WELCOME TO SUMMER! It’s warmer, the days are longer and the 4th of July is upon us! In this episode, Mike and Nick will put together the ULTIMATE 4th of July Playlist!! This is not a list containing renditions of ‘America the Beautiful’, though…This will be FILLED with songs that remind us all of days of summer - ridin’ in the car with the windows down, BLASTING some awesome tunes, driving somewhere you shouldn’t go...to do things you shouldn’t do...with people you shouldn’t do them with! :-P

We will be giving a Record Store Day #2 recap as well as touching on new releases for this week…and, of course, our standard segments – ‘Dis-Covered’ and ‘THIS SONG SUCKS!’

Record Store day 2 is June 18th, and Mike and Nick give a preview as to what is being released and share what they are looking forward to - and what releases are being pushed even FURTHER out this year! UGH!!!! Darn supply chain!!!

As usual, they will be discussing what they are currently listing to, some other non-RSD releases coming out, 'Facebook Jail', another entry for 'DIS-COVERED' and, of course, everyone's favorite segment 'THIS SONG SUCKS'! Subscribe, and tell a friend...or a few!!!

*** Special Guest Alert!!! *** Mike and Nick tackle a different topic - bringing to light some of their fav bands that are decidedly NOT of the mainstream!!! If these bands were a play, it wouldn't Broadway or even "Off-Broadway"...more like, OFF OFF OFF Broadway in the basement of a Knights of Columbus play! Ok, maybe that is exaggerating, but they are bands that are important to a smaller group of fans. We will be joined by guitarist ADAM PHILLIPS (ex-Pro Pain, Indorphine) in the discussion! Join us!!!

We also give a NAMM 2022 recap and also feature our regular segments including:

- Preview of Friday's releases

- DIS-Covered

and of course...

- THIS SONG SUCKS!!!

A movie is not a movie without a soundtrack. Some soundtracks rise to the level of 'Classic', and Mike and Nick discuss some of their favorites in this episode of Cover to Covered! We will also give a small NAMM preview for all you musical instrument gear nerds as well as our standard segments "What are you spinning?", "New release preview", "Dis-Covered" and our most popular segment - "This Song SUCKS!"

Mike and Nick tackle the topic of 'Perfect' albums - those albums that are just AMAZING from start to finish and you never wanna lift the needle except to flip sides again and again! Mind you, this will not be a comprehensive list, and your mileage may vary, but these albums are tried and true and provide some of the best entertainment for the money...

Also included are the standard segments "What are you spinning?", "Dis-Covered" and our most popular segment - "This song SUCKS!"

Mike and Nick discuss what record collectors refer to as ‘GRAILS’ and 'HOLY Grails' of vinyl.

These are sometimes different for different people (personal 'Grails'), and ANYONE with any of the 'HOLY Grails' in their collection have something VERY special of BIG value!

Also included are the standard segments "What are you spinning?", "Dis-Covered" and our most popular segment "This song SUCKS!"

Mike and Nick are back, and this time they will be discussing 10 albums that should be in ANYONE'S collection! NOTICE I DID NOT SAY TOP 10!! This isn't that kind of list, and really, those lists are never right. These are just 10 amazing records from EACH of is that you need to have in your collection!

We will also preview the new releases coming this Friday, and all standard segments will be here, too: "What are you spinning?", "Dis-Covered" (a cover tune that is as good if not better than the original), and of course, "THIS SONG SUCKS!"

‘This Song Sucks!’ – the boys chose Cheap Trick’s “Gonna Raise Hell” from their 1979 CLASSIC album, Dream Police

‘Dis-Covered’ – ‘Blinded by the Light’, by Manfred Mann’s Earth Band - written and originally recorded by Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band…and it’s all summed up with a SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT!! HEARD HERE FIRST ON MUSIC: Cover to Covered! But, you have to listen to find out what it is!
