If you want to make anything funnier, just add Lamont Price. It certainly made watching Godzilla a much more enjoyable experience, which is the point of much of this podcast. This one has been brewing for a couple of years, starting with a conversation we had after a more formal interview with Price when he organized the comedy portion of the Boston Calling festival a while back. We were going to talk about Ringo Starr as a drummer, the Beatles, and celebrate the history and vibe of P-Funk. Then I ran into Price at the movies when the Godzilla trailer was new, and we added that to the mix. Then P-Funk came to town and their farewell tour. We saw that, and then a couple weeks later, we made plans to see Godzilla and sit down immediately afterwards to talk about all of these things, just a few days shy of Ringo’s birthday. We also flesh out what a Rambo vs Terminator crossover would look like. <\/p>\n
I\u2019m glad we got all of these things in, but it doesn\u2019t even really matter what you talk about with Price. It\u2019s always an entertaining conversation. And Lamont will be back, hopefully around Halloween and Christmas, times of year that we both enjoy. Look for his Lamont\u2019s Boston segments on nbcboston.com, and find him on Twitter under @lpizzle<\/a> and on Instagram under @lpizzle12<\/a>, and on his site at lamontpricelive.com<\/a>. <\/p>\n This week\u2019s featured track is from next week\u2019s guest, Lucy Isabel. Isabel has a great backstory. A few years ago, Isabel left behind a degree in theater from Yale to move from New Jersey to Nashville and become a singer\/songwriter. Her debut full-length album, Rambling Stranger, came out in June, and has produced a couple of great tracks like \u201cHow It Goes\u201d and \u201cSomething New,\u201d which both have official videos now. My favorite song on the album is \u201cThe Between,\u201d which features the line, \u201cIs there something between hitting big and just going home broke.\u201d Isabel\u2019s got a great Americana sound, with disparate influences from Brandi Carlile to Judy Collins, and we explore that a lot more in the conversation next week. And there will be a couple of live tracks in next week\u2019s episode from her recent Boston show.
