- 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 stuff that goes over my head but they break it down very nicely. Super informative BUT also an enjoyable duo to listen to! Keep them coming!

United States24 days ago - The Best
This show is so fun. It's a great way to get turned onto new music, and, what's maybe even better, to fall back in love with music you already know. Adam and Peter are so knowledgeable and their ears are unbelievably sharp. Jazz, pop, art rock, I'm here for all of it - you've got me listening to bands I never had any interest in before now. Keep it up, y'all.

If I was interested in pop or hip hop I’d be listening to another podcast!
Update after ‘Bad’ episode : Why, why, why waste a whole episode on a third-rate
album? Are you really running out of good jazz albums to talk about?
Update: this show has really gone downhill and is now just two guys talking about pop albums they liked when they were younger. I guess they are trying to build their non-musician, nostalgia audience. How this will help their jazz education business, I don’t know.
Apple Podcasts5jalmbergUnited Statesa month ago - Adam Maness listening parties are the best
Adam Maness’ love of music is infectious. This is a great way to discover new music.
Apple Podcasts5JoeMac86United Statesa month ago - A new window into classic albums
I’m giving this 5 stars because I love it. What a great way to bring people into jazz and advanced harmony. I like how you include extended selections of the music, and how each episode makes me go back and listen to the full album over and over. I listened to all your Stevie Wonder episodes back to back, then listened to all the full albums back to back. Just two suggestions: 1) Cut the cussing, please — I personally don’t mind, but it makes it so I can’t safely share this with family or liste... more
