Episode no. 1 of the King Alphonso Radio Hour Podcast with Réamann. An entertaining interview and chat between two old friends - Franz Treichler (from Swiss post-industrial band The Young Gods) and Réamann O'Gormain (Raymond Gorman, ex-That Petrol Emotion and now The Everlasting Yeah). First in a series of podcasts with musicians, writers, journos, poets and actors with an emphasis on the immigrant's story, fun, laughter, collectivity, spirituality, great art and the war on loneliness. All welcome.

King Alphonso Podcast no. 1 - Franz  Treichler / Young Gods

In the third episode of our Lockdown Lowdown series, we welcome Raymond Gorman, guitarist and vocalist with The Everlasting Yeah and That Petrol Emotion into the virtual Retrosonic Podcast studio. In this thoroughly entertaining episode Raymond talks us through some of his most memorable musical moments from hearing The Beatles for the first time and impressing the girls with his dancing to T-Rex. He explains about various gigs and records that made an impact on him and his guitar playing and there are some candid stories of why he stopped playing piano, why he couldn't get into the legendary Casbah Club and how That Petrol Emotion almost signed to Creation. Along the way we learn about his encounters with Iggy Pop, Kevin Rowland, John Cooper-Clarke, Pete Wylie, Dieter Meyer of Yello, Ian McLagan and of course The Undertones. This hugely enjoyable trip down memory lane is soundtracked by some of Raymond's favourite tunes from The Beatles, Marc Bolan & T-Rex, Taste (featuring Rory Gallagher), Horslips, The Undertones, Dexy's Midnight Runners, Iggy Pop, The Sweet and David Bowie. There's also a pick of some of Raymond's own work with That Petrol Emotion and The Everlasting Yeah along with a rare snippet of his first live performance with John O'Neill. "Self-consciousness is the enemy of good art" - Raymond Gorman.
