LGM Podcast: Known Associates


Listen Later

It is difficult for me to characterize what Scott, Elizabeth, and myself discussed on the latest LGM podcast, better known as “the tightest 117 minutes in the history of podcasting.” Our writ was to discuss the latest Paranoid Style album, “Known Associates,” as well as to talk about Elizabeth’s contribution of liner notes to The Replacements’ Let it Be: Deluxe Edition and we did indeed discuss these things, but there were digressions. Some questions that emerged and re-emerged over the course of the pod:

  • What is your theory of album sequencing, in terms of where you put the best song and where you put the hardest song?
  • Is this album the Paranoid Style’s entry into the Yacht Rock genre?
  • Does the presence of a saxophone necessarily imply Yacht Rock, or is some sort of boat reference also required?
  • Is Van Halen Yacht Rock? Let’s phone a friend.
  • Do you have strong feelings about the remastering of Tim? Elizabeth would like to hear from you.
  • Are you offended by aspersions against Soul Asylum?
  • Did Rod Stewart sell out? Is selling out even bad?
  • How does Donald Trump feel about Kiss?
  • What’s the deal with authenticity?
  • What would say to Prince if he were using the urinal next to you? What would you say to Jon Langford?
  • Would you like to hear a funny story about Keith Richards and drugs? Or one about Wussy?
  • Did SEK go on a bender with Keith Richards? Did RFK Jr.?
  • What will it be like the day that Sir Paul McCartney leaves us?
  • A bunch of songs about Canadian songwriters, where Gordon Lightfoot is asked to be ranked by some metric?
  • Is Gordon Lightfoot Yacht Rock?
  • Is any expression of admiration for the Drive By Truckers excessive? The answer is no.
  • Are the DBTs Yacht Rock?
  • What is the demographic profile of an LGM podcast listener?
  • Would we mind more of Elizabeth’s review of rock n’ roll books?
  • Could Elizabeth be lured to Lexington for the Keeneland Spring Meet?
  • Could this podcast have been more effectively edited for content and coherence? Possibly.
