Episode 94: Michael Monroe (Hanoi Rocks)
Manage episode 356614203 series 2435519
I didn't discover Hanoi Rocks until around 1986-87 or so but once I did, they became a huge favorite of mine. It's hard to believe that it has already been 40 years since the release of Hanoi Rocks' sophomore album, Oriental Beat. 2023 doesn't just see Oriental Beat turning 40, we will see a much anticipated re-mix (or re(al)-mix as the band calls it) and for the first time nearly 30 years will see a vinyl release via Finnish label Svart Records.
I had the honor of talking to legendary Hanoi Rocks frontman Michael Monroe about the re(al)-mix release of Oriental Beat as well as his 60th birthday concert that featured a reunion with the original Hanoi Rocks featuring original drummer Gyp Casino. We also talked about what it is that keeps him going and other cool stuff.
Enjoy, y'all!
