OUR SEASON ONE FINALE!
You know what everyone loves ?! LATE ERA MUSIC FROM LEGACY ACTS! But, fret not, there's still some life left in this band, hell... some of their best work is from this era. (Some) Guess what y'all? Skinner takes the lead on this episode! (insert dj air horn here) So join the three of us as we talk about everything post Tusk Fleetwood Mac and definitely stick to the task at hand the whole time through, no tangents.
-
Return of the Mac, Return of the Mac, (Once again) We're back everyone, and we're talking about Fleetwood Mac's 11th and 12th studio albums Rumors and double album Tusk. 1976 through 1979 was a wild time for the Mac and these albums perfectly sum it up. We're joined with Skinner as we talk about fog bowls, spotify's shocking lack of hole content, cocaine, heartbreak, adultery, excess, Stacey's love of Reverend Horton Heat, cocaine, Bill Skinner, Patti smith in a wind tunnel and cocaine.
I (Alex) think I lost my mind editing this one, so... there's that. Enjoy!

HO-HO-HO-LY SHIT! We're back y'all!
After a WAY TOO LONG break, we're finally ready to wrap up season one with a three part Fleetwood Mac extravaganza. On part 1 we are focusing on the early iterations of the band from Peter Green, cults, an explanation of legs, sex magik, the new Fleetwood Mac and way too many albums concentrating on dad blues. Our favourite dipshit Eric Clapton even managed to squeeze his way in to their history, because of course he did. So let's begin shall we ? Next week we are focusing on the so called "classic" lineup and their two wildest albums Rumors and Tusk!
-
We're sitting down this week for the penultimate artist feature of Soft Shoulder season 1, Robert Palmer! From his early Island sound inspirations, the insane amount of cover material, his tin pan alley style to the powers station. Robert Palmer is a strange and pretty reserved musical chameleon with an equally weird body of work that is really all over the map.
-
Hey Soft Soldiers! Stacey and Alex are all the way back with an all new episode almost kind of about your favourite Alan Parsons produced 70's weirdo's, Ambrosia! Come learn about a band we "Kind of thought were different, but they're ok, i guess", sperm whale vomit, our opinions on Zappa, side profiled old men named Arthur and our brand new fan favourite segment "recipes with Stacey"
If there were ever rails, we never even glimpsed them before going off on this episode.
-
Episode 9, Kenny Loggins, let's gooooooo! We are returning to Pooh corner this week to talk about multi-level marketing, birth energy, gang fights with a gang's accountant and raking in that sweet sweet soundtrack & Xmas Money. So what did our boy K-Log get up to after Loggins and Messina ? Turns out a whole bunch of high strangeness. Check it out and don't forget to rate and review, it really helps us out.
-
Wow, this one went way off the rails and we're pretty sure it's our longest episode yet. Speaking of pretty, let's talk about this accidental best selling duo of the 1970s, Kenny Loggins and Jim Messina. From Danny's song all the way to a pretty brutal cover of Bobby Darin's "Splish Splash" these 2 cuties really run the gamut of strange folky island blues soft rock. Come learn about how this even happened, who are the coral island reefers, when the undertaker became the American badass, and we remember the golden era of the "secret song" Yikes.
-
What a week! Porcaro's and Lukathers and Fergusons oh my! We're talking Toto and all of their wacky shenanagins. From their beginnings as Rural Still Life, then Still life, amazing session work to a Louisiana wild man starting his own Toto in the 80's. Also on this episode, Stacey has a confession and trust us, it's HUGE.
-
Safe and easy middle of the road rock with a penchant to kind of sound like everyone else, that's America! Stacey and Alex sit down to talk about all sorts of stuff and kind of stay on track, find out the reason David Bowie kept a jar of pee in his fridge, who Hal Blaine is, Stacey's song about cats toe beans and other super America related things.
ENJOY!
-
So, what can't we say about Stevie Winwood ? He's been in bands since the age of 8 and really never stopped making music since. From The Spencer Davis group to Steve's solo career and as much in between as we could cram. We also find on this episode, our true feelings for Eric Clapton as well as the important question, what happened to Muff?
Full disclosure, the audio is a little off on this one. We're learning as we go everyone ! And what more does anyone enjoy than learning along ? We've really stepped it up on Episode 6 going forward.
