This week marks three years since the world went into lockdown following the global outbreak of COVID-19. I've been thinking about that strange and surreal time quite a bit recently, and now feels like the right time to share this series of interviews that I did during the first lockdown period for my supporters over on Patreon. I spent a whole month uploading a new episode every weekday, and for each episode I was joined by past podcast guests and friends of the show. We spoke about our mutual lockdown experiences and attempted to make sense of everything that was going on at that time, and each guest handpicked a five-song playlist to the end of the world, hence the name of the series: Soundtrack Apocalypse. I've renamed them The Covid Tapes here. I hope you enjoy this peculiar little trip down memory lane. It still feels like a bit of a dream/nightmare doesn't it?!? Thank "whoever" it's all over now. I'm very thankful to be working again. And I'm extremely grateful to everyone who supported me during this time, especially the Patreon crew without whom I never would've made it. Thank you.

201: Alan McGee

One thing you rarely hear in the music business, is an honest account of how a band ACTUALLY got signed.  Loads of acts are happy to talk about themselves and their music, but often their biography cuts from "we met in high school and started jamming"....to "....and then Sony released our album". I don't know about you...but it's the bit inbetween that interests me! So when I met a young musician who had been signed by the music industry legend Alan McGee, I jumped at the chance to interview him! In this episode, I chat to musician Arwel Brown about his band Young Garbo and how they signed to the new incarnation of Creation Records. In the process, we end up mentioning Adele, Oasis, Scott Weiland, Teenage Fanclub, Primal Scream, Charli XCX and the concept of a rock star. Here are some links to things that Luke recommends, including all of the bands in which Arwel Brown is currently involved with! https://linktr.ee/whereisMYhitsinglepodcast * Hi, I'm your podcast host Luke Jones. I'm a music and podcast producer and I'm also available for hire.

S1E57: Alan McGee

Alan McGee – Founder, Creation Records &amp; Discovering the World’s Biggest Band, Oasis Having managed bands such as Primal Scream, The Jesus and Mary Chain, The Libertines, Sean Ryder and many more, Alan McGee is hugely influential in the music industry.  More than that however, he is credited for having discovered and then signed Oasis.   Alan is responsible for bringing the most important rock band of the last generation to millions of fans around the world and at one time was Number 1 in 32 countries at the same time! 4 Episodes in and we are genuinely excited to bring you this podcast. Alan McGee was the founder of Creation Records and personally discovered and signed Oasis. For two big Oasis fans we were in our element, as Alan discussed his life, living to excess and the small matter of the whole business operation, which, often gets overlooked! Alan’s colourful life is the subject of Irvine Welsh’s new film Creation Stories, written by Irvine Welsh and directed by Nick Moran. Alan explains why Ewan McGregor couldn’t have played the role of Alan and instead his former Trainspotting cast mate, Ewen Bremner was offered the part! Creation Stories | Official Trailer | Sky Cinema - Bing video Alan discusses his life, his tough upbringing and how that shaped the adult he became, fuelling his ambition, drive and determination to head south to London and “stick it to everyone for a very long time”. Ben and Simon discuss growing up and following Oasis, Simon, the gigs as a punter and Ben as part of the team that once booked Noel Gallagher! We analyse what it might take for a working-class boy with £12 in his pocket living in a squat hundreds of miles from home to eventually sell the company he created for £20m. This is episode 4, and we thank you all for your comments and reviews. We have listened and made 2 changes from your feedback, the opening of the show is more informal and we have extended our discussions post interview, so please, keep the suggestions coming. So, without further ado, expect a story of a colourful life with even more colourful language as we bring you the legend, Alan McGee. Enjoy the show!

#206 Alan McGee (Music Executive)

Alan McGee is one of a kind. His tough start in 1970s Glasgow set him up for a tumultuous, glorious and legendary ride at the top of the 1990s and 2000s music scene as the head of Creation Records and the man behind the biggest band in the world at the time, Oasis.Primal Scream, The Jesus and Mary Chain, Teenage Fanclub and My Bloody Valentine, to name but a few, followed suit.I sit down with Alan as his movie biopic, directed by Nick Moran and written for screen by Irvine Welsh, 'Creation Stories' comes out to dig into what he describes as 'bonkers brave f**k you creativity.This is must listen, packed full of advice about making bold decisions and getting behind them, when they feel right, taking risks and not shying away from controversy when it comes to creativity.The podcast is supported by Illustration X (http://illustrationx.com) and The Association of Illustrators (http://theaoi.com)Creation Stories is out now on Sky Cinema.
