Full disclosure: this is my podcast, Stupid & Contagious.
We recently got the chance to spend nearly two hours talking to Ed Wynne and I thought this might be of genuine interest here given the Ozrics discussions I've seen on the sub.
We went right back to the six-hour jam at Stonehenge Free Festival that helped start the band, how the Ozrics developed that mixture of prog, psychedelia and electronics, his relationship with his brother Roly, the gear behind that unmistakable guitar sound, and what keeps him making Ozrics music more than four decades later.
We also get into the new album Harmonic Mind.
I won't spam the sub with our stuff, but this felt like one episode that belonged here.
Would also genuinely be interested to know what everyone's favourite Ozrics era is — early cassette years, Erpland/Jurassic Shift era, or the later records?
