This week, Pearl E. Gates (aka Pearl Harbour) from Bay Area new wave faves Pearl Harbor & The Explosions gives us a glimpse of some of the artists of the era who had the biggest impact on her. Along the way, Pearl shares her fascinating story: a military brat growing up in Germany who makes her way to San Francisco with a plane ticket and $75, joins The Tubes as a backup singer and dancer, which led to joining Leila and the Snakes before spinning off to form Pearl Harbor & The Explosions. After the moderate success of their single "Drivin'" for indie label 415 Records, the band was signed to Warner Bros. Records for their self-titled debut album, released in January 1980. It's a dynamic record that mixes new wave energy with pop, R&B, rockabilly, and jazz. They shared stages with the likes of Talking Heads, The Police, The Clash, and The B-52's. Differences in opinion regarding the Explosions' musical direction led to Pearl departing for England, where she recorded her rootsy, rockin' 1980 solo album Don't Follow Me, I'm Lost Too, with a dream band including Wilko Johnson from Dr. Feelgood and members of the Blockheads and the Clash. In fact, in the '80s, Pearl was married to Clash bassist Paul Simonon. She also takes us through her rare mid-'80s album that never saw a U.S. release (Pearls Galore), her blazing '90s set Here Comes Trouble, and how her countrified return was sidelined by a lung cancer diagnosis. Now thankfully in remission, we are blessed to have this living icon of new wave history share her story. Oh, and in a head-turning twist, Uncle Gregg tackles the one question that nobody else has dared to ask! Liberation Hall has just released an expanded edition of Pearl Harbor & The Explosions on opaque sky-blue vinyl, CD and digital, containing bonus tracks and the original UK album cover design. ⁠https://pearlharbortheexplosions.bandcamp.com/album/pearl-harbor-the-explosions⁠ Special thanks to Randy Haecker from Prime Mover Media for the introduction and coordination!

As we start our 3rd year of First Concert Memories, the monthly sidecast from your friends at The Ugly American Werewolf in London, we welcome our friend Richard Evans to tell the tale of seeing Bruce Springsteen live in 1980. Richard is the head writer of Rock N Roll Archeology, one of the great podcasts in the Pantheon Podcasts family, which is hosted by Pantheon CEO & Co-Founder Christian Swain. Richard & Christian have been friends since the 70s and Richard turned Christian onto The Boss when they were teenagers. When Bruce's double album The River came out in 1980, his reputation for a stellar live performance had made it to the west coast and the boys got tickets to one of the 4 sold out shows at the LA Sports Arena. Fans of Bruce recall this tour as a special one as he played most all of the 20 tracks on the album along with back catalog favorites for a 3.5+ hour extravaganza that featured a young Bruce and the E Street Band in their prime (and before the worldwide fame of Born in the USA). Hear how they maneuvered through scalpers to upgrade their seats from the last row in the upper deck to the floor, how they ingested some psychedelic enhancers during the intermission, how the band celebrated Halloween (it was on October 31, 1980) and how they blew past the security guard, got down on the floor and made it all the way to the front. A fateful Halloween Night for our heroes!
