And so it's probably better to say without Mitch Miller, you would have no George Martin rather than that Martin was an acolyte.
Nate WilcoxHOST
56:43
But still, the guy and I think the guy I was first introduced to him as sort of a villain, as an enemy of rock and roll, reading people like Dave Marsh growing up.

56:53

Mike GoldGUEST
166:08
Uh, Marsh invited me in.
Mike GoldGUEST
166:11
Marsh, it was Marsh's, uh, stepdaughter who, who had died, actually, so th- this was her event.
Mike GoldGUEST
166:17
And, um, okay, politically, we are all of similar mind, which helps in, at a table with those three guys.
Mike GoldGUEST
166:29

MurdockHOST

Dave Marsh, the, uh, author, he's literally the guy who wrote the book on Louis Louis.
MurdockHOST
27:41
The book is called Louis Louis, and it has an awesome long subtitle, but he opens the chapter about the FBI entanglement with this sentence: "Nobody, not you, not me, not the G-men ultimately assigned to this case, knows where the story started.
MurdockHOST
27:56

I think people will be surprised, and yes, people are gonna listen to the other band, and they're gonna critique the other band and, and as we were talking about when Matt Aurle and Laura Nonke were on to pay tribute to Dave Marsh, we know that the audience didn't accept that band fully.
Hal SchwartzHOST
28:49
