Show Notes

The recording artist and producer has been in hand-to-hand combat in the musical trenches since the Paisley Underground days of Green On Red. Since then Chuck’s solo career has included over a dozen releases as well as collaborations with Alejandro Escovedo, Tony Visconti, Jim Dickinson, and Kelly Willis, among others. With a terrific new record, “The Land That Time Forgot,” slated for an August release, he peers into the abyss of the unknown unknown and studies the tea leaves for signs of life. Fleas the size of rats may suck on rats the size of cats, but it’s going to take a lot more than that to keep this buoyant Diamond Dog down. Tonight he joins the Troubled Men to survey the landscape while keeping it pithy. Topics include a news conference, the supply chain, an analogy, shopping, miscues, essential business, the change, early shaming, Mexico City, swine flu, Alvarado Blvd, the Adolescents, Rusty Anderson, guitar world, the Bay Area scene, a new record, pimp talent, touring life, the Temple Beautiful, Wall of Voodoo, “Strings in the Temple,” livestreams, beige, taste, the ecosystem, termites, Uganda Roberts, Klipschutz, Upstate recording, Kenny Segal, persuasion, a backstage hang, Doug Garrison, the Chilton trio, a Cramps sleepover, Charlie Sexton, and much more.
