A Missed Opportunity

“I have only listened to a handful of episodes, so perhaps I should probably listen to a few more before commenting; but like the previous reviewer I see this is a great idea that could’ve been done so much better.
While I disagree with some of your likes and dislikes (e.g., Side 3 of Goodbye Yellow Brick Road is the best side of the album and Sweet Painted Lady is probably one of Elton’s and Bernie’s best songs ever), it really has nothing to do with that. The commentary just isn’t very insightful nor well researched at all.
With Peter Gabriel (“Car”) you start off by making a thoughtful observation about his successfully transitioning away from progressive rock, but then ramble on nonsensically about “his moving away from prog and the remaining members of Genesis moving away from prog, so why didn’t they just stay together”…blah, blah, blah…as if that was the reason why Gabriel left the band in the first place. A little more deeper dive into the music and a little less random commentary would serve this podcast well.”

“The guys bring a discussion that you who like to join while bringing new albums to my ears. I have the book and I have ITunes but this podcast brings them together for my commute. Difficulties loading a few shows but the ones that work are great”

“I really like the idea for the podcast, going through the 1001 albums book, but these guys say so many inaccurate things throughout these episodes. Really needs to be better researched.”
