This week, we play an encore presentation one of our favorite episodes: New Zealand musician Murray Grindlay, known to many as "Monte Video" from his 1982 international smash hit "Shoop-Shoop, Diddy-Wop, Cumma-Cumma, Wang-Dang" as Monte Video and the Cassettes is our guest. Grindlay, however is well known for his work across the musical spectrum u New Zealand and Australia. He fronted The Underdogs, led other bands, released solo music, composed musical scores for movies and has built a successful jingles business (for which he earned a Lifetime Achievement Award in 2012).Murray discusses the early days with the Underdogs, the New Zealand music scene in the 60s and the 80s, the creation of the Monte Video character and how he not only fooled the Australian press into believing Ringo Starr played drums for the his band, but gaining the attention of David Geffen.
