Howard Libes has been a writer for over 30 years. He edited the 2,300-page manuscript of If They Move … Kill’em: The Life and Times of Sam Peckinpah by David Weddle (Atlantic/Grove Press) and worked as a collaborator — writer and interviewer — on Among the Mansions of Eden: Tales of Love, Lust, and Land in Beverly Hills by David Weddle (William Morrow/HarperCollins).  He has been a freelance writer for many publications too, including Fuel and Los Angeles Times Magazine. Howard’s writing career has been sidetracked a few times over the years by the music business. Most notably, he managed the Cherry Poppin’ Daddies who sold over 2 million albums.  He is currently tapping into his lifelong obsession with science fiction and writing the SEEDER series. In October 2017, When All Else Fails, volume one in the series, was released online and in stores. The second volume in the series, Foreseeable Future, is due out in Fall/Winter 2020. http://www.howardlibes.com/  About EugCast: EugCast is a volunteer powered, cooperative chit-chat where we talk with people who may or may not live in the Eugene, Oregon area.

S1 Ep6: EugCast Episode 6: Howard Libes

In today’s “Am I Crazy or Am I Just Raving” Podcast, Thom and Howard continue their conversation, discussing Howard leaving the music business (for the first time) and moving to LA. Once in Southern California, Howard pursued his original profession of being a writer. He wrote for LA Times Magazine and worked as a collaborator and interviewer on a book, meeting with some pretty famous folks along the way. Realizing that he enjoyed his community of friends in Oregon, he moved back to Eugene and started managing a few NW bands. This stint in the music business lasted awhile, but Howard decided to get back to writing, completing a Science Fiction novel called “When All Else Fails”. He’d had this idea in his brain as a teenager and produced an amazing work-of art that is just the first in a series of books that he’s going to complete.

Episode 29: Howard Libes Part 2

Thom sits down to talk to his friend and mentor Howard Libes. Howard was the manager for the Cherry Poppin’ Daddies during the explosion of the Zoot Suit Riot album and the band getting signed to Mojo Records. Howard talks about why he ended up in Eugene and how the artist collective used to include a slew of anyone participating in creating art: Musicians, painters and writers. This got Howard into the musical circles with Steve Perry who formed the Daddies and went on to national success with his music. Howard tells some captivating stories and offers insight into the music industry from back in the 90’s. Thom and Howard begin the comparing and contrasting in this episode, but do most of that in Part 2 which will be out next week. Enjoy this fun and insightful look into the history of our extended Elemental Records family.
