PAT THOMAS - Who The Heck Is Pat Thomas?

Though his main gig nowadays is as a producer for Fire Records and Earth Recordings, Thomas has also been the author of several outstanding counterculture historical books, including his biographies of The Black Panthers (Listen Whitey!) and Jerry Rubin (Did It!), as well as an anthology on Lou Reed (My Week Beats Your Year). His work as a reissue producer is staggering- his mile-long listing at All Music Guide includes releases by Tim Buckley, Sly Stone, Dr. John, Waylon Jennings, Brian Eno and Roky Erickson. Upcoming projects include books on comedian Ernie Kovacs, Van Morrison and Allen Ginsberg (based on the poet’s archives that he curates for Stanford University).--- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app--- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/nmdjpresentsflyonthewall/message
