Have you listened to One by Willie?
The most significant contribution I've made to a single episode of @500songspodcast.bsky.social is to the Shakers bonus episode. They're great!
Do my ears deceive me or is this the indepth breakdown of A Quick One I’ve always dreamed of? Not quick at all. “Everyone is forgiven a thousand times over” bravo @500songspodcast.bsky.social “Cello cello cello” indeed.
Oh wow. This made my week. @sponglr.bsky.social is bringing back One By Willie for another season.
Gregg Alexander had one of the great gradual pop pivots, ending up as the one-hit-wonder in the bucket hat rhyming Hanson with Marilyn Manson after flopping with his 1989 attempt at sensitive-boy pop-rock
Well worth it. Fantastic podcast, every episode is a journey.
The cover of my first pressing (stereo, UK) of Pet Sounds. I have since sold this record. Shocking, I know. It's a classic. It did a lot to change the face of popular music. But it's always been a record I admire rather than love. It's never got its hooks into me like 'Revolver' or 'Rubber Soul' does, and I get much more enjoyment out of later Beach Boys LPs such as 'Holland' and 'Carl And The Passions'. So, being brutal, and honest about my listening habits, I decided it had to go. Hopefully someone else who connects with it in a way I never did is really enjoying it.
The other Beach Boys are feeding the goats. Mike Love, however, is suspicious of the goats. Mikes got some treats in his pockets, which he *could* give the goats, but, because he’s greedy and likes Mike Love far more than he could ever like goats, he’s decided to keep the treats for himself.
New Season: In “One by Willie,” Texas Monthly’s John Spong hosts intimate conversations with a range of prominent guests about the Willie Nelson songs that mean the most to them. www.texasmonthly.com/podcasts/ser...
New OBW: Ray Benson--a 50-year friend and collaborator--goes deep on Willie and the Wheel's cover of the Bob Wills classic, "Going Away Party"...sending a well-informed valentine to Wills, songwriter Cindy Walker, and of course Willie Nelson himself.
