Baxie speaks with Steve Smith of The Vapors! While most people remember The Vapors for their classic New Wave hit “Turning Japanese” (1980), their two studio albums were loaded with great songs that deserved equal attention. In 2016 The Vapors reformed after a 35-year hiatus. And this March they will release their latest album “Wasp in a Jar”. And it’s exceptionally good! Steve talks about the new record, being discovered by Bruce Foxton from The Jam, and about getting back in the road. The Vapors will be coming to the Bosch Theater at the Wang Center in. Boston on August 1st as part of the Lost 80’s Live tour—-which includes Big Country, Flock of Seagulls, General Public, Josie Cotton, Belouis Some, and China Crisis! Coming Monday on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, and on the Rock102 app!
