Tune in now for our brand new Rabid Sessions from Thump Studios in Greenpoint, Brooklyn, with the one and only Jesse Malin.
The (recently revived) D-Generation frontman (and former leader of New York hardcore greats Heart Attack , Hope , and Bellvue , all of whom I spin during this show) and prolific solo star stopped by Greenpoint’s Thump studios to record some live in session songs (I particularly like the first one offered, “Moscow”) and sit for a spirited and funny interview with yours truly.
I’ve known Mr. Malin for 31 years, and he’s one of my favorite music scene people in all of New York, so the good feelings are running high. Accordingly, I also spin some related tracks by Even Worse (my old 1980-1984 punk band, we played with Jesse’s Heart Attack a good 8-9 times), Graham Parker & the Rumour , The Clash , Bad Brains , and Jesse solo, that I knew he would like. Why not check it out? Once again, You might not spend a more enjoyable hour today.
