  • Most recent format is great!

    Love them reviewing albums (Steely Dan: Goucho, Aja. Joni Mitchell: Blue. Fleetwood Mac: Rumors). They give you all the inside baseball music stuff that goes over my head but they break it down very nicely. Super informative BUT also an enjoyable duo to listen to! Super great chemistry! You can't teach chemistry and these 2 got it!! Keep them coming!
