Mr. Jones & The Previous

SYLVIA BLACK was chosen to be a guest on this show by a dream and a synchronicity when IRA MARLOWE was unable to attend. Her Pop Oracle session with host ANDRAS JONES is full of laughter and insight with discussions about philosophy, Andy Dick and space travel. Musically it’s a very Jones-y show that features […]

 From ANDRAS JONES: Elmore Leonard had a phrase he used in his books. He employed it more than once. Old Elmore would describe a character, one you knew he liked; usually a woman who was harder than she was given credit for; or a guy who was smarter than you thought he was as, […]

From ANDRAS JONES: As we got toward the end of the session with SYLVIA BLACK we found ourselves, as often happens, scrambling to find our last guest to ask a question.

 From ANDRAS JONES: KITTEN NATIVIDAD is SYLVIA BLACK‘s landlord. She’s also a screen legend from the wrong side of the tracks which fits our noir theme nicely. Of course, the wrong side of the tracks is where you meet some of the friendliest people. Kitten is just such a person. You can tell by […]

Lydia Lunch

Sylvia Black

 From ANDRAS JONES: LYDIA LUNCH has middle finger for all the electronic voting machines that flipped or refused to count votes. For all the closed polling places and corrupt secretaries of state. For all the openly racist candidates and the people who support and or tolerate them. Lydia has a noir connection with SYLVIA BLACK. […]
