Yes we said "live" twice when we called this episode Top Ten SNL Live Performances, but it just kind of works aesthetically. As the kids say, don't "@" us. We are big and long time fans of Saturday Night Live over here at ATTT HQ, and the oompa loompas that run things behind the scenes have been clamoring for an SNL- themed episode for quite some time. Luckily we have someone in our orbit who is as much of a fan of SNL as we are. Enter Giovanny Blanco, host of the Truck Stop Mixtape show on Youtube, Facebook and Twitch. The fact that he has his very own variety show makes Giovanny a really smart choice to co-host a show about Saturday Night Live, as we highlight the greatest live musical performances from the show's 45+ year history. SNL live performances are a unique thing, and they've had some truly memorable ones over the years. Here are our faves.As promised, here is the Youtube playlist. Sorry for the varying quality:https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL2Sj57_93sSctujf1rXHdQ7uP3jv45sCCBig time thanks to Gio for this fun episode.

As a genre in the 21st century, Americana is as hard to pin down as some of the free spirits that inhabit its restless and ever-shifting boundaries. Elements of country, rock, blues, bluegrass, and folk combine to make a style that can only be described as Americana, but the true definition is this: Americana is the best of all American roots music. Singers, songwriters, record label heads, and 2 halves of an amazing LA musical power couple, Manda Mosher and Eric Craig know way more about this music than your humble host, so they are taking over the list this week, as they send us all to school in the soul-stirring world of Americana music from the last 20 years or so. Manda's music and everything Mosher can be checked out at her website:https://mandamosher.comHer new band and supergroup The Wild West has a website with all of their stuff too:https://www.thewildwestmusic.comStream this playlist on Spotify:https://open.spotify.com/playlist/4FNtIUY9W9iKEmoYXfWs2w?si=6356a05cdcaa4c11All ATTT things can be learned about at our website:https://alltimetoptenpod.com

When the artists composed the songs featured in this week's episode, they had no idea that their creation would eventually make television history and their song would be canonized as part of the opening title sequences of some of the greatest TV shows of all time.

There's not one or even 100 ways to describe the musical output of the one and only Elvis Costello. It's impossible to pin the man down, not that anyone would want to. Elvis has given us 31 studio albums and in over 40+ years has likely touched on every single style of music known to humankind, but always with impeccable songwriting and taste. Everyone cool wants to work with EC, and so many all time greats have done it. Over here at ATTT, longtime Pal O' The Pod Mike Axelsen is back in studio to pay tribute to the man and his many mood swings. Stream this playlist and check out the rest of the albums on Spotify:https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3ikAwv9nKadjMQ1QsPfivs?si=371149ce22b8420eCheck out Mike's Twitch stream at Scabby Rooster:https://m.facebook.com/scabbyrooster/?hc_location=ufi&comment_id=Y29tbWVudDoxMDEwNTMwMzc1MjMxNDc1NF8xMDEwNTMwNDQyODkyMzgyNA%3D%3D&locale=zh_CN

We'd like to take a moment to thank all of the listeners who stuck with us throughout this turmoil-filled month, and we're talking about the podcast. August has been heavy but also a ton of fun and as Crime Time The Theme Month winds down, we want to remind you all that sometimes the best criminals make the best musicians and vice versa. The people on this week's list are sometimes bad bad people, but they make great music. Super sleuth and sometimes library employee Helen Milner is on the case, helping us count down the greatest and most notorious criminal musicians of all time.Helen's main love is True Crime, and she runs the True Crime All The Time Book Club at the Altadena Public Library.

Dewey Cox is right. It's hard to go through day to day life knowing that there are so many injustices happening in the world. Sometimes we want to escape from the endless news cycle of rage-inducing stories of the downtrodden being trod upon by the powers that be. We here at ATTT are solutions-oriented, and we've found a way that you can cut loose and get lost in the music but maintain your eternal wokeness. Top Ten Songs About Real Life Injustices is definitely the heaviest of all of this month's episodes, but our man who can Joe Lavelle was more than up for the challenge of making a show about THAT topic entertaining. Here's part 3 of our 5-part series on crime, punishment, and hopefully someday, justice.Stream this playlist on Spotify:https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3MMzi3ezmtpl6YA3T35fiC?si=625065d6ea0a4799Get thee to alltimetoptenpod.com for everything ATTT:https://alltimetoptenpod.com
