Hi there and thank you for choosing to tune in to Music from a Lifetime, the podcast where I look back on the albums of my life and try to offer an explanation as to why they have been so important in making me the person I am today. From the ashes of the original now dead series, this podcast will continue to offer you new thoughts on old albums and an old person’s thoughts on new albums, giving my own insights and loves (or not) on those albums and why they have impacted me the way they do. Thanks in advance for tuning in!
