A video-audio rendition of this podcast is available on my Youtube channel here: UCVVqtfTwNVg590TbfndMR_Q Today’s guest is bassist Graham Maby. His association with British musician Joe Jackson began in 1973 when they became members of a local Portsmouth cover band. Five years later Jackson’s solo recording career took off, with Graham’s bass playing front and center on albums like Look Sharp! and I’m the Man. Jackson’s biggest-selling album came in 1982, with the million-selling Night and Day. The success of the album firmly established Jackson as an artist and Maby’s reputation as a versatile bass player. Since 1983, Graham has lived in the USA. During that time, as well as working on numerous albums and tours with Jackson, he has recorded and performed live with many different artists, among them: Marshall Crenshaw, Natalie Merchant, Jon Bon Jovi, Bruce Springsteen, Joan Baez, Ian Hunter, Freedy Johnston, They Might Be Giants, Henry Lee Summer, the Silos, Graham Parker, Darden Smith, Dar Williams, Garland Jeffreys, Joy Askew, and Regina Spektor.--- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/brian-doherty8/support

In 1994 Rolling Stone named Johnston the ‘Songwriter of the Year’, describing him as “A master storyteller, (who) sketches out full-blown tragedies in a few poetic lines, and he joins that elite cadre of songwriters—Bob Dylan, Neil Young, and Elvis Costello.--- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/brian-doherty8/support

This is Stephan Galfas’ FIRST interview! Stephan Galfas has worked with hundreds of artists, spanning over 5 decades, including Meat Loaf, The Allman Brothers, John Waite, and Kool and The Gang, to name only a few. He was also the owner of the House of Music in West Orange, NJ, a recording studio where dozens of classic albums were made.One such album Stephan produced at the House of Music was Tasty by the Good Rats. I first saw the Good Rats in the late 70’s at the Asbury Park Convention Center. They were the opening act and on a bill with Dicky Betts and Eddie Money. At first glance, they were an odd band with a caveman look. The lead singer sported gym shorts and wore knee high tube socks. Most of the set he swung a baseball bat and sometimes smashed a metal garbage can with the bat. The rest of the band looked like they’d surely be on a modern-day no fly list. They played their asses off and were beyond entertaining. They exuded humor and irony. Their songs were a twisted mix of different genres, and reminiscent of KISS or Black Sabbath, with a touch of George Gershwin thrown in. Their set was tight, well polished. Background vocals were impeccable, in tune, well- rehearsed, with intricate arrangements and harmonies. These guys were nothing short of total pros and played a 30 minute set with intent to slay the audience. And that they did. Soon after, I discovered that, although heralding from Long Island, NY, they were popular staples in the bars in northern New Jersey, near my hometown of Randolph. I would go on to see them live many times, mostly at The Showplace, in Dover, NJ where they were regulars. They never disappointed and I’ve been a serious fan ever since.From the very first moment that Stephan and I spoke together, it was all Good Rats. It seemed that after many years, he needed an outlet and to be heard about the Good Rats. The faucet opened on how they worked together, and how they produced a body of such unique albums of songs. From my end, my head was swimming with questions that my mouth couldn’t speak fast enough. I simply had too many. The conversation you’re about to hear is a bit long, yet I couldn’t justify editing it into 2 separate parts, as the interview flowed naturally from one point to the next. I hope you enjoy it.

Brad celebrated his 50th year of his first band gig this past June with 4,321 documented live shows. Brad is still drumming and songwriting with his band The Handcuffs who will be releasing their fourth album this year with no plans to retire. Brad has also been drumming for The Romantics for the past sixteen years and they call him the second original drummer with now being with the band almost three times as long as original drummer, Jimmy Marinos. Brad grew up in mid state Illinois in Pekin and Peoria, IL before moving to Champaign, IL with his band Screams, in late 1976. He details his varied and exciting career throughout our conversation. I want to welcome Brad to the show.Screams were signed in late 1978 and they released their debut album in 1979 on the short lived record label, Infinity/MCA. Screams toured with Van Halen for four months before heading to England to headline their own tour. In Brad's lengthy fifty career he has shared concert bills with hundreds of acts such as The Ramones, Cheap Trick, The Clash, Billy Idol, Psychedelic Furs, Blondie, B-52's, The Raspberries, Iggy Pop, on and on. Brad's next band, The Elvis Brothers released two albums on Portrait/CBS in the golden era of '80s MTV and also an independent album in 1992. From there he formed Big Hello with three albums and they were the darlings of the early IPO festivals in Los Angeles. Brad and his wife Chloe continued on to The Handcuffs who continue to perform live and release critically acclaimed albums. Brad is a self taught drummer who was drawn to the drumming style of Keith Moon from purchasing The Who single at the time, "I Can See For Miles". Young Brad inhaled any and everything by Moon and The Who along with other drum heroes like Ginger Baker, Ringo and John Bonham to name a few. Brad has been drum stick twirling, drum stick bouncing and drumming on many recording sessions and shows ever since. With a dozen albums released in his lengthy career, he has performed in thirteen countries and thousands of shows, Brad is now writing his book of his nonstop journey in rock and roll with more stories than you can shake a drumstick at. Meeting along the way, Bob Dylan, David Bowie, Pete Townshend, Carl Perkins, Charlie Watts and too many to name. Brad also sat in on drums a few years ago as guest drummer with The Beach Boys and The Bangles along with many other experiences which will be in his book. See you all in 2021.--- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/brian-doherty8/support
