So far I’ve listened to two: The making of, “I see a darkness”. That was so greatI will listen to it again. And I also listened to the making of “Houdini” which was good. Ultimately I guess it depends on the interviewee on how good the the episode will be. But, I can’t wait to listen to them...Read full review »

The best episode is the one about The sophware slump by granddaddy. I’ve listened to it like 4 times. All the episodes are excellent but people continue tho claim other eps are superior

This is the reason I got into listening to podcasts! Paying attention to “lesser know” but amazing and inspiring indie rock bands!

This is amazing musical oral history — I’ve listened to the Mission of Burma and Violent Femmes episodes. They are both really well done, commentary and history on each track, and make me appreciate the music even more than I already do. Kudos to the host — who always stays behind the scenes and...Read full review »

I really appreciate that the person making this excellent podcast gets out of the way and lets the work, and the artists, speak for themselves. They are doing a lot of work and not making it about them- much appreciated.

You know how when an album’s great you can’t pick your favorite song? You keep listening and you keep changing your mind. Same with Life of the Record. Is it the NEU! episode? Mission of Burma? Low? Elliott Smith or Heatmiser? OK, both of them. Luna? Yeah, Luna. But what about Big Star? Just...Read full review »

I live hearing this kind of stuff and this podcast delivers. I’m having fun listening to the artists describe their memories about making the albums and then going back and listening to the album to hear some of the nuances mentioned. Started with Built to Spill’s “Perfect From Now On” and am...Read full review »

The episode on One Year is absolutely essential to anyone interested in Colin Blunstone. Such a lighthearted and unpretentious interview. So informative about the piece and also about him as an artist. Great stuff!

Beautifully produced and edited. Artists talking about, and playing, their art - what could be nicer? Thanks for the Grandaddy episode.

In-depth stories from the artist, Brendan Benson, bring personal memories from the start of his career. I’m so happy to learn these cool details. Such vivid words bring me back to the 90’s and my 20’s🤍💜🤍
