  • Rare opportunity

    Thrilled to find this podcast, to hear these r&b greats. Solomon Burke, what a hoot, such spirit, amazing stories about coming up. Have to go listen to all the songs after hearing these supreme artists talk. Otis Redding plane crash--Burke came so close to being in that plane.

  • Music History Project

    I wanted fewer talking heads and more music examples. I sampled different episodes and was disappointed when someone talked about a recording effect or instrument sound with no illustration. After a while, the hosts’ voices got on my nerves.

    A lot of interesting information but it’s supposed to be about music. Let’s HEAR it.

    Incredible show about the history of music with interviews and archives from NAMM. Great stories from people who lived in the era.

  • Kind of disappointing

    The subject matter and interviewees are both incredible, but the hosts are very disappointing. The interview responses are not engaging, the transitions between interview sections are awkward and often seem to cut off interesting conversations, the research details are lacking, and so on. Trying my best to stick around but losing faith.

  • Great content, production needs improvement

    As far as content goes this podcast is a must for any music lover. NAMM has done a wonderful service to the industry by producing this.

    Unfortunately the final production needs some work. Pops and static are unavoidable on older interviews recorded on mag tape but these aren’t removed and sometimes blow your eardrums out (particularly on the Elvis episodes). Also while it is unsurprising that the original interview process did not emphasize recording the interviewer’s voice, the interview ques... more

Q: What role do you think music played in the Civil Rights Movement?
Music was fundamental to the Civil Rights Movement, embodying unity and strength among activists.
EP. 141 - Bass Players
Q: So what’s the deal with bass amps?
The biggest thing with bass amps is the capacity to just have the onboard subwoofer, especially if you're a bass player that also doubles the synth.
