Another person who is calling Never Let Me Down a rotten record WHEN THEY HAVE NEVER ACTUALLY HEARD IT.

Great discussion but did I miss the bit where you talk about Anthem Of The Sun or was it edited out?

Thank you for discussing Steve Reich’s Music for 18 Musicians - one of my favorite large-scale works from the Minimalist canon. I also love John Adams’ Shaker Loops, but it’s Harmonielehre (particularly the first movement) that always blows me away. And if (post-)Minimalist composers have successfully integrated the Eno Music for [...] aesthetic, Michael Torke has to be at the top of the list. Background music that isn’t background music to a T (pun intended)!

Excellent listen

Thanks for answering my question ❤

I love the breath of genres you cover and the intelligent discussion.

A little late getting to this episode, but enjoyed it as ever. Agree about the later Prefab Sprout albums, too; deserve more credit.

This is my favorite podcast now. Love how we they talk about rare or overlook bands. I’m Always looking for something different to listen to.

Keep up the good work guys. Great podcast.

So many great albums! Confirms the depressing state of mainstream radio today. Thanks Steven and Tim. 😎

Keep it going steve and Tim, love the podcast

Thanks for coming back from hibernation guys! Great episode and fascinating conversation - I'll be on the lookout for the playlist to supplement the "albums of immediate interest" which I'll be hunting down.

I have found my people. Love this podcast.

is it only 12 eps ? or is my pod app broken ?

I was also looking forward to hearing thoughts on Prefab Sprout's epic album from this year. Wonder why it didn't make the cut. Too much time dwelling on Stone Roses, perhaps?

really enjoyed this. thanks

great podcast

Not a classic year, but loved the discussion. Thanks Steven and Tim.

Love the show and your insightful discussions! I have learned about (and subsequently listened to) so many fascinating new-to-me artists and/or albums. Wondering when there will be a discussion of Judas Priest or a deeper dive into Heavy Metal.... Looking forward to the next episode sans drinking my ears away. 🍻

Great job gentlemen! A lot to unpack in this episode, and that's just the way I like it. For what it's worth, Tim sounds less like he's in a barn than he got kicked out of his flat and is coming to us from a YMCA locker room.
