THE ACTION’S ALAN “BAM” KING INTERVIEWED ON 88.3 SOUTHERN FM

The Action 1967: A very sharp Bam King on the right.
Here’s an unexpected treat, a radio show (now available as a podcast) devoted in its entirety to Action guitarist Bam King.

Nick Black from Australian station 88.3 Southern FM calls Bam at his home in New Zealand for his Purple Haze Archive show. Across two hours they cover Bam’s career from Sandra Barry, The Boys, The Action, Mighty Baby, Ace, right up to his current band Juice On The Loose playing plenty of tracks along the way, not always the most obvious either; it’s wonderful to hear things like “Come Around” and “I’m A Stranger” broadcast on the other side of world.

Bam sounds in fine fettle throughout. Worth a listen, certainly for the first hour at least, here.

I spotted this over at The Mod Generation which often flag up decent stuff.
