Happy New Year! so this year will bring LOTS of changes to this podcast, so please be prepared for the fact that you may or may not be able to listen to this podcast for free anymore, as it comes at a time when I will REALLY need your financial help to keep this podcast going, so if you can't afford to listen to this podcast, I will understand, but please be mindful that I have new financial responsibilities not only with this podcast but also in my life in general, so please be mindful of that & understand that I would like to not have to charge you to listen, but I just need income for this podcast to keep it going from here on out. If I could I would continue to do this for free but I just can't anymore. But anyways, for now, enjoy these episodes that for free at the moment, and I will let you know as soon as that changes. so I decided to start off the new with something REALLY unique and different and just not like ANYTHING I have done before on my show. I mean I have covered this genre on my podcast before, but this record was so WILDY provocative and unique that it spawned a whole new genre of music that would go on for decades to come after this record came out and it spent it's weeks on the chart. Next week we will dive into the history behind this band and also talk about what other things the members of this band would wind up doing after this song came out. here's the link to last week's song just in case you wanted to listen to it:
