  • One of the best music podcasts ever

    In these fiscally challenging times, the world needs a hero to show them how to get their jollies, but, like, frugally. Great conversation, a little history, and a reasonable shopping list.

  • Came for the Kenny Rankin, stayed for the obscure vinyl!

Just like the great surprising albums that were discussed in this podcast, the show was a surprising breath of fresh air, as music enthusiasts/podcasters can be generally obnoxious, dismissive, elitist & frustratingly shallow. The 3 gentlemen who run this ... more
