  • Episode 2: I fought the law by The Clash
    A song that inspired generations of musical outlaws.When Mick Jones and Joe Strummer stumbled upon a cover song by a one-hit wonder from 1966, they had no idea they were uncovering a relic by the original rock & roll band, ‘The Crickets’. Rising from the shadow of leader Buddy Holly, they re-group to pioneer the model for independent bands of the future. A journey packed with mystery and deja vu events. Assembled and presented by Chris Lastelle. https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2BASHnEHaQ3rQtc0LQ0itQ?si=28fd39d3bd444985&pt=0d0dd81ac0ab7f9ee2dbd70d3137393e.https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLYvGZtNAWbk1OxA1pSk-NrYUX_3KEoNQe&si=qzgomYOz53ijEAtOIf you have ideas for an episode; general comments to glaring omissions or maybe just want to say hello: [email protected] podcast is assembled and produced by musician, composer, engineer/producer: Chris Lastelle.

  • Episode 1: Tainted Love by Soft Cell
    A classic tale of obscurity to fame. A story that weaves together Motown, Northern Soul, Synth-Pop and the tragic death of Marc Bolan - an unknown song from 1965 gets re-worked into a 1981 global hit. Random events and dumb luck, indie verses mainstream all combine in the most unbelievable journey.
