House O' Lucy (Feat. Mary Mancini)

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In episode 1, host Mary Mancini interviewed Don and April Kendall of House O’ Pain to get their personal stories and talk about the origin of the Lucy’s/House O’ Pain collaboration. Then Don and April wanted to turn the tables and interview Mary, who resisted at first but is glad she finally agreed because, she said, “After 30 years of friendship we’re still learning new things about one another.”</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Don Kendall adds: “Mary Mancini has done a wonderful job of sharing the stories of the kids and caretakers of Lucy’s, but what about Mary? We’ve known her forever, but have never heard her own story on how she came to be Lucy’s Record Shops’ heart and soul. We felt it was long past the time for her story to be told and we’re excited to share this episode with everyone!”</span></p>

The Vinylist Feat. Doyle Davis

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Doyle Davis' business cards read “Vinylist,” which is so perfect since he’s been a champion of vinyl as a music delivery system his whole life - as a kid picking through his parents’ collection, as a used record buyer at The Great Escape, as a Lucy’s Record Shop customer buying every Guided By Voices record he could get his hands on, and as the co-owner of Grimey’s New and Preloved Music, a Nashville institution he</span> <span style="font-weight: 400;">helped build from the ground up.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In this episode Doyle talks about what it’s like to run a record store, seeing Rodan play a house show, Yo La Tengo soundcheck, and other tales from the live indie rock scene of the 90s, the records he bought at Lucy’s that he’ll</span> <span style="font-weight: 400;">never</span> <span style="font-weight: 400;">ever</span> <span style= "font-weight: 400;">sell, and how h</span><span style= "font-weight: 400;">e’s been able to build a successful community-oriented record store from the ground up.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Doyle has seen a lot of changes in the industry and he’s managed to weather them with creativity, humor, and a wonderfully infectious positive attitude, all while making vinyl the star of the show.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Instagram:</span> <span style= "font-weight: 400;">@thedoyledavis /</span> <span style= "font-weight: 400;">@grimeys</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Facebook:</span> <span style= "font-weight: 400;">@doyle.davis.75 / @</span><span style= "font-weight: 400;">GrimeysRecords</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Twitter:</span> <span style= "font-weight: 400;">@thedoyledavis /</span> <span style= "font-weight: 400;">@grimeys</span></p> <p><strong>Episode Music</strong></p> <p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xm7bwTdaQP0" target= "_blank" rel="noopener"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Lambchop with Yo La Tengo (excerpt - Autumn Sweater)</span></a></p> <p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zC12Hi2sDKA" target= "_blank" rel="noopener"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Pavement - Summer Babe (Live Brixton Academy, London, December 14, 1992)</span></a></p> <p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fdsFUSXIGh8" target= "_blank" rel="noopener"><span style="font-weight: 400;">The Pretty Things - The Journey</span></a></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Follow us / Say hello</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Instagram:</span> <a href= "http://www.instagram.com/lucysrecordshop"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">@lucysrecordshop</span><span style= "font-weight: 400;"><br /></span></a></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Twitter:</span> <a href= "http://www.twitter.com/lucysrecordshop"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">@lucysrecordshop</span></a></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Facebook:</span> <a href= "http://www.facebook.com/lucysrecordshop"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">/lucysrecordshop</span></a></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">This show is brought to you by Give Forty the Finger Productions and part We Own This Town, a podcast network of original entertainment and documentary content.

Fun Girls From Mt. Pilot - Feat. Cat, Chris, Donnie, & Troy

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">There is no other band more legendary or more inextricably linked to Lucy’s  than the Fun Girls From Mt. Pilot. Chris Fox, Troy Pigue, Charles “Cat” Tidball, and Donnie Kendall dressed in women’s clothes when they played, which  caught people’s attention, but it was their songs - short bursts of frenetic pop-punk energy and clever lyrics - and their stage antics that earned them a devoted following.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">To really understand how incredible they were you have to talk to the people who were at their shows. They say things like</span> <span style= "font-weight: 400;">“mind-blowing,” “transformative,” “the s**t” and “the Fun Girls changed my life.”</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In this episode we cover the band names that could have been, what happens when you ask a highly skilled drummer to join a band with “the worst guitar player he’ll ever play with,” shopping for their outfits, the award winning box set, why they’re hated in a couple places in the southeast, and of course their onstage antics, including the infamous 328 Performance Hall show (think confetti, flying toast, a fake security guy, 2 french maids, and a couple of dancing donut-eating stripper cops who ended up rolling around on stage in their underwear.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">–</span></p> <p><strong>Episode Music</strong></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Fun Girls -</span> <a href= "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eIBtHtTV1ww"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Hold a Grudge</span></a></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Fun Girls -</span> <a href= "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hL-_xIVMMVM"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Your Girlfriend Hates Me</span></a></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Fun Girls -</span> <a href= "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UN8Lc0G1_eY"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Monkey Flips</span></a></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Fun Girls From Mt.
