    2021: Get Back to Where You Once Belonged
    Dec 2 2021
    We said we'd do an extra episode when the Peter Jackson documentary came out and that day arrived over the long weekend. Justin hid a camera in a flower pot and sat down with Ryan to see what he thought of it. This episode reference our original 1970 conversation a few times. You can revisit that one, which features Let it Be and a slate of Beatles solo albums that came out that same year) earlier in this podcast feed or right here.

    Tattoo You, featuring Andy Cush
    Mar 30 2021
    In this bonus episode Justin and Ryan talk to Andy Cush (@cushac) of Pitchfork and the Late Era podcast, which looks at albums released by gigantic bands and artists in the late, often bad, sometimes good, almost always amusing, parts of their career. It’s a complimentary piece to our finale episode, which went deep on Some Girls but probably deserved a little more Tattoo You. Also covered: Santana's Supernatural and Aerosmith's Honkin' on Bobo.
