Listened to Colin molding and have to say you came across as big fan. That and your honest inquiring lead him to reveal some things I don’t know. The garage thing. lol.
Just shy of getting him to admit that if XTC got together and toured they would each prob make 2 million$ in a summer. Even as a nostalgia tour.
Initially I was drawn in to the guest appearances by the 80s Southern Jangle Pop guests, but now I trust his taste that I know I’ll find something worthwhile in each episode regardless of the guest. - Jefferson Hart
Learning so much from Marc and his guests! Especially the old original (mostly) guys. The intros are though provoking. The talents stand for themselves. And Marc doesn’t interrupt his guests. A+
These are such good conversations about the creative process. Mark comes prepared and gives his guests room to tell their often-remarkable stories. 10/10
Mark Caro’s immense knowledge of pop, along with his positive, enthusiastic personality makes for an excellent podcast. He ties things together in a fascinating way. And I enjoy British Folk-Rock, so this was a wonderful starting point. Thanks, Mark, keep it up!
