This is by far my fave show rebroadcast via local college radio in Winnipeg Canada. Keep up the amazing work Phil!
Inspires me to practice guitar. Great music from all over the world with fun and informative commentary.
Always had a love for 1960’s garage rock. In my tweens I was into doo wop and rockabilly, in the army I listened to that and 60’s music. I will continue to be a listener. Even though Phil Grey had a weird obsession with Trump. Is there no other modern politicians that he can have voiced on the show?
Doesn’t matter if you are a 60’s garage fan or not; the quality of this podcast will blow you away. Interesting histories, great commentary, humorous clips, and Fantastic Music. Open your mind and expand your cultural literacy at the same time! Give it a listen!
All gratitude to Mr Grey.
