That Record Got Me High Podcast

Are you a music obsessive? Can you sit down for an hour or so poring over an album you love, digging deep into the lyrics, musical references and "secret sauce" that makes it so special to you? Then this just MIGHT be your podcast! Each week your host - rock-n-roll lifer and recovering punk Rob Elba - sits down with a special guest to dissect a record that - metaphorically - got them high.

S2E89 - The Cure "Disintegration" w/Natalia Bellus

That Record Got Me High Podcast ·

2019/11/29

Natalia Bellus brings scholarly insights into Robert Smith and his gothic, romantic inclinations to That Record Got Me High. We try and try to not look stupid, but alas, a lass does us in and gets the upper hand intellectually on Barry, and Jethro – which is Rob's real name. Disintegration will put you in a mood – to tease your dyed black hair, drink absinthe, and stand on cold deserted beaches.

2019/11/23

Friend of That Record Got Me High and (as will become obvious) extraordinarily good-natured Cathi Marro brings a record her 14-year-old self was touched (platonically) by, with, for, whatever. She loves Howard Jones and who are...we...to...argue? A spectral Orson Welles makes an appearance via Ouija Board and eats all of the food, drinks all the wine, and smokes cigars while playing with the cats.

We had the extreme fortune to have Naked Raygun frontman and prime mover Jeff Pezzati join guest Frank McCormick for a discussion of an iconic Chicago album, Naked Raygun's “Throb Throb,” whose cover you have seen in a cool friend's collection even if you don't own it yourself.

S2E84 – DEVO “Q:Are We Not Men?” w/Malcolm Tent

That Record Got Me High Podcast ·

2019/11/02

The ultimate spud – Malcolm Tent – self-professed maximum Devo connoisseur, brings their shocking, unprecedented debut album for us to wonder at and cheerfully dissect. There's a fair amount of "self-abuse” in both the albums's lyrical content and in our discussion, but we tee up for a Par 4 on the Back 9 with Malcolm and Chi Chi Rodriguez with Q: Are We Not Men?

2019/10/26

That Record Got Me High welcomes their tallest guest – Bill Howard – local (commercial, no sales to the public please) nursery owner and notorious former SFL bouncer to our monthly Live at The Laser Wolf show. He brings an album we all love, X's Slash Records debut, “Los Angeles,” which is a start-to-finish barn burner. If you bring Bill a pizza he'll give you back your fake ID.

The beloved unofficial Mayor of Hialeah, Florida – Ferny Coipel – whose incredibly lazy band Humbert gives occasional stellar live shows, is in love with Anne Frank, by proxy, in the guise of Neutral Milk Hotel's 1998 tender monolith, "In the Aeroplane Over the Sea." We do our best to not f*ck up this work that many hearts and minds love with an undying passion. Coffee was consumed, beer was drank, and after all, it's Hialeah.

S2E81 - Ministry "Psalm 69" with Richard Vergez

Please support TRGMH on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/join/TRGMH? Local artist Richard Vergez grew up in Miami and at the age of nine forced his father - with threats of extreme violence - to buy him Ministry's ΚΕΦΑΛΗΞΘ (Psalm 69: The Way to Succeed and the Way to Suck Eggs) on cassette. Richard found the album complemented his desire for raw power and world domination. He called us and made us an offer we couldn't refuse, so we spent an hour and change with the industrial/metal epic and artist

2019/10/05

Providence, Rhode Island used record dealer and drummer/guitarist for a few obscure New England bands (Mission of Burma, Volcano Suns, Kustomized, Minibeast) Peter Prescott brings Brian Eno's debut solo album to That Record Got Me High. It's a humdinger, and we all get reacquainted with just HOW influential this work really was (and is).

Steven Toth of Mr. Entertainment & The Pookiesmackers brings the first album he ever bought, literally, he actually brings the album, Alice Cooper's 1972 masterpiece “Killer.” John Lydon calls it “the greatest rock and roll album of all time.” We don't argue with his assessment.

2019/09/21

An album named for a television series about underwater militaristic puppets with fake American accents. A Pakistan native whose family drove from England back to Pakistan and then came back to England in a midget submarine. Nadeem Khan of Chimp Eats Banana, The Wildtones, Tandoori Knights et. al. brings Swell Maps insane, fantastic, influential debut “Trip to Marineville” to our show.

S2E77 – R.E.M. “Reckoning” – with Tom Lawery

That Record Got Me High Podcast ·

2019/09/14

Brookesville, Florida native Tom Lawery – who Barry Stock really should have known but didn't until now – drove over from St. Petersburg (formerly Leningrad) to bring us R.E.M.'s 1984 sophomore set, “Reckoning.” It’s an album that has done more than stand up over time, it seems to have actually gotten better. It's not all hagiography in our episode with Tom, but this record got us all high. Support Rob and Barry's work on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/join/TRGMH?

2019/09/07

Erudite and suavé Jeffrey Weaver, a patron, brings to our slash and blab idiot ambulance a circular vinyl sword aimed straight at the heart of everything in its path, The Fall's second full-length album, "Dragnet." Like a good sandwich monger he pulls from his mental meat wagon the proverbial goods, and we try and follow along while scribbling dimwitted cartoons on our vodka-sodden desks.

That Record Got Me High Podcast ·

2019/09/01

A contentious foursome gathered before anxious, sweaty microphones to pontificate conversely about the relative merits of Minneapolis underdogs Soul Asylum's A&M debut, “Hang Time.” Some found it full of promise, hope, and the scent of newly-mown grass, while others found that it smelled like the grass after horses digested it, and derivative of odious chumps like Aerosmith.

THIS IS A DUPLICATE TRACK TO FIX A PROBLEM WITH THE SPOTIFY STREAM. Camila Risso gets us on the horn with one of the originals, Popmaster Fabel, whose “pioneering individuality has been showcased internationally since 1982. President of the Hierophysics Theater Group, Senior member of the Rock Steady Crew and proud member of the Electric Boogaloos.” He picked an amazing gem from Jello Biafra’s Alternative tentacles label, the industrial/funk/rap monster that is “The Beatnigs.”

2019/08/09

Garry Messick comes in wth a killer classic by the divisive, polarizing duo of the late Walter Becker and the curmudgeonly Donald Fagen – AKA Steely Dan. Love them or hate them, you Can't Buy A Thrill better than listening to us rubes chew the fatback over this slab of alternately snarky and touching vignettes.

That Record Got Me High Podcast ·

2019/08/03

With the cancellation of a guest due to a case of having to go to banjo camp (NOT a euphemism), Rob Elba and Barry Stock grabbed this one off the shelf, an album that ought to be in YOUR collection if it's not. The Stranglers are singular, weird, perfect, a force of nature – just not an entirely benevolent one. Four aural sculptors, five fucking stars.

S2E70 – Kiss “Destroyer” – with Juan Montoya

That Record Got Me High Podcast ·

2019/07/26

KISS superfan and for-real metal guitarist deluxe Juan Montoya brings every 1976 teenage boy's rock and roll fantasy disc to That Record Got me High's monthly Live at Laser Wolf show. The deep philosophical lyrical content really has us scratching our beards and/or razor stubble, and we smoke pipes and drink cognac while scrunching up our foreheads. At the end we break out the acoustics and kick three KISS covers in the head, real hard. Thanks Juan Montoyer!
