I'm the lucky guy who not only got to talk to not just one, not just two but three members of the legendary Boston reggae band Pressure Cooker! I spent most of my time talking to Jeffrey Eckman (Drums) and Robin Teague (Tenor Saxophone) about the formation of the band as well as their concert backing up some first wave ska luminaries. We are eventually joined by Adam Dobkowski (Guitar) and talk a short bit about the writing process that Pressure Cooker employees. We then shift gears to talk a bit about how their using kickstarter to raise money for their newest album! Only $800 left to go at the time this episode is getting posted! Not to shabby! We also discus a bit about the ups and downs of the ska scene in America through out the late '90s into the Twenty First Century. There's lots of laughing, you've been warned!

The intro for this episode is “One Kind of Love" also by the Georgetown Orbits, off of their album “What She Wants”. The outro bit is taken from a live version of their song "What She Wants".
