Thank you for this podcast
Wonderful! Refreshes and enhances any existing knowledge and understanding I may have had. A pleasure.
Exquisite!
Quite honestly the best musical podcast I have come across. Wonderful to listen to for leisure, work or productivity!
It would have had 5 stars BUT…
…at the end of each (excellent) episode, Guy Jones says there is a list of all the music that has been played, with the performers. Well, I guess they didn’t test that with an iPad.
I have a sub to AppleMusic (or I wouldn’t be able to listen to it at all, naturally) but I cannot access the podcast from the podcast app. I have to go via AppleMusic. So, by going via AM, no list is available. Maybe the list would be there…if I could listen by the podcast app…but it won’t let me. Hmm, seems a bit circular, no? All I can say is thank god for Shazam.
I’ve listened to the first two episodes. I’m a musician so it went over ground I already knew but it was interesting and well presented. And some new stuff too (yay!). I am looking forward to hearing the rest; I just wish I could access the list as well.
If you figure out what I should have done, I would appreciate knowing.
