Another top Interview

Congratulations Jason on your interview with Jeff Skunk Baxter. In all these interviews your knowledge of the subject and the person being interviewed shines through. One can tell that your knowledge and care for the subject impresses your interviewee. This makes the interviews immensely enjoyable. The Skunk Baxter interview is a case in point. Thank you.

Came here in search of Peggy Seeger and found an inspirational conversation , loved the one with Neil Storey too, great interviewer really knows his stuff when it comes to music and the art of conversation - lots of sonic gems, Stories,and words of wisdom

A Treasure

A wonderful pod that champions the minor as well as major artists and bands some of which have become a footnote in music history with the advancing years. This is and will become a treasure trove for future generations and I am pleased to add my endorsement. You can always learn something from this even if you know the bands/artist well.
