Thank you Brice

Have only been listening for the last 10 years or so. Always high quality. Always enjoy the fascinating background information. Thank you so much for all your time and effort.

A real labour of love

So long running and so interesting, don’t even know when I found this but it’s just just a wonderful thing that I’ve recommended to many others.

Thank you

The best podcast ever!

I’ve listened to every episode. It is marvellous: the history, the music, and Brice! It is the perfect podcast to put on while doing something else: cooking, sewing, etc. I love having it in the background. At Christmas and Halloween, I re-upload all the old episodes with those themes and the house is full of fun music. Thank you Brice for this wonderful piece of history. Your podcast will live on and share information about music from here on... what a fantastic contribution to the world! 🎼🎧🎺🎸🎻
