EPISODE 10: The Building Blocks



Today's episode is a special one ....The 10th Episode!!....Is that a milestone? I don’t know, I feel like it is, so today I’m going to shake things up a bit. I have a very special episode planned for you....
 

“Brill Building Pop”

What the hell is that!?!? .. I must admit, I’d never really heard of the genre and I'm almost embarrassed to say I wasn’t sure what it was.. but as I dug into it I found out I was very familiar without even knowing it. My guess is you are too.. It turns out that I loved so much of this “ Brill Building Sound” that I decided to look up what a “brill building” was and then my mind exploded!

EPISODE 9: Tycoon of Teen


Probably the guitar and bed he wrote "To Know Him" on

 
 
Today's episode focuses on a controversial person who has somewhat recently passed away. It’s interesting,  I had been planning to do this episode well before he passed away so the timing of this just seems fitting, but instead of beating around the bush i'll just cut straight to the chase here, its Phil Spector. Now before you start getting your  shorts in a wad, I would like to point out that we will be focusing on his contributions to music, and not putting the man on a pedestal and praising him.
