EPYSODE 53: "If Only For A Moment" by Blossom Toes. Guest: Blossom Toes guitarist Jim Cregan. Additional commentary by Uncle Herff. This week we dive deep into "If Only For a Moment " (1969), the cult-favorite psychedelic rock masterpiece from Blossom Toes. Joining us is guitarist Jim Cregan, who shares rare, behind-the-scenes stories about the making of the album, the band’s evolution from baroque pop to heavier rock, and how the record fits into the late-60s psychedelic movement. Whether you’re a long-time fan or discovering Blossom Toes for the first time, this conversation brings new life to one of the era’s most overlooked albums.

In this episode of Prisoners of Rock and Roll, we’re going all the way back to the beginning of rock and roll – and our back catalogue – by taking another look at Sun Records.  In January 1950, Sam Phillips and his assistant Mario Keisker opened a small recording studio in a former auto glass repair shop in Memphis, Tennessee and the rest is rock and roll history. Sun Records brought us the first rock and roll song Rocket 88 by Jackie Brenston and his Delta Cats. They also introduced the world to Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash, Jerry Lee Lewis, and more.  We’re going to talk about the history of Sun Records and Sam Phillips, the roster of amazing artists that recorded there, and the impact it had on music forever. Let’s roll. Or as Johnny Cash would say, “get rhythm.” Episode Playlist Check out our episode playlist ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.
