EPYSODE 46: "Black Monk Time". Guest: Monk's bassist Eddie Shaw. This epysode dives deep into "Black Monk Time", the groundbreaking 1966 album by The Monks, with special guest Eddie Shaw — the band’s bassist and author of the memoir also titled Black Monk Time. Hear firsthand stories about the band's wild time in Germany, their proto-punk sound, and how five American GI's accidentally created one of the most radical records of the '60s.

In this episode, we're interviewing the talented jazz vocalist and songwriter Andy James. Known for her expressive phrasing and flamenco-inspired flair, Andy has carved out a unique space in contemporary jazz —and her latest album, Happy People, is a radiant, genre-blending celebration of just that: joy, connection, and groove. Andy’s musical journey has taken her across the globe and into the studio with some legends, including the late, great jazz icon Chick Corea, who she was a close collaborator with.  Whether she’s interpreting a classic or crafting original compositions, Andy brings both soul and technical brilliance to everything she does.

In Episode 316 of History in Five Songs with Martin Popoff, Martin takes a cheeky sideways swipe at the groove: Martin lines up Deep Purple, Queen, The Jam, Boomtown Rats, and The Clash, drops the needle on their “too‑funky‑for‑their‑own‑good” moments, and shows how a fatback beat can splinter line‑ups, sideline guitars, and tank whole careers. If you’re curious why Richie Blackmore bolted, how Freddie’s dance‑floor obsession blindsided Brian May, or where Paul Weller’s mojo wandered, cue this episode and hear Martin’s vinyl‑crackling verdict on bands ruined by funk.
