this week's episode of my podcast is gonna be one of my all time favorite most underrated 60's bands that I consider very very good. in this week's episode, I"m gonna be ripping apart one of their hit songs that might not be as big or as memorable as their most well known song, but it's still very good and I hope you'll find it as good as I did when I first heard it next week I'll dive into their history and talk about who wrote their songs and the band members that went through the band and the history behind the band's label and the evolutions of their sound that they went through in the mid 60's. here's the link to this week's song just in case you wanted to hear it again:

in this week's episode on the 60th episode of this podcast I have a very very special guest on to my podcast. to say he's a living legend is an understatement, but that definitely does not undermine his incredible resume as a producer/engineer in the 60's. but he is definitely a very interesting musical person from this era and in this week's episode I talk about his amazing career and the bands that he has worked with in the past. Topics in this interview include how he became one of the first American Producers to move from America to the UK to produce over there and the behind the scenes details on the records that he produced back int he 60's all the way up to what he is currently up to right now in 2019. it is an honor to have him as a guest on my podcast and I feel very fortunate to have gotten the opportunity to talk to him on my show. here are the songs that we talk about on the show just in case you wanted to listen to them:

today's episode is focused on a track from the early 60's, and today I break the song down and show you guys what makes the song super good as far as the lyrics and the overall energy of the track (I also show you what makes the song super relatable today even though the song is almost 60 years old), and I also talk about the history behind the track including the behind the scenes details on the recording session of the song including the musicians, the backup singers, and the recording studio the song was recorded at as well. I also go into a little bit on the history behind the time period this song was recorded in (the early 60's) I will go into more detail on that in another episode of this podcast as well.

this week's episode is all about the history behind last week's song and band (which was the Moody Blues Go Now). in this episode I talk about how the band was formed and how they were able to make a drastic transition with their overall sound from their first album to their second album, plus the origins behind their first hit song (like who wrote the song and the who recorded it originally and who produced it originally). I also talk about how the band got their name and who were some of the people in the band that would later go on to do much bigger and better things and who produced their version of Go Now. here's a link to last week's song just in case you wanted to listen to it again:

This week's episode is on one of my favorite British Invasion bands that is very well known and also very interesting, and I'd figure I would do another British Invasion band for this podcast since it's been a while since I've done a true British Invasion band for this podcast. in this episode, I go super in depth with one of their biggest hit songs and really rip it apart and show you what makes it really good. next week's episode is gonna be a good one because in that episode, I'm gonna talk about the history behind this band and in that episode, I'll talk about the evolutions this band went through when they were big in the 60's and how they were able to develop somewhat of a cult following in the 60's and the story behind this week's song as well. here's a link to this week's song just in case you wanted to listen to it:
