#193 Michael Alago (A&R Executive)

A&R Executive and all-round music industry legend Michael Alago joins Matt for Episode 193 of Life In The Stocks to discuss growing up in New York City and his stories from running around town going to shows as a kid - where he saw bands like the Ramones and Dead Boys in their formative years - to his break in the music business signing Metallica and White Zombie, the death of Cliff Burton, surviving AIDS, getting clean and sober, and so much more. If it's rock 'n' roll stories you want, it's rock 'n' roll stories you'll get, as this guy has them in abundance. Be sure to check out the documentary about Michael entitled Who The Fuck Is That Guy?, and pick up his new autobiography, I Am Michael Alago, which is out now.
