POD STEWART! What are your most favorite and least-loved songs on Rod Stewart's Every Picture Tells A Story? Since three of us hail from 1971, Dan chose this classic Roderic record that divided the hosts with its boozy, bluesy goodness and raspy crooning. We recently finally got into the 70s with Schoolhouse Rock but this is our most classic rock episode to date! A must-listen for fans of the phrase “a long time”. Hear it at WeWillRankYouPod.com, Apple, Spotify and your local donut shop....

ECHO & THE FUNNYMEN!  What's your most favorite and least loved song on the Bunnymen's Ocean Rain? Jim picked this 1984 classic for us to rank and it's a lovefest, trust me. Lots of fun memories of seeing Liverpool's finest live, having too much Echo ephemera and meeting someone who helped make the record so beautiful. Up just in time for the band's 40th anniversary US tour! Listen at WeWillRankYouPod.com, Apple, Spotify and your local Liverpool Football Club outlet store. FILE...

What's your favorite and least favorite song on Ride's album Going Blank Again?  Sam chose this 1992 classic so the boys get swooshy, gaze at their shoes and climb mountains of guitar pedals to rank the tunes by a band that didn't get their due on this side of the pond. And I quote: "AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH......" FILE UNDER/SPOILERS: Shoegaze, alternative, Ride, Andy Bell, Mark Gardener, Laurence "Loz" Colbert, Steve Queralt, Oasis, Leave Them All Behind,  Twisterella, Not Fazed, Chrome...

Best. Live albums. EVER!!!  For our 15th episode, we voted for a wildcard theme that turned out to be the most diverse set of music we’ve ever discussed. Turned out being a blast discussing the history of live recordings, concerts we went to that ended up on albums, our parents’ influence AND our very own top five (and least) favorite live albums of all-time. We hate to spoil our answers because they’re all so random but we can safely reveal that the Beatles, Smashing Pumpkins, Eagles,...

HEY! What's your most-loved and least favorite Schoolhouse Rock song!? The gang takes a look at their five favorite tunes from the iconic 1970s educational television cartoons of their youth. Adam dreamed up the idea to do our first top five episode, focusing on Multiplication, Grammar and America from the series' Golden Era, 1973-1976. Our first-ever 1970s-era show is crammed with fun facts, interjections, bootlegs and contests you just might want to watch our social media for. SHR royalty...

What's your most-loved and least favorite song on Yeah Yeah Yeahs - It's Blitz!? Our first new ranking episode in 13 months has us finally listening to something from the 21st century. You might've heard us announce this at the end of our XTC episode but that was, like, over a year ago. Lots of differing opinions for maximum fun. Guest ranker Tom Lord from the world's greatest YYY coverband Alright Alright Alright weighs in with his opinion too. Our social media will still be just as fun as...

SURPRISE BONUS BIRTHDAY EPISODE!  So sorry about our nine month extended hiatus remix, folks. We've been slowly getting together remotely to record a grip of new episodes and finally digging in to edit and share them with you. We can't wait for you to hear new shows about indie queens, the soundtrack of our childhood, epic 80s classics, our first-ever top five themed episode and MUCH more. As a fun bonus, we'd like to share something the other hosts surprised Adam with for his 50th birthday...

What's your most-loved and least favorite song on XTC's Skylarking? Dear Pod, we were in literal and figurative ecstasy talking about the ninth album by Swindon's finest. Jim's pick led to a new innovative countdown ranking system that we adored. Fun sharing how we all wrestled with tearing apart song combos and a track order that is such a huge part of why we love it so. Lots of our patented opinion clashing plus special guest ranker Tim Smith from Georgia XTC satellites Nigels With...

Sam takes us to Scotland to rank the debut album by Big Country, the Crossing. The rest of the hosts are fairly uninitiated which makes for interesting reactions all around. Jim and Adam silently celebrate their vaccinations by stupidly trying to record in the same room for the first time, so you might hear a slight echo echo in parts parts. HUP! Please tell us how YOU would rank tonight's tunes on Instagram, Facebook and Twitter  @wewillrankyoupod ! FILE UNDER/SPOILERS: In a Big Country,...

