  • Great podcast

    I love almost all genres of music, especially from the time frame discussed on this podcast. I enjoy their discussions about the artists, etc. I will say the music can be a little loud compared to the volume of the guys’ voices. Just a small complaint, no big deal. I’d love to hear them talk about some more Metallica alums.

  • Wish you knew more than me

    I just listened to you guys talk about Days Of Future Passed by the Moody Blues. I wish you knew more than me about the Moodies. However, they never played with an orchestra on this album. Did you guys even mention the Mellotron?

    This podcast is a great listen. I really enjoy the commardarie amongst the hosts. It feels like hanging out with friends discussing music, and it seems I finish each podcast learning something new about an artist or song I didn't know before. Also made turned me onto artists I either previously didn't know, or only knew based off of radio singles. Keep up the great work guys!

    I really enjoy listening every week. I never really learned anything about the bands I listened to while I was growing up. So it’s fun to reminisce with the music every week and learn something fun about what was actually happening with the bands. Thanks for all the time and research guys. It’s really fun!
