  1. Graceland

    FEB 3

    Graceland

    By the mid-1980s, apartheid-era South Africa was subject to a global cultural boycott, strongly advocated by the African National Congress (ANC) and supported by the United Nations. Musicians were explicitly asked not to perform, record, or collaborate in South Africa, regardless of intent. In 1984–85, Paul Simon traveled to South Africa to record with Black South African musicians, including members of Ladysmith Black Mambazo. He did not seek ANC approval beforehand and broke the cultural boycott in the process. But was it worth it? Did Simon accomplish anything creatively or culturally worth his bold contravention of the global attitude toward the South African regime? The only way to find out is to turn on, tune in, and call me Al. Don't forget to follow us on social media and leave us a rating/review if you're enjoying the show!

  2. Tall Tales (with Dave Lasseter)

    Tall Tales (with Dave Lasseter)

    We're joined by Crowes superfan and all round wonderful fella Dave Lasseter to pull apart Amorica and Tall and to chat about how good the Crowes were live! We also take a run at resequencing the album taking into account every track we have to choose from. Kev and Corey weren't hot on Cursed Diamond, so will Dave hang up the call? Will we get into any trouble for our edits, and will Corey finally open this damned treacle mine! The only way to find out is to turn on, tune in, and tell me where you have been.

    Season 7 Finale (with Scott Haskin)

    Our friend Scott Haskin is back to help us unpack season seven. We've covered a bunch of artists on this show that haven't resonated with Scott, so we're curious how this one will go! We have questions provided by the wonderful Dave Lasseter and we'll also find out who we'll be listening to in Season 8! Who can it be now? The only way to find out is to turn on, tune in, and shake your money maker. Don't forget to follow us on social media and leave us a rating/review if you're enjoying the show!

  4. By Your Side - Side B

    JAN 13

    By Your Side - Side B

    Well, look at that. We've come (almost) to the end of another season. Today's episode wraps up the fifth album of our adventure with The Black Crowes. Kev was a big fan coming in, Corey was pretty sure he was a big fan coming in. We've had some high highs and a couple of low lows, but more than anything, we've had pretty good consistency! But, do those ingredients add up to a sauce that you can truly call awesome? Will By Your Side be the third Crowes album to crack our overall top ten? And will Kev salvage any sort of pride in this Season's game, despite already being mathematically unable to stop the Morrissette juggernaut? The only way to find out is to turn on, tune in, and watch it grow. Songs covered in this episode: "Heavy", "Welcome to the Goodtimes", "Go Tell the Congregation" ,"Diamond Ring", "Then She Said My Name", "Virtue and Vice" Don't forget to follow us on social media and leave us a rating/review if you're enjoying the show!

  5. By Your Side - Side A

    JAN 6

    By Your Side - Side A

    The Bears are into a wild card matchup with division rivals, the Packers. The Giants have confounded Corey's hopes yet again by being not quite bad enough to secure the first pick in the next NFL draft, and Canada go down 6-4 to Czechia in the World Junior Hockey Championships. And that's all before we've even mentioned the Black Crowes! We're starting the last album in this season of the UCC with this week's episode and it's hard to believe that we're almost done already. But will "HorseHead" make any sense to Corey or Kev? And will Corey make it through his current illness (sans hotel)? The only way to find out is to turn on, tune in, and go faster! Songs covered in this episode: "Go Faster", "Kickin' My Heart Around ", "By Your Side", "HorseHead", "Only a Fool" Don't forget to follow us on social media and leave us a rating/review if you're enjoying the show!

    Wicked Sensation

    This week's Kofi episode is brought to you by our pal Josh Caldwell from The Engine Room podcast! We're digging out our amps and turning them up to ten and heading back to the Sunset Strip, kinda. George Lynch is an American guitarist, best known for his work with the hard rock/heavy metal band Dokken and his post-Dokken solo band Lynch Mob, whose debut album, "Wicked Sensation", we'll be covering today. He is regarded as one of the most renowned and influential metal guitarists of the 1980s, noted for his distinctive playing style and sound. But will Kev be impressed with the gallons of hoodala on offer and will Corey be back in his metal happy place? The only way to find out is to turn on, tune in, and blow your thoughts away. Songs covered in this episode: "Wicked Sensation", "River of Love", "Sweet Sister Mercy", "All I Want", "Hell Child", "She's Evil But She's Mine", "Dance of the Dogs", "Rain", "No Bed of Roses", "Through These Eyes", "For a Million Years", "Street Fightin' Man" Don't forget to follow us on social media and leave us a rating/review if you're enjoying the show!

We picked three songs each and in both cases, we picked two songs that the other person had never heard! So will Corey be impressed by Jona Lewie and will Kev be on board for a couple of comedy songs? The only way to find out is to turn on, tune in, and... IT'S CHRIIIIIIIIIIIIISTMAAAAAAAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSS!

  8. Three Snakes and One Charm - Side B

    12/16/2025

    Three Snakes and One Charm - Side B

    Side A scored really highly, but can Three Snakes and One Charm do enough on Side B to crack the top ten? We're taking a whole bunch of different sonic paths again as the Black Crowes put us through our paces. But will Corey dig the hippy vibes on How Much for Your Wings? Will Kev have anything to say about a distinctly familiar lick in Better When You're Not Alone? The only way to find out is to turn on, tune in, and bring on this flowering! Songs covered in this episode: "(Only) Halfway to Everywhere", "Bring On, Bring On", "How Much for Your Wings?", "Let Me Share the Ride", "Better When You're Not Alone", "Evil Eye" Don't forget to follow us on social media and leave us a rating/review if you're enjoying the show!
