This week, we talked to Jay Gonzalez (solo artist and member of Drive-By Truckers) about the Rockpile (Nick Lowe & Dave Edmunds) British TV Doc, Born Fighters. We discuss the Pub Rock scene, Edmunds & Lowe’s early bands, Rockpile getting lumped into the New Wave Scene, Stiff Records, Nick Lowe’s incredible ability to write unforgettable pop songs, recording on 4-track vs. larger studios, RockPile’s amazing quips, playing country fairs, the amount of incredible access given to the filmmakers in this documentary, the debatable merits of Blue Nun Wine and we also have our first Revolutions Per Movie one act-play using dialogue taken verbatim from the climax of the film!

So let's get into our cups on this week's episode of Revolutions Per Movie!
