After almost two years at the crease, we at In The Past: Garage Rock Podcast are proud to celebrate reaching  our first century: 100 episodes. And we've never missed a week since we started!  To mark this achievement, we've selected four songs to discuss our own dogged determination: two of them are 80s anthems, and two are garage rockers from the snarling 60s. The usual crucial digressions and textbook musical theory are in play. Get a delicious beverage and come celebrate 💯 with us!! Nothing's Gonna Stop Me Now - David Pomeranz (0:00) It's Been a Long Journey - The Roots (39:08) There's No Stoppin' Us - Ollie & Jerry (1:07:30) Here to Stay - The Mal T's (1:45:26)

The usual format is this: we pick a song from the 1950s or 1960s (genres range from garage, R&amp;B, Girl Groups, Motown and Doo-Wop), and discuss three versions of that song, or sometimes we just play a song we haven’t heard before and react to it. We’ve covered classics like “Little Bit o’ Soul” and “Psychotic Reaction” to rarities like “Jump and Dance” by the Carnaby, and “Ringo I Love You” by Bonnie Jo Mason (aka Cher). Our aim is to discuss what makes these songs interesting, ineffable, or even intolerable. We place special emphasis on the “moments” in these songs where, perhaps, a new interpretation will emerge from. A close look at song structure is also present in our discussions. If that sounds academic, maybe it is a little bit, but we like to keep the analysis in the spirit of the songs we speak of – which means we drink some spirits (for Erik, it’s bourbon, for Weldon, it’s Stambecco) – and that means by the third song, things can get a little wild. Basically, we talk about rock!
