Mixtape Assembly is a new podcast in which guests choose songs that are special to them, and tell the stories behind their choices. Each episode is produced and sporadically hosted by Hartley Lloyd Pack.I had to start the series with my uncle Dave, more fully known as David Walsh, as it was his incredible storytelling over the years that inspired the idea for the podcast more than anything else. In the 60's Dave worked as an improv comedian, performing at the Second City in Chicago and the Establishment club in London, rubbing shoulders with the likes of Peter Cook and Spike Milligan. During his times in Chicago, Dave was lucky enough to meet a whole heap of his heroes, including Howlin' Wolf, Muddy Waters, Martin Luther King and Muhammed Ali. In later years, Dave moved into the murky world of justice, working as a consultant paralegal for a criminal defense firm and spending far too much time in prison. It has, however, thrown up many a good anecdote, including a poignant tale involving the late, great, John Lennon, which Dave shares with us on his Mixtape Assembly......Tracklist:1) Howlin' Wolf: Wang Dang Doodle2) Muddy Waters: Mannish Boy3) Alvin Cash: Doin' the Ali Shuffle4) Jimi Hendrix : Like a Rolling Stone (Live at Monterey)5) Glen Miller: In the Mood6) Billie Holiday: I Can't Get Started7) The Beatles: A Day in the Life8) W.B.
