168: Badfinger - Straight Up (1971) — Discord & Rhyme: An Album Podcast
Of all the casualties of the Beatles’ Apple label, Badfinger is the most tragic. They had a very promising start, helped along by the Beatles and their associates, but a combination of bad management ...

For a brief time everything worked out right for Badfinger & they came up with an all-time classic album. From power pop to boogie rock and various points in between, Straight Up is a no-skips album that deserves your attention, so listen up. #MusicSky discordpod.com/listen/168-b...

3FHaR is a classic, but there's always been an odd "first draft" quality to the mixing and mastering that I find it hard to get over, and it's something DLS got better about on their later albums. So Paul's Boutique takes this match-up.

Best use of an ongoing reference to a 1 second excerpt from a Mutt Lange-produced album
Fun (maybe?) exercise: Try to come up with a set of podcast awards that makes sense.
I don't think lumping together interview pods and explainer pods and news and history etc etc makes sense!

I knew him as Adam Bahner. The world knows him as Tay Zonday, the man who sang "Chocolate Rain"
He sounded exactly the same at age 15 as he does as an adult

Who was in your high school graduating class, +/- two years, that would be of interest?
For example, I took a basketball class and graduated w/all-time 8th man Jud Buechler (look it up), and may have followed Stephanie Seymour (not sure if she still WENT to school after I moved there).

I STILL have some of these CDs!
Happy 20th anniversary to the Sony BMG copy protection rootkit scandal, in which the company secretly installed software to hide DRM technology on CD buyers’ PCs. XCP was a security risk that led to public outcry, class action lawsuits, and, 20 years ago today, a recall of dozens of album titles.

AND I WANT
A fast machine, kept his motor clean: My new #HitParadePod on @slate.com is about superproducer “Mutt” Lange, mystery man of arena-rocking überpop. Mutt’s anthemic sound worked across genres—AC/DC to the Cars, Foreigner to Billy Ocean, Def Leppard to Shania. Let the magic man pour some sugar on you.
The Reclusive Producer Who Shook the Charts All Night Long
Mutt Lange avoided the spotlight while crafting some of the loudest, catchiest, and bestselling records of all time.
