Healthcare worker, DJ, and record collector Mark Weathersby joins us to talk Johnny Mathis, specifically the crooner's soulful 1973 comeback album I'm Coming Home. The IBTFAD crew are forced to take back some dismissive comments they've made about the artist in previous episodes.  

DJ and music supervisor Taylor Rowley returns to the program to highlight yet another thrift store staple—singer-songwriter Carole King. We take a look at Wrap Around Joy, a record that often gets lost in the shadow of the ever-present hanging Tapestry.  

Co-host Jeremy blasts off with Buffy Sainte-Marie's Moonshot. Viewed in its day as a disappointingly mainstream effort from the uncompromising folksinger, the album has fared better with time.  

Guest host Wes Wheat returns to the podcast with a 1980 Smokey Robinson solo outing and helps the team traverse Robinson's miraculous career.

DJ and musicologist Greg Caz returns to the show to give bassist and vocalist Michael Henderson his due. As we discuss the disparity between Henderson's early avant-garde work with Miles Davis and his later R&B solo records such as Goin' Places, we discover that the two phases have more in common than one might think.  

Musician Chris Brokaw stops by with a copy of Chester & Lester, the first collaboration between guitar virtuosos Chet Atkins and Les Paul. As we look at the careers of both artists, we also illustrate the importance of this unique pairing of two towering figures.  

Co-host Peter tells the tale of the Crusaders, the unsung backbone of popular music for nearly two decades. Meanwhile, co-host Jeremy converts to smooth jazz, or rather, jazz-funk.  

Co-host Jeremy takes us on a trip into the world of a blossoming Graham Nash. On his debut solo album, we find the singer-songwriter maturing both personally and politically at the height of his success.  

Our good buddy Jake Watkins drops in to get hyped with the crew on this choice selection from the catalog of pop rock masters Daryl Hall & John Oates—Private Eyes. We offer many reasons as to why they are one of the greatest duos in history.
