S4E180 - Bonzo Dog Band 'Urban Spaceman' with Ira Robbins
Published 4 years, 9 months ago
Description
Legendary rock and roll magazine Trouser Press was a big part of my musical coming-of-age, so I was super excited to have founding editor/publisher Ira Robbins on the show to discuss a record that expanded HIS artistic horizons as a NY teenager: "Urban Spaceman" by Bonzo Dog Band. A collective as much as a band, the Bonzo's combined an absurdist mix of pop, cabaret, and Dada to create a surrealist portrait of late-60s England and beyond.
