After our last bonus episode, we find ourselves on much more familiar ground with the Swedish pop sensations Abba.  There are tales of love and divorce - and that's just the band's personal history!  A sprinkling of their major UK hits amongst some minor chart entries and deep cut album tracks make this CD, for Neil anyway, a thoroughly enjoyable one.

The Joel's revenge is another you tuber's song. What does Neil think this time.

Neil also refers to his YouTube channel.  You can access that here. Or search for Pockenrop.

As ever, listen out for the musical clue to the next podcast.  See you in a fortnight.

Welcome to our latest bonus episode.  This time, Joel is very much taking the reins and introducing Neil to the album Different World by his favourite artist Alan Walker (see past Joel's Revenge segments).

It's a quite fun episode with a few diversions and Neil even manages to bring in a reference to his favourite artist.

Effectively, it's an entire episode consisting of Joel's Revenge.  What does Neil think of the album - you'll have to listen to find out.

Into double figures with the band Madness.  I think it's safe to say that this was hard work.  Joel didn't enjoy the majority of tracks - but is he wrong (yes - yes, he is!)

There is a revenge that also doesn't go quite as planned and the announcement of a forthcoming YouTube channel - Pockenrop.

So, sit back and enjoy (or endure) Episode 10 of Generation Mix.

It's episode 9 and we can't help but wonder how many of you were blindsided by the clue.  Yes, the clue was a Meat Loaf song, but we are listening to the songwriting talents of Jim Steinman.

This episode features songs performed by Bonnie Tyler, Celine Dion, Boyzone(!), a cast of children and, yes, a whole lot of Marvin Lee Aday - AKA Meat Loaf.

This is a fun trek through Jim Steinman's career, that kicked off with the Bat Out Of Hell album alongside Meat Loaf and saw him score 3 number one hit singles as a writer in the UK.

We conclude, as ever with a Joel's Revenge.

Please remember, we have a facebook page where you can come and debate the song choices and our opinions and tell us any classics we might have missed.

This episode sees Neil and Joel take a plunge into the music of Christian Rock and Rap band - DC Talk.  This may well be an unfamiliar artist to many of you, so sit back and pop the headphones on and discover something new.

Joel of course has his revenge to exact.

The episode begins very differently to normal, with a short memorial message, before the format you've come to know and, dare we say it, love(?) resumes.

Head on over to the facebook page to chat about the episode.

P.S. There may be a few ads at the end - gotta pay for this somehow.

Episode 7 already and we reach The Kinks.  There are some great songs on this podcast and it's one of Neil's favourites.

Sitting On My Sofa are Lola, Victoria, Arthur, a Wonderboy and a Well Respected Man.

Joel, of course, has a revenge to enact.

We are now paying for hosting so please, please, please leave us a good review wherever you get your podcasts and tell people about us.  

Our next episode is somewhat obscure, so don't knock yourself out trying to work out who we are listening to in a fortnight.

We welcome a guest this episode - another Neil - who is a Deacon Blue fan.  This means a longer podcast as there are three opinions to contend with!

This episode is a real deep dive into the music of the band with few hits under the microscope.  Joel has a revenge as ever for his Dad.

The sound quality isn't great as we used Zoom to chat to Neil.  Sorry about that.

Find us on Facebook folks and debate the discussion.

Ladies and Gentlemen.  We interrupt our regular programming for a bonus episode. 

Joel and Neil listen to Welcome To The Black Parade album by My Chemical Romance.   Joel gets slightly freaked out by a couple of tracks and one of Neil's old work colleagues gets a shout out.

Joel requested this entire album play through - but does he like it? 

We have a facebook page.  Join us to debate the album and maybe vote on the next bonus ep.

Episode 5 sees Joel and Neil consider the hitmaking machine and social phenomenon of the late 90's - The Spice Girls.  Joel originally asked for this so you can bame him.

Unlike other CDs in the series, this is an all-singles hit-packed episode.  But is every one a gem?  Find out with us. 

Joel of course concludes our podcast with his revenge.  Did Neil like or loathe it?  There's only one way to find out.

Join the conversation on facebook.

Episode 4 finds Neil and Joel listening to a selection of Erasure songs.  There are hits, album tracks and the odd B-Side.  The conversation and opinions flow freely.

We'll be on facebook soon with our own page.
