some story is so amazing that it needs to be told! Listen on Apple Podcasts, SoundCloud, Spotify, and on the Rock102 website

Baxie talks with Mark Burgess from The Chameleons! While The Chameleons were, perhaps, one of the most overlooked bands of the 80's, many believe that their greatness should have put them in the same conversation as The Cure, The Smiths, and New Order. I happen to be one of those people. Mark talks about that and a whole lot more. This includes an in-depth discussion about the upcoming release of their first set of new music in 20 years! Their upcoming album is slated to come out later this year! As a fan of The Chameleons for nearly 40 years--it was a real treat to speak with the leader of one of my all-time favorite bands! Available on Apple Podcasts, SoundCloud, Spotify, and on the Rock102 website.

Baxie talks to biographer Simon Heaviside the author of "Destiny Stopped Screaming: The Life and Times of Adrian Borland". Adrian Borland and his band The Sound were one of the most criminally overlooked bands of all time. And Simon's new book looks into not only his rich musical history but also his tragic struggle with mental illness. It's a profoundly sad story of a man who was considered by many to have been a true musical genius. And the book captures all of it. Simply amazing!
