One of our most requested episodes ever is for Genesis' ‘The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway' (1974) double album. So finally, here it is! Regarded by many Genesis fans as the band's most audacious and greatest work, Lamb is a challenging 95 minute listen (the band's longest studio record). A concept album following the fictional character of Rael, it was the last Genesis album to feature original lead singer, and future solo star, Peter Gabriel. Who stepped up to replace him on 1976's ‘A Trick of the Tail'? Drummer and future solo superstar Phil Collins. Podcast hosts Stephen & Paul are followers of the band (Stephen seen them play live in 1992). However, they have a preference for the more commercial, Collins-led material when the band slimmed down to only 3 members (Collins, Tony Banks & Mike Rutherford). How would they cope with full on seventies prog-rock? With an album they had previously avoided due to run-time and reputation? With song titles like ‘The Colony of Slippermen' and ‘The Grand Parade of Lifeless Packaging'? Should it have been this long? As many friends have commented, would it have worked better as a single album? What tracks would have been selected if the band had to have released it to fit on a single vinyl record (under 50 minutes)? That's the task Stephen & Paul have set themselves. After critiquing the record & creating their own cut, will they agree that the original release was too long? Listen now to find out. Also, look out for Genesis facts, archive interview clips, jokes and much more!  Next week's release is dedicated to Bruce Springsteen's 1978 album ‘Darkness on the Edge of Town'. Like the podcast?

Bruuuuuuuuce! Podcast co-host Stephen has gotten into Bruce Springsteen in a big way this year (2023). So much so that he's corralled friend and lifelong Boss fan Davie Melon into joining him for a Springsteen side-series covering his studio output from 1975 to 1987. So join them on their aural adventure from ‘Born to Run' to ‘Tunnel of Love' as they critique and rank each album, and create the ultimate under 50 minute, single vinyl Springsteen singles collection. First up is Springsteen's breakthrough album ‘Born to Run'. A 10M+ selling undisputed classic from 1975. Home to the legendary title track and it's only other single ‘10th Avenue Freeze Out'. Stephen only heard the album for the first time this year. Davie's been listening to it forever! What do they think of it? Will they rank it top tier? Where would they rank the two singles? Listen to hear their thoughts. Also, look out for archive interview clips, promos and the guys' discussion about seeing Bruce in concert later that month.

Regarded by many R.E.M. fans as their greatest album, ‘New Adventures in Hi-Fi' (1996) is a unique entry in the band's canon. Recorded predominately at sound-checks on their mammoth ‘Monster' tour, the album was a worldwide number one (although not in the US) & was the band's first release after signing a then record-breaking album deal with Warner Bros. However, it was the band's last release to feature original drummer Bill Berry & marked the start of a perceived artistic and commercial decline. Oh, it's also the band's longest studio album (65 minutes). Should it have been this long? Would some careful pruning have helped make it more palatable for a wider audience? What tracks would have been selected if the band had to have released it to fit on a single vinyl record (under 50 minutes)? That's the task podcast hosts Stephen, Paul & their guest Davie Melon have set themselves. After critiquing the record & creating their own cut, will they agree that the original release was too long? Listen now to find out. Also, look out for R.E.M. facts, archive interview clips, jokes and much more! Come back soon for another R.E.M. pod looking at underrated tracks from each of their studio albums.

HIDDEN PRIME CUTS POD: Did you know that Donna Summer worked with famed James Bond & Oscar winning film composer John Barry? We didn't either!!! So join us as we listen to and give our thoughts on the brilliant disco classic ‘Theme From The Deep (Down, Deep Inside)'. A 1977 collaboration by Summer & Barry which went top 5 in the UK singles chart and was nominated for a Golden Globe. Marvel at Summer's orgasmic moans & Paul's confusion that he thought the song was for the film ‘Deep Throat'!  Like the podcast?

TRIMMING THE CLASSIC POD: “When the musics over, turn off the lights…“ The Doors' sophomore album, 1967's ‘Strange Days', was overshadowed by the continued success of their self-titled debut album which was released earlier that year. Unfairly so say podcast hosts Stephen & Paul Nicholson. Containing ‘Love Me Two Times', ‘People Are Strange' and ‘When The Music's Over', it is an undoubted classic. But which songs are least deserving of a place on it? Which are the best? That's what Stephen & Paul discuss whilst critiquing the record. Like the podcast?

HIDDEN PRIME CUTS POD: A-ha's second album ‘Scoundrel Days' was another huge success for the band, selling 6M copies worldwide. The singles from the album were ‘I'm Losing You', ‘Cry Wolf' & ‘Manhattan Skyline'. But, right at the beginning of the album, is perhaps its greatest song: The title track. Podcast hosts Stephen & Paul, along with guest Bry, relisten to ‘Scoundrel Days', critique it & reminisce about seeing the band live in 1988. Interesting fact: Unlike their first album ‘Hunting High & Low', band singer Morten Harket did not contribute to the songwriting on ‘Scoundrel Days'. Guest is Bryan Borthwick. Like the podcast?
