Sam St. John | Interview with Los Straitjackets' Gringo Starr

For his first contribution to Vinyl Community Podcasts, Sam St. John presents an interview he conducted with  Chris "Gringo Starr" Sprague, drummer of Los Straitjackets, the long time touring band of artist Nick Lowe. We discuss Chris' own background in music, playing with Nick and the Straitjackets respectively, as well as the road to the new album "Indoor Safari," the first Nick Lowe album in over a decade - out September 13 on YepRoc records. Now in year 30(!) of the band, hear all about that and how the Straitjackets set a record for most band appearances on Conan O'Brien back in the day. That and MORE here on the latest episode of Vinyl Community Podcasts!
