Welcome to Album Clash! We start a new clash this week, and to bring our live albums season to a close we have an absolute corker, as two soul legends James Brown and Otis Redding go head to head to find out who comes out on top.
First up it’s James Brown, with his 1963 breakthrough ‘Live at the Apollo’ - another of those albums which regularly features towards the top of ‘best live albums’ lists, and set the stage for JB to become the Godfather of Soul.
Despite the unusual brevity of this week’s pod there’s still plenty of us to get through as Tim reveals the lengths to which James Brown went to get this album made, and how some of the contributing artists felt sidelined by their lack of billing on the album. As ever when we go through a live album there’s some interesting track choices to get into and, in a rare outbreak of informative content, Kev tells us the story of how James Brown averted a riot.
In the latest instalment of ‘can’t get you out of my head’ Kev explains how an online grocery order had him singing a song by one of music’s most disgraced artists (to put it mildly), and Tim gives a shout to the first new material for five years from one of the pod’s favourite bands.
We also have another round of our quickfire game ‘keep or throw’ in which Kev attempts to exact revenge for being forced to part with one of his favourite albums…
Also this week:
This. Is. ALBUM CLASH!
***If you like what you've heard in this show, why not subscribe to the pod? You can also listen to our entire back catalogue (and with two weeks to wait between new episodes you frankly have no excuse not to). PLEASE tell your mates to check us out. Alternatively, if you think we're shite, tell your enemies to listen - we honestly don't care as long as we get those sweet sweet clicks. Finally, if you are so inclined, we would be incredibly grateful if you could give us a (preferably 5-star) rating and leave a review on whichever platform you get your pods. It makes it easier for others to find us and it means a hell of a lot. Thanks for listening!***