In a heated race, Blur emerged victorious in our first-ever request episode. Suggested by our friend Molly in Boston, the 1994 British classic beat out over 40 other suggestions in a public vote. The 16-track LP is the longest album we've ever done but we tore through it, despite some fun surprise interruptions. Lots of strong opinions and amusing tales, including the time Sam and Adam squeezed into a tiny club with the band to watch up-and-comers Oasis. Please tell us how YOU would rank...

After a lot of cataloging and shelf inventory, Adam's promise to choose an album we all have owned was delivered with Sinead O'Connor and the beautiful 1990 I Do Not Want What I Haven't Got album. As she once said, "It’s not for men to like; it’s a woman’s statement." Well, we don't like it. We LOVE it. Fitting that such a personal album resulted in the most personal moment we've recorded. Please tell us how YOU would rank tonight's tunes on Instagram, Facebook and Twitter  @wewillrankyoupod...

Dan surprised us with a wildcard pick. Instead of choosing an album, he picked ten random hits from 1980 that we ranked and it was a BLAST! Rules are meant to be broken. Lots of heated placement debate and a fun recap of how we all started discovering popular music around 1980. Make sure to listen after the end credits for the answers and winners of our Vinyl Junkies Record Shack contest!  Pull up our logo and play along at home to see how you fare against our hosts! Please tell us how YOU...

Jim's lemony-fresh pick is by FAR the album that the four of us have all loved the most. That combined with Adam being the singer for a ridiculous Stone Roses coverband means that there was a LOT for us to say, resulting in our longest episode yet. However, it's a FUN one. For fans of podcasts that go track-by-track instead of our usual countdown, today is your lucky day for a special episode on this 1989 classic. Special guests include 33 1/3 Stone Roses author Alex Green from Stereo Embers...

Sexiest. Episode. Ever. Sam's funky pick takes us back to purple-tinged 1984. Definitely our most well-known album we've done to date, which leads to lots of fun pop culture referencing. Please tell us how YOU would rank tonight's tunes on Instagram, Facebook and Twitter  @wewillrankyoupod ! FILE UNDER/SPOILERS: "Let's Go Crazy", Prince, purple banana, "Take Me with U", Coachella, the Time, "The Beautiful Ones", Wendy, "Computer Blue", Saturday Night Live, "Darling Nikki", Vanity, PMRC."When...

Finally, you can hear the long held secrets of how we met each other and started the podcast, followed by a quick recap on the five records we talked about before we decided to start recording our chats: Depeche Mode-Black Celebration, The Cure-Head On The Door, INXS-Kick, Tears For Fears-Songs From The Big Chair and the Pretty In Pink soundtrack. Our abridged life stories are fascinating but when we tackle the best and worst songs of five 1980s classics in an hour, sparks FLY. Please tell us...

What are the least-loved and most-loved lovesongs on Love's third record, Forever Changes? Listen closely and you'll hear Adam's grin, listening to his friends quote and sing songs they'd never heard just a couple of weeks before. Our first time talking about Americans and the sixties with THREE wide-ranging, virgin impressions of this 1967 folk-rock classic. Longtime Love guitarist Rusty Squeezebox was even kind enough to offer his opinion of the top tune.  Some technical gremlins kept this...

What are the best and worst songs on Radiohead's OK Computer? Between the four of us, we've witnessed quite a few memorable shows of theirs and were affected by this album in all kinds of interesting ways. By far our longest and most heartfelt episode to date. Just too much to say!  All seven of the albums we've ranked previously were from the 80s, so it's nice to finally march out into another decade, though our British streak continues with Dan's pick. Please tell us how YOU would rank...

What are the worst and first songs on the Smiths' classic third record, the Queen is Dead? We were all in southern California for peak-Mozmania, so there's lots to tell, even if Adam forgot to brag about seeing Morrissey's very first US show in San Diego. By far our most passionate episode to date, including the chats we had before we started recording them for podcasts. Please tell us how YOU would rank tonight's tunes on Instagram, Facebook and Twitter  @wewillrankyoupod ! FILE...

Our very first recorded podcast, dishing about the fourth album by the Police, Ghost In The Machine. The best albums ever made, ranked from worst to first songs!  Four longtime music and list-making friends dig into everything from new wave to indiepop to classic rock to bygone oldies from early 00s and beyond. Recorded in exotic California and Colorado locales, the quartet ranks and riles each other up with humor, insight and fun-ish facts. Podcasting goodness from the makers of music pages...
