In the days following last month’s Record Store Day extravaganza I spent hours digitizing a number of titles I purchased that day. I also went through my archives to grab tracks from the many reissues that came out. A couple of weeks later, I was all... more

With this being a holiday weekend, I was determined to do a very listener-friendly “fun” episode. Of course, when I say listener-friendly, I’m not talking about the sort of nonsense on commercial radio. Not, what that means for The Ledge is the sort ... more

The “covers” folder is full. Overfull, to be honest. So tonight’s show is a supersized show of great remakes, and many of them are quite surprising. The Tubs covering Metallica? Social Distortion doing Chris Isaak? White Fence remaking Simply Red? Th... more

On last week’s new release episode I highlighted an entire section to the new album by The Sleeveens. This week I do the same thing to my good friends High On Stress, but instead of adding my own description of how great they are I’m going to leave i... more

    Been a fan of this podcast for years. Scott is an ocean of knowledge about all things music. I particularly love the year-end-review. I always discover something new that I’ll hold on to for years to come. Rock on buddayy! 🤘

  • I love this podcast

    As a rule, I’m not a fan of music podcasts. And honestly, I’m not a fan of all of The Ledge podcasts either. I hate punk. So why the 5 stars? Hudson dives deep and the breadth of his library is insane. Also, no commercials! I skip anything that announces itself as punk, and blast everything else, dancing around my digs like a kid. The Ledge has been my COVID exercise for forever.

  • Good stuff!

    I came here looking for a Replacements podcast, but found so much more than that! This podcast is great for binge listening, but could still use a bit more Replacements!
