I'd Buy That For A Dollar

We conclude our focus on the year 1972 in music with our Halloween episode! To celebrate the holiday we experience the haunted sounds of the fourth album from Bahamian folksinger Exuma. Enter... if you dare.  

Guest Steven "Plastic Crimewave" Krakow joins us as we continue to look at the year 1972 in music. On the turntable is the fourth album from British folk rock band Steeleye Span. We examine the group's approach to traditional folk music as well as detail the background of the tracks featured.  

Co-host Jeremy brings a left-field selection for our latest look at the year 1972 in music: The Ventures. Best known for their instrumental hits from the 1960s, we look further into the surprisingly long and influential career from these surf rock pioneers.  

We kickoff season 4 with a celebration of the year 1972! Co-host Sean drops the needle on this hard-to-pin-down offering from new-age jazz outfit the Paul Winter Consort.  

For our final ReWind of the season break, we revisit our episode on the Environments series. Learn more about these fascinating audio artifacts and their creator, Irv Teibel.  

With the recent passing of jazz pianist Ramsey Lewis, co-host Jeremy decided that we should revisit one of our season 2 episodes where we covered the jazz legend. This bargain bin staple finds Lewis at the peak of his career and this episode finds the podcast beginning to gel into its current form. 

For our first ReWind of the break, we shake the stardust off this season 1 gem. Listen to us gush over outlaw country legend Willie Nelson and his turn to pop standards.  

Join us as we look back on season 3, highlighting our favorite albums and featuring musical selections we missed from some of them. We will return with season 4 on October 4, 2022. Episode cover artwork by Ellen VanderMyde.  

Guest Beau Gordon joins us for our season 3 finale as we look at the career of home recording pioneer and pop song craftsman Emitt Rhodes. From raw deals to personality flaws, we investigate why Rhodes' music isn't better known.  

Lance Barresi, the owner of Permanent Records, joins us to discuss the 1969 debut album from horn-powered rock outfit Chicago. We pay special attention to lead guitarist Terry Kath, with some surprising innovations for a group that many associate with their later power ballads.
