Records Revisited

From Ben: I fly solo for this interview with Mindy Smith. I could have used Wayne to tell me that my microphone wasn't working properly (it might be time for a new laptop). Mindy and I talk about her excellent new album "Quiet Town" and other topics like being Geminis, Neilson Hubbard (who produced "Quiet Town"), Susan Ashton, writing sad songs, reading the comments, breaking the rules (and how it paid off).  I love her picks for 5 favorite albums including The Sundays and another guest talks about "Poses" from Rufus Wainwright!Songs include (from "Quiet Town" unless otherwise noted):JerichoEvery Once in a WhileOne Moment More (from debut titled "One Moment More")What Love Can Do (from "Stupid Love")Something To Write in StoneCheck out Mindy's happenings at:  https://mindysmithmusic.com/Check out other episodes at RecordsRevisitedPodcast.com or one all your favorite podcast providers like Apple Podcasts, Castbox, iHeartMedia, and Spotify.

Sameer Gadhia and Eric Cannata of Young the Giant join us to discuss their sophomore album “Mind Over Matter” that is celebrating its 10th anniversary!   We talk about the production of the album, sequencing, could they have made “American Bollywood” earlier in their career, vocal acrobats, misheard lyrics (Sienna?), getting “Teachers” and “Daydreamer” back into the live setlists, finding out your song is going viral on Tik Tok, and more.  We love these guys!  Check out Young The Giant at: https://www.youngthegiant.com/ Check out other episodes at RecordsRevisitedPodcast.com or one all your favorite podcast providers like Apple Podcasts, Castbox, iHeartMedia, and Spotify.

Jocelyn Si of Walt Disco and guest co-host Jason Earle (of The Marinade” podcast) join me in discussing “Poses” from Rufus Wainwright.  Plenty of other discussion including finding one’s voice in college, getting ready to tour with OMD in the states (in 2025, not in 2024), Bronski Beat, Nepo Babies, Death of Venice, welcome moments of horns, and "In A Graveyard" is I think the best Billy Joel song not written or sung by Billy Joel.  Prove me wrong.I won't guarantee that you'll like the album. It was a slow burn for me. This one takes time to grow on you and, I get it, sometimes we don't have that time to invest in an album that maybe you're only marginally interested in.  But, I felt rewarded in taking the time to absorb “Poses.”Check out Walt Disco at: https://waltdisco.os.fan/Check out The Marinade with Jason Earle at: https://www.marinadepodcast.com/ Check out other episodes at RecordsRevisitedPodcast.com or one all your favorite podcast providers like Apple Podcasts, Castbox, iHeartMedia, and Spotify.

Plenty of other conversation including the LA country scene, Mule Kick Records, Post Malone, the Bluebird, male guilt, Jenny Lewis, alternative radio in 2004, beeps and boops, and we still don’t know the meaning of 11/11/46.  Jenny needs to come on the show to explain!And, we weren't very nice about "Ripchord" which, on any album, would be a song that I'd probably really dig.

You're gonna have a new favorite artist as well.Let me know your thoughts if we should do more of these types of bonus episodes.

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.
