73_AP Gonzalez- Lump, Universal Congress Of_Alpha Sardine - NOLA Drummer Series 09

AP Gonzalez is my guest for today's continuation of the CBBP New Orleans Drummers Series!!! AP is one of the rare drummers who bridges punk/jazz& funk & was an absolute idol of mine while playing in his band Lump in the early-mid-90’s. We get into his original band Black Problem, being an oddball band in the late 80’s in New Orleans, going out to LA during the 92’ riots to record with SST band Universal Congress Of, the failure and the subsequent victory of learning UCO’s material, forming Lump and meeting Galactic saxophonist Ben Ellman/ his new band Alpha Sardine, early memories of when he first started playing, his love for The Minutemen, The Clash, Devo, Elvis Castello, Bad Brains, James Blood Ulmer plus stories about mullets, Jerry Springer, Bourbon Street & more!!https://www.facebook.com/Alpha-Sardine-340508063046743/CBBP Sponsor: http://www.neworleansrecordpress.com/
