A podcast about inexpensive, common and underappreciated records that are waiting to be rediscovered.

    Harry Nilsson - Son of Schmilsson

    Harry Nilsson - Son of Schmilsson

    The classic trio of co-hosts rendezvous in Pittsburgh to discuss the eccentric pop genius of Harry Nilsson. We listen to the record made in the wake of his massive success in the early 1970s, which proves to be a more challenging but ultimately rewarding album.  If you like us, please support us at patreon.com/idbuythatpodcast to get exclusive content, or tell a friend about us.

    Marianne Faithfull - Broken English

    Marianne Faithfull - Broken English

    Bob Bucko Jr makes his comeback to the podcast with the 1979 comeback album from English singer Marianne Faithfull. A far cry from her Sixties recordings, this album's defiant tone and futuristic sound made it a critical and commercial success, yet its impact has largely been lost to time.  If you like us, please support us at patreon.com/idbuythatpodcast to get exclusive content, or tell a friend about us.

    Guest Bevan Bell brings us an album from Brazilian keyboardist, composer and arranger Eumir Deodato. As we listen to the jazz-funk instrumentals on this record, we talk about everything from Deodato's early bossa nova days to his production work with Kool & the Gang and his familial ties with Justin Bieber.  If you like us, please support us at patreon.com/idbuythatpodcast to get exclusive content, or tell a friend about us.

    Little River Band - Sleeper Catcher

    Little River Band - Sleeper Catcher

    Australian correspondent Melonie Bayl-Smith returns to the show to provide some context for a big hit album by Little River Band. We discover just how differently this record was marketed to U.S. audiences and also touch on the various legal disputes which have resulted in a completely new lineup still performing as LRB.  If you like us, please support us at patreon.com/idbuythatpodcast to get exclusive content, or tell a friend about us.

Behind the music

This is the “special features” that should be part of every CD—the story behind the music and biography of the singer/band. Great companion playlist on Spotify for the music selections,
