  • Awesome show……but

    Everything about this pod is great, but the latest ep with Larkin Poe was ruined by a click track running over top. As much as I am accustomed to the monotonous drone of a click in my ears, I’d rather have that when playing on a stage or recording. Please rerelease the episode so I can enjoy it because I love them!

  • A FANTASTIC guitar podcast!

    I love Shifty’s music and his fantastic guitar chops. He has had some great guests on the show and I really enjoy hearing them talk through how a specific lick on one of theirs songs is done. Shifty is pretty humble when he talks about learning the riff. However, he always kills it! I have narrowed down the list of podcasts I listen to. This is one is definitely a keeper and a real favorite. I look forward to each episode drop.
