Episode 343 - Larry Livermore (The Lookouts, Lookout Records, The Potatomen)

Hats off to Larry, because he is giving us a monster of an episode! Join Damian as he sits down with Lookout Records, Lookout zine & The Lookouts band impresario: LARRY LIVERMORE!!! From answering John Lennon’s calls at White Panther headquarters, to Lookout’s accidental funding, to how the weed/acid divide led to strife in the scene, to the hippies in SF finding punk:
