NSTS Episode 186 – Stephen Stanley Live at Steam Whistle

What better way to wrap up the Steam Whistle live on location sessions than with my dear pal, the incredibly gifted Stephen Stanley? In this finale episode, Stephen and I cover a lot of ground – his new record, his new radio show, his new t-shirt…!

In addition to sharing some fantastic skin-vibrating songs, Stephen also shares some great stories, like the time when he was introduced as “Steve and Stan Lee”, his experiences in America with Lowest of the Low, R.E.M.’s Peter Buck playing his guitars during a Horseshoe gig, and how an owl both terrified him and inspired him to write a very special song which he performs live for us. Thanks and sincere apologies to Lisa Taillefer (in fact pronounced ‘tie-fair’) and everyone at Steam Whistle for making the live on location series an unforgettable experience.

Stanley’s playlist:

The Flaming Lips – Mother Please Don’t Be Sad

David Bromberg – Mr. Bojangles

Drive By Truckers – Thoughts & Prayers  

The Weather Station – Robber

Daniel Romano – (Gone Is) All But A Quarry of Stone
