It's been a hot minute since the boys did a "pop" episode, but given this very special installment is devoted to jazz-rock gods of the seventies Steely Dan, maybe this doesn't count. The Dan's somewhat controversial 1980's sign-off gets a good look i... more

"High Concept" is sometime used as a derogatory term for movies that are more about a saleable idea than a good script. This installment of the podcast is definitely "high concept," but we can assure you, it still isn't particularly saleable. Struck ... more

Yep, it's one of those "what did Pat find at the record store?" episodes, with an emphasis on lesser known artists (unless the guitarist from Tortoise is a secret superstar). It's a testament to jazz's recent love affair with vinyl that the newest al... more

  • A mixed bag and sometimes - Where’s the jazz?

    Firstly it’s great that these 2 guys are putting lots of time into a regular Jazz podcast and sticking with it for quite a long time.

    Unfortunately for my own taste this podcast tends to focus WAY too much on “modern” jazz and in some cases music that has no right to even call itself jazz and tends to treat jazz from the “golden age” - say pre 1970’s - almost as an afterthought.

    Too often I’ll hear albums and artists that I have zero interest in having episodes dedicated to them whilst the nam... more

  • A podcast for all.

    Though I'm a jazz novice, I'm still able to comprehend and roll with a lot of what Mike & Patt discuss. I love how they come to the episode with knowledge, opinions (often contrasting), and witty banter. Well worth the listen- even if youre like me and not familiar with the genre.

    Found this podcast recently and have listened to only a few episodes, but am already getting a lot from it. The Ornette Coleman episode is excellent and just what I needed to start diving deeper into his work. Thanks guys!
