Description
Over the last couple years I have documented the released date of thousands of albums and every day on social media I post about those albums. I call these album anniversaries. I have had a couple different formats on this show but, this podcast is a chance to take a closer look at some of the albums on my calendar. I'm a fan of all genres but tend to focus on ska, punk, and alternative rock, and a variety of Christian (CCM) music albums.

Well this is a special one for me. I love B.U.C.K. and I loved them even more when they changed their name to Buck Enterprises and released Business As Usual in 2001. We are joined by Seth Mercer who was the lead singer for the group from that album on. Unfortunately the album is not available on streaming but it can be found here on YouTube.CalebTheSpy on TwitterCaleb_The _Spy on InstagramThe Album Anniversary Podcast on FacebookThe Album Anniversary Podcast on PatreonThe Album Anniversary Podcast on YouTubeCalebTheSpypodcasts@gmail.com
