    S06E20 Queen 'Made In Heaven'

    And so we come to the last proper album of 1995 that we're looking at, and it's the last "proper" album by Queen. Released four years after Freddie Mercury died this is compiled from unreleased vocal recordings, old solo songs and B-sides so it's a strange old mix of stuff. We also have about a million other albums and singles to chat about that were released in the same time period, acts such as Gza, The Pharcyde and Michael Barrymore. Wait, what? As mentioned on this episode, the next thing we're going to be recording will be our round-up of the best albums from 1995 so we would love to get your top 5, top 10, whatever you'd like to send us. You can email pclmusicpodcast@gmail.com or hit us up on any of the social media. As always please do give us a follow on our social media platforms and why not go and give us a nice rating or comment over on Spotify now that you're able to while you're checking out this episode's companion playlist (which contains ALL of the songs we talk about on this one) and our ongoing and sprawling playlist of songs from each album that we do an episode on.

    S06E19 Pulp 'Different Class'

    Another very very big album from 1995 to talk about here - one that was massive in the Britpop boom but also crossed over into the mainstream in the UK at least. Pulp's Different Class' has their biggest singles on it but is also full of songs about dead end lives and seedy smut so there's something for everyone in here. And as well as chatting about Pulp we discuss the likes of Cypress Hill, Sunny Day Real Estate and Tricky. And East 17 obviously.

    S06E18 Simply Red 'Life'

    Well well well, Mr Hucknall, we meet again. Simply Red's 1995 album 'Life' was a big seller and had a massive number one single on it but kind of feels like it doesn't get remembered much when people look back. We certainly didn't know anything much about it going into this episode and to be honest we kind of wish it had stayed that way. But we do have probably the biggest albums and singles sections that we've ever done, loads of bands that we get to talk about like Smashing Pumpkins, Incubus, Anthrax and obviously Cliff Richard. Plus we get to add a song to our "much-loved" Give Me Some Reggae! playlist where we add terrible reggae songs from albums we're covering that are in no way reggae albums which is always the sign of a good episode.

    S06E17 Oasis (What's The Story) Morning Glory?

    Well now, here's one of the biggest albums we've had to look at to date - an absolute monster that came out in October 1995 and just changed everything it seemed. Oasis mania took over the UK and a lot of the rest of the world as well. And if you're assuming that we might give this one a kicking then prepare to be disappointed! We do also talk about things like Mr Bungle, Earthling and obviously PJ & Duncan.

    S06E16 Mariah Carey 'Daydream'

    Another Mariah Carey episode? In this economy? Well ok then, if we simply must. This time we're listening to her 1995 album 'Daydream' which was another massive seller, boosted by singles such as Fantasy, One Sweet Day and Always Be My Baby. It may have only been number one in the UK charts for one week but in the states this was another total monster for Mariah, as we discuss. We also have the chance to natter about the likes of Cypress Hill, Deftones and DJ Food so that's always fun.

    S06E15 Blur 'The Great Escape'

    Strap in for this one! If you're a Blur fan, you might want to just move onto another episode but if you're a fan of Dave being furious then this is going to be a treat. We're listening to The Great Escape and while Krister doesn't mind a bit of Blur from time to time, Dave is very firmly not a fan. A fact that is very clear from the outset. But we also get to discuss the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Flaming Lips and the Outhere Brothers and some of their less radio-friendly songs.

    S06E14 Levellers 'Zeitgeist'

    After a few weeks off over Christmas 2025 we are back and starting off the new year with a look at 1995's 'Zeitgeist' album by the Levellers. Neither of us were fans of the band back in the day and don't know this record at all really so fingers crossed we get some fun new songs to get our teeth into. As well as talking about the Levellers and trying not to mention fire poi too much we happen upon the likes of KRS One, Lisa Loeb and Michael Bolton on our journey through what else was going on in September '95. Good lord.

    S06E13 The Charlatans 'The Charlatans'

    The Charlatans released their fourth album, just called 'The Charlatans', in September 1995 and here we are to give it a once over. Our musical tastes are shown in stark contrast on this one as Krister really enjoys it while Dave is left pretty cold. We do get the chance to gabble about the likes of Money Mark, Slayer and Whigfield though so a bit of something for everyone.
