Description

Have you ever dismissed a band or singer as mediocre (or worse) only to later realize they were amazing and you misjudged them?


It can be a blow to the ego to miss the genius that others hear - especially if you're a professional music critic or musician. But this week, your "How We Heard It" hosts put their pride aside and confess to overlooking some of the most-respected names in popular music.


They explain how they underestimated the artists and what finally happened to bring them around to the truth. Believe it or not, these A-list artists include the Beach Boys, Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen, Prince, Taylor Swift and more.


But before you shame your humble podcasters, look at yourself: Have you, too, been too quick to blow off acts you learned to love?


It's OK, we're all friends here.
