“It’s a joy to listen to - and as others have said it’s often the ones who’s music you are not into that are the most entertaining. Who knew Joe Elliot and Brian Johnson would be amongst the best guests - and Johnny Marr could do a months worth of shows.”

“Absolutely brilliant, so many diverse guests with brilliant anecdotes that you won’t hear anywhere else. Please can I request you invite Gary Wallis on! Also I like the interjections from Guy and Gary, makes it feel more like a chat down the pub than an interview.”

“Great podcast, with an immense reach and eclectic selection of highly influential musicians, producers and sound connoisseurs. Always a treat to listen to. Thank you, for all the inspiration. I just wish Guy and Gary were less typically ‘British’ in their constant need to throw in silly anecdotes...”Read full review »

“Loved this show since it started and always fantastic angles on their chats with guests. But. hate to be anywhere near negative but, Guy is starting to grate with constant interruptions or trying to hard to thrown in funny’s which have become almost a hectoring towards the guests.”

“I do like this podcast but Guy needs to learn that interviewing involves asking somebody a question and then letting them answer. So often the interviewee is interrupted so that Guy can give his personal spin on whatever the question was about. He also answers his own questions as well as...”Read full review »

“Just listened to the Brian Auger episode and found it so irritating when Guy Pratt keeps endlessly butting in & talking over the guest, he even tried to answer a question posed to the guest until Gary chastised him . He loves the sound of his own voice, which leads to Pratt ruining a number...”Read full review »

The behind the scenes folks, producers and promoters, are generally much more engaging and informative than the musicians.
Surprisingly, amongst the musicians the...”Read full review »

“Stumbled across this podcast after seeing Nick Mason’s Saucerful of Secrets tour in Oakland (brilliant!), Guy and Gary mentioned it from the stage. I probably never would be aware of it if it wasn’t for that. So grateful to have found it!
They’re both very interesting on their own, but where...”Read full review »

“Enthusiastic conversation with and by industry people.
Amusingly, Guy has spent years backing Dave Gilmour but thinks guitarists can just "sing and play right off the bat". In reality the bass is handed to the vocalist when a band forms to save finding one and also keeping staff costs...”Read full review »

“I found this late and have been loving catching up - still 18 episodes to go.
Great insight as it’s rockers talking to rockers. Have found myself dipping into music again or finding new music like Gary’s “waiting for the band” and Def Leppards Yeah album. Great job Gary & Guy”

“Gary Kemp is a fantastic interviewer. So is Guy Pratt when he allows the guests to talk. Just a real shame there is so few women. I have counted twelve in a hundred and twenty four episodes. If they aren’t careful they’ll have to call it The Cockenteurs.”

Hosted with humour and knowledge by Gary and Guy, whose rapport and respect for their guests results in a brilliantly laid back yet fascinating series of podcasts.”
