(Now Playing) Bobby Gillespie

Feb 18, 2008

Ian chats with Bobby Gillespie about psychic dessication and stuff. In this edition of Soft Focus, Ian talks to Bobby Gillespie of Primal Scream . Bobby details his musical pedigree, from Altered Images hanger-on, to replacement-bassist for the Wake, to standing JAMC drummer. They speak about the mythologies of rock music and the perils of nationalism. With Ian Bobby rallies against me-me-me-culture, why it’s important to be an extroverted musician, and Bobby tips us off to the other meaning of “Bomb the Pentagon.”
