Remembering The Shangri-Las' Mary Weiss with filmmaker Allison Anders.
When Paul invited the filmmaker Allison Anders (Gas Food Lodging, Mi Vida Loca, Grace Of My Heart) to remember the late great Shangri-Las lead singer Mary Weiss (who passed away on January 19th at the age of 75) we thought it was only going to be a 15-minute segment. In hindsight, this was always going to be the full hour. Enjoy! And Record Store Day co-founder Carrie Colliton alerts us to some important RSD announcements coming up at RecordStoreDay.com, and remarks on the passing of Melanie Safka who passed away on January 23rd at the age of 76). The Record Store Day Podcast is written, produced, engineered, and hosted by Paul Myers, who also composed the theme and selected interstitial music. Sponsored by Dogfish Head Craft Brewery, Tito's Handmade Vodka, RSDMRKT.com, and Furnace Record Pressing (the official pressing plant of RSD) Thanks to RSD co-founder Michael Kurtz.
