Michael Alago
Legendary record executive Michael Alago talks to Matt about signing Metallica to their first major label deal, causing near riots with John Lydon (AKA Johnny Rotten), making Nina Simone's final album, and how Patti Smith helped him through one of the darkest moments of his life. Michael is the subject of the now re-released documentary "Who the F*&$ is That Guy? The Fabulous Journey of Michael Alago" (available on Amazon, Youtube & Google Play), and the title of his memoir "I Am Michael Alago: Breathing Music|Signing Metallica|Beating Death" proves to be a perfect roadmap for he and Matt to discuss both the extreme highs and lows of his life working with some of the most influential musicians of our time.
