Customer Reviews
Making old music new again
So many hidden gems. This is a great podcast for those of us who love great lyrics and nice tunes.
Huge fan
Picked up on REK While working in the little state of Texas a couple years ago, the lyrics the music blew me away. So glad to have a podcast to spread some new to me and probably old to most musicians. The party never ends.
Volume up
Good podcast but could you turn up the volume a bit?
