Tommy Keene! Episode 9
Any podcast that has a piece on the late great Tommy Keene gets 5 stars for sure. I thought I was the only one who heard of him. Great tune writer and great guitarist too. He played guitar for Paul Westerberg’s tour circa 1996. Saw them at the Opera House on Queen. Thanks guys. Loved this ep.
