In episode 340 of the podcast, we discuss an old favorite: great opening tracks. How important is the first song on an album? More than you might think. A great opening track can set the mood, establish a sound, introduce a story, or grab your attention so completely that you know you’re in for something special.For the third time, we’re digging into some of the greatest album opening tracks ever recorded. From explosive introductions and unforgettable hooks to atmospheric scene-setters and songs that immediately announce an artist’s intentions, this episode celebrates the tracks that know exactly how to open an album.If you want to hear all of the album openers discussed over the life of the pod, you can listen HERE.

In episode 338 of the podcast, we take a look back at the way things were in music…..”Back In My Day”.We each bring a few scenarios to the table from the turn of the century: Was it easier to discover music? What was it like buying concert tickets? How did we find out about albums/shows? We tackle all of this and more.
