We love it wen a musical legend visits the We Talk Music podcast and that’s the case on the latest show as we welcome East Bay Ray of Dead Kennedys fame on to tell us about his latest project The Killer Smiles.

Topics covered on the show include:

• How the songs on the album came about
• His influences, and we chatted about Scotty Moore and Elvis’ The Sun Sessions album
• The band and what they bring to the table, plus whether he looks for bandmates that have similar taste or different
• Ennio Morricone and his influence in music
• Why he didn’t want the Dead Kennedys or punk listed on the press for the album since he didn’t want people to compare it to DK
• How the band is different from DK
• A small life cycle of the DK albums and what influences they had musically
• How the internet changed music and the way it’s produced
