Records Revisited – Details, episodes & analysis

We got the band back together! Another Seattle related band episode with repeat revisitors Kasey Anderson and Shawn Brown...this time Pearl Jam's "Yield."

Plenty of other discussion including the 1998-99 Alternative overcorrections, conspiracy theories and JFK, Ticketmaster, the song that should have been a single, "We're all crazy," Hummus, souvenir keys, and more. The intro song is Kasey's "Believers" from his upcoming new album due in October. Spoiler alert: His album is REALLY FREAKING GOOD.

One note: I overlooked that Pearl Jam was nominated for Best Hard Rock Performance for "Do the Evolution" that was won by Page and Plant for "Most High." I didn't see the nomination because that category was discontinued in 2011. Sorry for the oversight.

Episode 338: Call Me Spinster discusses Prince’s “Musicology”

Call Me Spinster returns (you might remember them from our Lauryn Hill episode) and this time we talk about my favorite later career Prince album "Musicology." Did you know this was his 28th album (28th!!!)?  We talk about their great new album "Potholes" as well as discussion about white t-shirts, Mom Rock (or is "Holler Pop"), the Chattanooga music scene, Doris Duke, when Prince goes political/social commentary - it hits, and it's not a Prince album without 2's & U's & eyes for I's.

The guys are joined by Jadea Kelly to discuss her new album “Roses” and the 2018 album “Dying Star” from Ruston Kelly (no relation). Plenty of other discussion including things that make us happy, taking  breaks, drug references in Ruston’s lyrics (like, a lot of them) and is it glamorizing or honesty or both, “You didn’t love them enough?  I want it on record,” the walls of Jericho and double meaning in Ruston’s lyrics.  Find out why Wayne and Ben are now big fans of Ruston Kelly.

Ben and Wayne and repeat revisitor Jeff Frame welcome back another repeat revisitor – Kevin Peters – to continue the Foos sidecast digging into the eighth studio album and "soundtrack" to the HBO series "Sonic Highways."  Plenty of discussion including Kevin's good excuse for being late, C's get degrees, who is going to edit the Wayne & Jeff episode, Grammy snubs, did the Foos utilize their guests appropriately (like Joe Walsh, Zac Brown, Gary Clark Jr and Rick Nielsen), and we mention the phrase yet again....pizza, sex and Foo Fighters, even when it's not so great, it's still good. I think we should make a shirt with that quote.

The guys are joined by film maker Gorman Bechard to discuss the Jay Bennett documentary “Where Are You Now, Jay Bennett” and “Summerteeth” from Wilco.  Repeat Revisitor Jeff Frame also joins the conversation because he would disown Ben as a friend if he didn’t get the invite.  Plenty of other discussion including the best opening line in music history (according to Gorman), the brutality of sequencing, Solid Sound, a huge difference of opinions for “Pieholdensuite”, Beatles references, hidden tracks, and Gorman has seen Wilco and Eric Bachmann how many times?
