Customer Reviews
This Show Is Great
I just stumbled accross this show and was psyched when I read the names of the guests. It's really cool to hear hour-long conversations with some of my favorite bass players and other musicians. I began with episode one (with Steven McDonald, who is someone I've been wanting to learn about for years) and am now on episode four (with Alice Bag).
Clever format
I love how it’s a conversation with a friend. Going to get a burrito with Norwood from Fishbone or going to the Batcave with Steve McDonald! It doesn’t get any better. These are LA music influencers. I love it.
Soooo Cool!
I’m not even a novice in my knowledge of music but I like this podcast. It has an “audio-vérité” feel to it (I make up terms). I’m getting an education while I’m at it. Soon, I shall graduate to aficionado
From one podcast host to another- Well done Abby Travis!
