Episode 65 - End of An Error



With perfect timing, I complete the task of listening to one song from every record in my record collection*. This final episode clocks in at 5 hours and represents a sprint to the finish. For your convenience, it is split into 4 parts below. This website now represents a complete archive of my life via the records that I have loved. If a fire or flood destroys my collection, my insurance claim will simply be a matter of cutting and pasting from this website. Thank you for listening.

Part one: French West African jams, Urgh a Music War, silent guest host Jackie Canchola, dance club slander.

Episode 63 - One track mind

Thanks to a recent trip to LA and an amazing 10th anniversary sale at Marriage Records, this episode features records that have been in my collection for less than a week. That being said, some of the memories are ancient, stretching back to some of the first records I ever bought (Railroad Jerk's Bang the Drum). Also, I briefly mention the phrase 'spanning time' and avoid the story about being ALMOST invited to a celebrity birthday party, further confirming that it is still a sore memory.
