In episode five, Stephen Lambe talks to Gregg (GD) Praetorius about his riotous memoir of life promoting rock bands in Long Island during the years around 1980, Babysitting A Band On The Rocks, published on May 14th in the USA and June 28th in the USA.

They discuss how Gregg got into writing; a fortuitous evening hanging out with Keith Richards; working with Aeorsmith, Van Halen, Ted Nugent and AC/DC, as well as encounters with Yes, Jethro Tull and Ritchie Blackmore.

There's also a deeper dive into the politics of rock promotion at the time. It's a conversation not to be missed.

To celebrate his birthday, Stephen Lambechats to legendary British rock journalists and long term podcast hosts, David Hepworth and Mark Ellen.

The subject is Stephen's 'rock life', so the trio discuss his love of Yes, chunky Australian rock, plus his two Progressive Rock festivals Summer's End and Winter's End - plus, of course, Sonicbond Publishing.
