Show Notes
The episode that launched it all... is back, cleaned up and injected with archival clips and new music.
If you've never listened to our first episode about Mott The Hoople or found it unlistenable because of amateurish audio quality, we encourage you to check out this fresh version.
There are a still some imperfections, to be sure, but our conversation has some terrific nuggets and Mott's music always delivers. We recorded this episode at Common House in Charlottesville, VA, and you can hear some background ambiance.
At the time, we recorded the episode with the hope that people might find our mutual Hoople and Hunter obsession engaging enough to come back for more, but we weren't totally confident that we had gold. 30+ epic episodes later, it's hard to believe there was ever any doubt. Thanks for your support along the way!
Enjoy and don't forget our companion Mott playlist... Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
More from The Well Of Sound
Lost to a mystical dimension, this episode has been recovered, as if by faerie magic. Recorded not long after Dave and Lex's Favorite Bowie Non-Singles episode, this 2+ hour glam-o-rama continues their discussion of diamondy, tricksy pioneers of that special '70s sound... with the arguable king of glam rock: Marc Bolan. Strap in. Let's get it on and bang a gong. It's the T. Rex universe.
Believe it or not, Dave and Lex have never dug deep on David Bowie, on- OR off-air. That changes with this episode. With a slight twist, of course. They won't be talking hits. This episode is strictly about their favorite Bowie songs that were never released as singles. All decades are spanned in this retrospective, and neither host has an idea of what the other has selected. Let's sparkle some stardust and get to listening! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Let's open up that big ol' crate of live records... Dave and Lex talk about six of our favorite concert recordings and dig in on what we think makes a good live record. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
We stumbled across the idea in our very first episode, and then unearthed it with its recent remaster...
Dave and Lex weather a giant storm to talk about what's really important in this life -- underrated solo albums. They discuss a total of six albums, spanning pop, rock, ambient, soul, and even a film score. Which ones? You'll have to listen to find out. Hosted on Acast.
