So good

Very entertaining and informative series. I’ve listened to Iggy and Neil so far and am on Joni currently. Saving Bowie for last. Cool concept to do a bio of each artist in 12 episodes. The best part in my opinion is the combination of thoughtful narrative interwoven with audio clips of music and interviews of the artists and others from the story. Very well done and sure to be a hit with music nerds. P.S. listening to Iggy Pop’s baritone voice is like a warm blanket, SO GOOD!

Mr knows what he's talking abt ,
