Episode 170: Robert Howard / Dr. Robert - The Blow
Monkeys

On this episode of the Paul Weller Fan Podcast, I am joined by
Singer, Songwriter, Multi-instrumentalist and
Producer, Robert Howard,
aka Dr. Robert of The
Blow Monkeys.

We take a journey through his youth and his discovery of punk,
politics and The Jam whilst living in Australia in the 1970s...

He returned home in 1981 and formed the band, leading to so many
fabulous albums and singles - their debut Limping for a
Generation, that breakthrough LP Animal Magic and their hit
singles Digging Your Scene, It Doesn't Have To Be This Way,
Choice - right up to their brilliant 2021 album release Journey
To You...

On the podcast, we hear so many personal stories , never told
before, about his friendship and collaborations with Paul Weller
- whether it's recording at Solid Bond, being part of Red Wedge,
an Honorary Councillor for the final The Style Council live
shows, co-producing Dee C. Lee's Slam Slam project and playing on
each others early solo albums.

We also chat about Rise Up Singing - the Monks
Road Social collaboration that saw Paul and Robert come together
for a new song together in 2022...
