1106 - Sheryl Crow, Rik Emmet of Triumph, Big Country and more!
Episode 6
Friday, 12 December, 2025
The music industry has a history of not being fair to its artists. Christopher and Tom begin this episode by talking about artists who did not get the credit they deserved. Little known names like Martha Wash, Frank Sampedro and Rory Dodd get a brief, but well-deserved moment in the spotlight. Also this week… an excellent 2008 interview with Sheryl Crow, in conversation with Marilyn Denis and Roger Ashby. This conversation gets quite deep – as it covers her music, her fight with breast cancer, standing up for her beliefs and her very public breakup. A lot of info in a small amount of time. Then, we have a follow up chat with Rik Emmet of Triumph… Tom spoke to Rik a few months ago about his song “Hold On” becoming the Music Monday anthem for the Coalition For Music Education. But there are parts of that interview that you didn’t hear, including a very funny tale of the time when something went terribly awry during their stage show in the early days. And we finish things off with a band that only had a brief moment in the spotlight, but their sound was just epic. We’re talking about Big Country. We feature a 1986 chat with singer Stuart Adamson and drummer Mark Brzezicki from the band.
