85. THE JOHN LANDIS TAPES, VOL. 1: The Legendary Director Discusses The Movies & Music Of His Entire Career

Sure, it’s a music commentary podcast—but when you’re friends with John Landis, you invite John Landis on the show. Not to mention the man is one of the foremost music directors who ever was—simply for The Blues Brothers and Michael Jackson’s Thriller Video alone. For the next 6 months, there will be one Landis episode a month, as we dissect his entire career, Discograffiti-style. We’ll learn about the torrent of classic European films on which John worked in every possible capacity in the 1960s, his experiences attending both the TAMI Show and Monterey Pop, and finally the real story behind the making of his first feature film, Schlock, and the unexpected support from a truly massive celebrity that wound up kick-starting his career. Next Week: Part 1 of a soul-baring Interview With SERGIO DIAS From OS MUTANTES!
