Love That
Album is baaaaaaaaaaccccckkkkk. Did you miss us??????
Not only
that, but the podcast turns 50 episodes old.
It took a
while, but with (most) technical difficulties overcome, I can now happily lay
episode 50 of Love That Album on you – 6 weeks or so after it was originally
due. I dub the episode “Beneath The Planet of Shooting The Shit”.
To celebrate
this milestone in the show, I invited the members of the Shooting The Shit
Crew- Tim Merrill, Eric Peterson, John Stirrat, and Michael Pursche to join in
a discussion on our favourite box sets. Are box sets a dying breed? What was
their purpose in the first place – to create interest for the novice or give
unknown treasures for the long time fan? What makes for a great box set? The
big one: what are the greatest box sets released? These life enriching
questions are all discussed on the program. It was a fascinating discussion,
and I thank these fine people for giving of their time and expertise. A special
thanks should be given to Geoff Smith who was available for the show, but Skype
gave us difficulties in letting Geoff onto the conversation, Rest assured, he
will be back on the program soon.
Fittingly,
to accompany the discussion of garage, blues, punk, Americana, pop and jazz,
music for the show is provided courtesy of Scriabin, Beethoven and Chopin.
At this mini
milestone for the show, my thanks go to anyone who has ever guested on the
show, provided feedback and encouragement, or just listened to the damn thing.
I love doing this podcast and am gratified that a bunch of you out there enjoy
listening. Here’s to the next 50 shows.
