Latest Episodes:

069 The Mothers of Invention - Freak Out! Oct 01, 2018

Show notes

Often cited as one of rock music’s first concept albums, the album is a satirical expression of frontman Frank Zappa’s perception of American pop culture and the nascent freak scene of Los Angeles. Here comes the real psychedelic music.

068 Paul Revere and the Raiders - Midnight Ride Sep 27, 2018

Show notes

Midnight Ride marked just about the pinnacle of Paul Revere & the Raiders’ and most of the music on Midnight Ride was written and credited to the entire band, but it’s hard to even get opinions about this album because it seems to be the perfect example of an average album.

067 The Mama's and the Papa's - If You Can Believe Your Eyes and Ears Sep 24, 2018

Show notes

In the spring of 1966, If You Can Believe Your Eyes and Ears might have represented a genuinely new sound, but we mostly agree that aside from the two singles the material is pretty thing. We don’t want to be anyway near this “in crowd”.

066 The Kinks - Face to Face Sep 20, 2018

Show notes

One of the premiere English rock band’s of the british invasion in the 1960’s but they were banned from the US for years. Are they better than the Beatles? Let’s talk Kinks.

065 The Monks - Black Monk Time Sep 17, 2018

Show notes

You want to talk about an interesting band. You want to talk thinking outside the box, heck outside the country. You want to know avant garde rock starts. Lets talk the Monks!

064 Bob Dylan - Blonde on Blonde Sep 13, 2018

Show notes

After difficulty finding the right chemistry in the New York Columbia Studio A , Dylan took the advice of Bob Johnston and moved the sessions down to Nashville with professional session musicians and we get another side of Dylan.

063 The Byrds- Fifth Dimension Sep 10, 2018

Show notes

We have a lot of Byrds to review in this book and the group seems to unanimously agree that this uneven record should have been left out.

062 Fred Neil - Fred Neil Sep 06, 2018

Show notes

Moody, bluesy, and melodic, Fred Neil was one of the most compelling folk players to emerge from Greenwich Village in the mid-’60s.

061 The Beach Boys - Pet Sounds Sep 03, 2018

Show notes

Pet Sounds has gone on to be hailed as one of the greatest albums ever and is widely considered to be one of the greatest and most influential albums in music history. It was a slow burn for this album to get it’s credit and we all love talking about it.

060 The Beatles - Revolver Aug 30, 2018

Show notes

Geoff Emerick is quoted saying: “I know for a fact that, from the day it came out, Revolver changed the way that everyone else made records.” The group has different opinions about “using the studio as an instrument” and what this album means to the evolution of modern music.
