“Just finished listening to The Opus episodes on Billy Joel’s “The Stranger.” I enjoyed them. But the last episode has multiple takes from the host near the end that weren’t edited out.”

“I was expecting an enthusiastic deep dive into ALL aspects of this album. Instead I found shallow waters.
Santana’s Abraxas is a dynamic, exciting, well-edited, and beautifully-sequenced album which has maintained its vitality for five decades. Host Jill Hopkins is the opposite. There’s a...”Read full review »

“Wow. I found this podcast from Andy’s post about the new season about Mobb Deep. As a huge fan I was 100% in. I’ve known and consumed Andy’s music and still do. This season was perfect. I just wish it could have been so much longer as it was so great. I’ve gone back and listened to 3 other...”Read full review »

“The Opus is my 2nd favorite piece of art/entertainment I’ve discovered since lockdown, and the 1st I came to through the podcast. Andy Bothwell blends information, insight, enthusiasm, and plain good stories to bring a truly complete analysis of these albums. I’m hooked, and would recommend any...”Read full review »

“Just getting into the Jeff Buckley season. It is so great to hear other people talk about one of my favorite albums/ artists. And to talk about him in a way that I can truly relate. Jeff was an amazing artist and a powerful band leader. The whole album is complete and timeless.”

“Blizzard of Oz
Is a good album but diary of a madman is his best
You are forgetting that the Mighty VH was the band and the debut album that created the 2nd wave of Heavy Metal”

“I am excited for a podcast that features three sharp women music critics delving into classic popular music. I’ve only heard the first episode and already I can see how this departs from what has been the norm. Fricke, Wenner, Christgau, Pareles, etc. have all had their say, and I’ll cast no...”Read full review »

“I love hearing in-depth explorations of an album. Immediately after hearing the first 2 episodes of The Opus, I went and listened to Blood on the Tracks for the first time in years.
Amazing work guys, keep it up!
Also please do Rain Dogs by Tom Waits!”
