GGACP celebrates the birthday of Brooklyn-born songwriter-recording artist Henry Gross (“Shannon”) with this ENCORE of a 2021 interview with Henry and British-born singer-songwriter Roger Cook (“Long Cool Woman in a Black Dress”).

Also, Casey Kasem blows his cool, George Martin teams with Peter Sellers, Henry becomes the youngest artist to perform at Woodstock and Roger writes a jingle that becomes a worldwide sensation. PLUS: Sha Na Na! “I Was Kaiser Bill’s Batman”! The comedy of Jackie Vernon! Steve Coogan sends up Blue Mink! And Henry and Roger remember the late, great John Prine! Learn more about your ad choices.
