This week Rich Zahniser formerly of The Hippos joins us. Rich tells us about the band’s early days, recording in The Beastie Boys’ studio, life on the road and how The Hippos got signed to Interscope Records. We also discuss the album cover for Heads Are Gonna Roll, recording of the album and early reaction to its 1999 release. All this and Ska News and our Ska Picks of the Week. Rich Zahniser;https://www.primeroyalstudios.comThe Hippos: Heads Are Gonna Roll Vinyl https://interscope.com/products/the-hippos-heads-are-gonna-roll-lp-interscope-com-exclusive?srsltid=AfmBOoo490mZtjlarOQxS4ekTtY7pJ9gjItOU6R_tUvkF0FTO7BIUI5VOn The Upbeat:ontheupbeatska.comSka News……-Abraskadabra On March 21 abraskadabra released a new song called No Strings Attached. https://open.spotify.com/album/2R3BO51lmiNLzZ8qJ8r43D?si=CCDj1WI4RR6WxNORpXPeEg-Joker’s Republic On March 21 Joker’s Republic released their cover of Lit’s My Own Worst Enemy.https://open.spotify.com/album/6Tcr1GlMox5UJ3VVrNoTiH?si=DDqI7wpWR_GUn6GGj02n8A-The Kilograms On March 20th The Kilograms dropped a new song called Battles . https://open.spotify.com/track/7dpdey94k4VLMydkNvPrgW?si=z90rowwITge2SqRRL9aT8A&context=spotify%3Aalbum%3A2Qz7dqhzS2Pg8T6Ntmm1vBSka News 2025 Playlist: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/0CLg5HvXyFxP6hQxQi9Qfs?si=fmVCy1bORNGmlle3FA4-uw&pi=u-gkNw56cQRWeaSka Picks of The Week 2025:https://open.spotify.com/playlist/4bzFTOq9JPpWk1KSEg2nqE?si=Dh0zXfgHSeqfVKsYs0HRJw&pi=u-bIgOFTm_QpaGSka News Theme by Lab Brats:https://labbrats.bandcamp.comMain Theme by Millington: ⁠https://millingtonband.bandcamp.com/music
