2 Hours of John Lucero

John Lucero is the guest on this FOSFM podcast/radio show run by Mark “Fos” Foster of Heroin Skateboards. It’s a rambling, not quite technically adept affair, but it’s still interesting to listen to, especially when they talk about the ABD obsession in skateboard videos and the industry in general. I haven’t heard this show before, so I don’t know what the regular format is. This episode is 90% talk with the occasional record spun live. The music selection is good but bland. Not to say the music is bland, but it’s kind of like a compilation of songs you’ve heard a million times in the past, or on any “New Wave” compilation, with the exception of Lucero’s own joint venture label (Black Vinyl Ltd) release of Dime Runner. and a couple other tracks.  (my talk about the music in this post takes up a lot larger percentage of this post, comparatively.) The beginning is a little slow, but stick with it. There’s a lot’s of talk about Black Label influences, Lucero’s graphic work, and of course, skateboarding.

Thanks to Darren Clum for this, he’s been helping out with some Broken Kingpins action.
