It turns out that while streaming music is incredibly convenient, it’s not as fun as sorting through bins at a thrift store. Join me as I wander through thrift stores, record stores, garage sales, and yes, even the internet. Recreating a record collection one surprise at a time.

    As I mentioned on the previous episode, Red Rose Speedway was originally conceived of as a double album. When EMI said "nope", Paul shuffled some stuff around and compressed it into a single. In 2018, Paul reconstructed the original vision for the album. So I bought it. I talk about sequencing, vibes, and counterfactuals.

    We're still in the throes of a Maccathon. While I wait for The Boys of Dungeon Lane, we might as well talk about Wings' second album, and its long and winding road (hah!). I talk banning, touring, and harmonies. This week, I cover the single LP version as it was released in 1973.

    Single #10: Instant Karma/Who Has Seen the Wind

    It is a truth universally acknowledged that the breakup of the Beatles was a fraught hot mess. It was also a slo-mo train wreck, and in alternate timelines, it is possible that the end could have been delayed, if not completely avoided. However, the release of Instant Karma, and its chart success, was probably the point of no return. I discuss the song, as well as the paradox that is John Lennon, offer my Yoko Ono hot take, and shout out the work of a couple other podcasts. An eventful ten minutes.
