Records Revisited Podcast (W/ ❤️ We Will Survive)

We finally gave in. We created a Patreon account. After upgrading our hosting platform and upgrading our virtual recording service, we decided it was finally time to ask for some help. 1/3 patreon.com/RecordsRevisit…

@Rightanglenews No one is seething. Just stop it.

BREAKING - Leftists are absolutely seething after American figure skater Alysa Liu and her father, who escaped the Chinese Communist Party, both draped themselves in the American flag during her Olympic gold celebration. They only like team USA players who hate America.

@GenTXer2 Absolutely the best album of the 90s. Might be time for me to rerelease our episode with @mattnathanson to get the episode back in search engines again.

My Top 50 Albums Of The 90s #1 🏆🥇 U2: Achtung Baby (1991) One of the most beautiful albums ever recorded. End of story. Period. No debate (well, I'll welcome debate). What do you think of my top pick? 🤔

Couple of years ago I started a Wings discography listen. I never finished it. 🤦‍♂️ But I found out that there will be a Wings and Paul McCartney exhibit at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame when I visit this summer so…I probably should finish my listens. “Venus and Mars” is next.

@MaxIke29 You’re gonna love the episode. Enjoy.

@PodcastRecords so excited that you guys are doing PW’s “Stereo”. I’m just about to get to the rankings, but to answer your question, not only does PW pull it off , “Stereo” (and “Mono” one of the great albums of the century and PW‘s best solo work.

@marinadepodcast We need to talk. 🤦‍♂️

@PodcastRecords Can't belive I'm saying this out loud, on the internet, and admitting it to you, my friend. I don't own any Petty vinyl. Not sure if I have a CD either. Shame.

Doing some nerdy reflection today. I own a physical copy of everything Jason Isbell other than the live from Scotland solo record. Just realized I don't own a copy of Go Go Boots by Drive-by Truckers. Still have a few of theirs to complete the greater DBT Universe catalog.

@luke_winkie @the_tisburys He also lied about the word “great.”

Motherfucker I have read your blog. You were quoting Shins lyrics. You were listening to The Postal Service. There is no way you can name more than three Kid Rock songs. Is there anything you don’t lie about?

@kaitlancollins If I had to interview that man on a regular basis, I probably wouldn’t ever smile either. We appreciate you asking the tough questions. You rock!

President Trump argues the country should move on from the Epstein files and lashes out when asked about the survivors' response to the latest release from the Justice Department.

I don’t recall ever hearing anything about the movie “That Summer!” But the soundtrack for the film…totally great. Songs from Elvis, Nick Lowe, The Only Ones, Boomtown Rats and Ramones among others. Is this soundtrack a keeper? I think it just might be.

Found “All Four One” from The Motels on CD recently. Includes the classics “Only The Lonely” and “Take The L.” But is this album one that I need both on vinyl and on CD?

No… I’m not feeling blue. Even though it’s supposed to be record lows in Florida this weekend. Any time is a good time for Weezer’s “Blue” album. You know we did an episode about this album with little brother, right? What’s your favorite track on this classic?

Listened to Air Supply’s twelfth album from 1993 “The Vanishing Race” (Twelfth? What?). Did all mid 90’s adult contemporary sound the same? Or is this producer Humberto Gatica’s influence? He won awards for his work with Celine & Michael Buble & Josh Groban.

I was never a big fan of “Cantaloop”…the huge hit from Us3 from 1993. But, their influx of jazz and hip hop on other tunes intrigued me. The 2004 album “Questions” has an updated “Soul Mix” of the song. I like it better than the original. Any other fans of Us3?

I figured…for 59 cents, I’ll take another chance on a Ravi Shankar album. Found this “Live at Monterey 1967” album on a recent Goodwill Hunting trip. Even took Ravi’s advice from the album sleeve. The answer is still nope. I just don’t love the sitar. Probably never will.

K-Tel time! Spinning “Radio Active” from 1982. I guess Genesis is a bridge between Rick James and Devo? Mmm-k. I think my only skip would be “She’s a Bad Mama Jama.” I’m cranking up the rest…especially Blondie & The Moody Blues. Whatcha cranking off this compilation?

Soundtrack to my commute: Self titled Fleetwood Mac from 1975. Includes the hits “Say You Love Me” & “Over My Head” & “Rhiannon.” “Landslide” wasn’t a single but…come on…it’s one of the greatest songs EVER. Even with all those tunes…it’s my 5th favorite Mac album? Yours?

Sometimes I just need some 80’s dance pop to get my butt moving. Hence…”Exposure” from Expose. “Point of No Return” is a jam. 1987 Ben probably would not have admitted that. 2026 acknowledges. How’s your day going?

Next up: “Breakaway” from Art Garfunkel (1975). Includes his cover of “I Only Have Eyes for You” (which charted and peaked at #18) and his duet with Paul Simon (“My Little Town”) peaked at #9, their first work together since breaking part as a duo. Who knows this one?

Been a minute since I’ve listened to sole Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark. You might just know them as OMD. I will never NOT crank up “Enola Gay” & “Secret.” I’m definitely tired of “If You Leave.” What OMD songs would you crank? What’s your favorite from them?

What are the chances? I mention Sheena Easton on our Dusty Springfield episode and then I find the rare early pressing of “Best Kept Secret” with her version of “Just One Smile.” Was it blasphemy to say I like Sheena’s version better?
