Sweetman Podcast # 243: Murray Cammick

Welcome to episode 243 of Sweetman Podcast with support from our sponsors – T Leaf T and Yeastie Boys

Now – as you probably know, as well as the usual platforms (this site, soundcloud, iTunes/Apple) you can now get to Sweetman Podcast on Spotify – follow it there and have it saved in your Spotify library.

Music Industry Legend Murray Cammick is the guest this week. Where to start with Murray…well we started by working out we’d only met very briefly a couple of times and we’d argued online about whether Bobby Womack still had it or not. Then we went right back to Murray first connecting with music – talked through his days at Rip It Up and founding Shake magazine too; from there to DJing, starting record labels, and his own photography – including his current exhibition which brought him to Wellington, here at Photospace Gallery.

A lot of NZ music history in here – the labels Southside and Wildside, the Rip It Up magazine and Shake as well, stories about hanging out with bands like Def Leppard and meeting Bob Marley…we talked a bit about interviewing – the good, the bad and the ugly.

It was great to finally get Murray’s story down on tape – or at least the version he told to me. I know he’s been interviewed a lot over the years but I’ve long wanted to have him as a guest on the podcast. Finally the timing was right.

I hope you enjoy this. I did. It was great to get the chance to sit down and talk to NZ Music Industry Royalty. Here now, my conversation with Murray Cammick, ONZM
