The Vinyl Guide is a weekly podcast for fans and collectors of vinyl records. Each week is an audio-documentary on your favourite records, often including interviews with band members and people who were part of the project.
It’s hosted by Nate Goyer, a self-described vinyl maniac who enjoys listening to records and sharing the stories behind them. Despite his Yankee accent, Nate lives in Sydney, Australia with his wife, 2 kids, and about 1,500 records. (But only about 1,000 of them his wife knows about.)
The Vinyl Guide takes records one by one, telling the tale of how they came to be, why the work is important, and then shares how collectors can tell one pressing from another. Learn more at the TheVinylGuide.com or simply subscribe via iTunes or RSS feed.
Concrete Blonde was a phenomenal Southern California band who had great songs and lucky enough to be recognized for their work—hits like “Joey,” “Heal It Up,” “Caroline,” “Tomorrow Wendy,” “God Is a Bullet”—I could go on. Lead singer Johnette Napolitano joins us to talk about her incredible career, the songs, the stories, and why the music always needs to be the most important focus in this industry. Johnette also grew up in SoCal and has many stories of working with and around legends of music and art.
