@45RPM Vigilantes Of Love’s Welcome To Struggleville

The Vigilantes of Love really started to "click" with the release of their 1994 Capricorn Records album "Welcome To Struggleville." In anticipation of a forthcoming full conversation with that band's founder, Bill Mallonee, we offer this special look at the album that is currently seeking funding via Kickstarter for a special vinyl re-issue.    If you're already familiar, then you know exactly how important this album is. If not, take ten minutes to hear from an artist Paste Magazine ranked as one of the 100 greatest living songwriters as he reflects on an album that should have been his band's breakthrough.    Find more information at BillMalloneeMusic.com and find the Kickstarter campaign HERE.    If you would like to support the show, please consider joining our Patreon community or dropping us a one-time tip and check out our NEW MERCH!  

Om Podcasten

Music industry veteran, author, artist, and producer John J. Thompson hosts conversations with a diverse panel of artists, songwriters, producers, and industry innovators who seek the deeper resonances in music and culture. Classic and contemporary music is explored for signs of life, light, and beauty on the ”Jukebox” feature as well. Knowing that all music is spiritual, can we sing along with the good, the true, and the beautiful in ways that make us better neighbors, more compelling artists, and richer reflectors of the light by which we live and move and have our being? Let’s try.
