THE MIXTAPE PODCAST AND THE BLACK SWAN WHITE NOISE PODCAST
Many thanks to Mark Phillips for inviting me on to his Mixtape and Black Swan White Noise podcasts.
Mark is in the process of transferring all his podcasts to a new platform HERE, I will update the link when my episodes are available!
We talk about ROCKSPLOITATION, rock n’ roll movies in general, and for his MIXTAPE podcast he asked me to offer up six songs as per the below prompts. I even added a few extras for fun – and all of them from rock n’ roll movies, of course!
