            We’re finishing off season 8 with a real banger! 

First up is one of the best interviews from the archives – a 2007 chat with Mike Reno of Loverboy. Mike is a gifted storyteller as he explains the origins of the band’s name, why a legacy band creates new music, and why they were embraced by MTV immediately.

            Mike also talks about their late bassist Scott Smith, who was declared missing when he was swept overboard by a large wave while sailing off the coast of San Francisco.

            Mike then tells us the stories behind some of Loverboy’s biggest hits, including “Turn Me Loose”, “Working For The Weekend” and “The Kid Is Hot Tonite”.



            Following the Loverboy chat, we have an amazing series of clips from Chuck Berry – the very first inductee into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. Chuck breaks down a number of his biggest hits – and then veers off in a strange direction. But Chuck has a lot to say and it’s all good.  Great to have so much audio from one of the pioneers of rock and roll.



            Next up is Tom’s very weird chat with Johnny Rotten of The Sex Pistols.  Johnny talks about The Pistols’ legacy and why life with Public Image Ltd was a much more rewarding experience.  Johnny also uses the opportunity to bash the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.  Strangely, Tom actually forgot we had this interview in our archives!  It’s definitely worth a listen!



            And for our podcast listeners, Christopher has a very special tribute to the late Burt Bacharach, the musical genius behind dozens of hits that spanned decades.  Bacharach passed away on Feb 8, 2023 at the age of 94.



Famous Lost Words, hosted by Christopher Ward and Tom Jokic, is heard in more than 70 countries worldwide and on radio stations across Canada, including Newstalk 1010 Toronto, CJAD 800 Montreal, 580 CFRA Ottawa, AM 800 CKLW Windsor, Newstalk 1290 London, 610 CKTB St Catharines, CFAX Victoria, AM1150 Kelowna and 91x in Belleville.
