#TestShow441 I have a feeling Josh already told us what was wrong with Man On The Run by time this is read. Does he think the section bringing Linda’s vocals way up front was brave or mean spirited ?
PS- Andy. I was on Crescent street when I took the photo of your father’s old address.

Ska in 65? Quite the pioneer. I’ll always bless him for pretty much being responsible for 10cc.

#TestShow440 What was the song that played at the break last week? It kind of sounded like Josh, but I wasn’t sure. Super catchy hook.

#TestShow439 Phil Manzanera has a Dylan tale in his memoir. They are playing a charity gig. Dylan asks if the band knows a 1948Tex-Mex song,he can’t place the name. He played what he claimed was the same song 6 times in a row. Each time it had different words,key and tempo. Does Angry Bob know it?

If you thought Vance got a cold reception at the Olympics, wait until they introduce Kristi Noem at the Puppy Bowl.

#TestShow437 Great to hear the John Hiatt chat and Memphis in The Meantime semi-cover last show. There’s an excellent, and quite thorough, biography called Have A Little Faith-The John Hiatt story by Michael Elliot. With a foreword by Elvis Costello. And, YES Andy, It is available on Audible.

#TestShow436 I was listening to Loudon Wainwright’s album Last Man On Earth. I checked the credits and saw it’s produced by Stewart Lerman, which had me wondering on the status of Andy’s reunion. Fully rekindled (rekindlered) ?
PS-Angry Dylan singing “everybody must get foam” caused a spit take.

I thought you were talking about Tom Verlaine’s band for a second.

#TestShow435 I read in the Larry Charles book that Bob Dylan owns a coffee shop in Santa Monica. Have either of you been there ? ( if angry Bob Dylan has any insight into the running of this establishment, it would be most welcome )

#TestShow434 I’m so happy to hear Allison is feeling better. Will she be working on any new music? I’m sure I’m not the only one who became a fan from the Thought Spiral halftime shows. Andy should listen sometime.

#TestShow432 Josh, are you going to read the new Cat Stevens/ Yusuf Islam memoir? Andy, are you going to listen to the new Cat Stevens/Yusuf Islam memoir?

#TestShow430 I enjoyed hearing the favorite artists of your spouses last week. Are there any beloved bands either of you have that your partner does not hear ear to ear with you? Do they make you only play them when they’re far from earshot?

His guitar is mixed up front, spewing out a by bevvy of licks and jangling chord changes that will haunt guitar teachers as their pupils will be quizzing them to learn.

#TestShow429 Josh, wasn’t it Samuel Johnson who said “when a man is tired of The Beatles he is tired of music” ?
How is Andy handling the loss of Pete Alonso to the Orioles and Edwin Diaz to the Dodgers?

#TestShow428 Michael DesBarres is the guest on the latest Zepfan podcast They discuss the doc and he speaks very, very highly ofJosh and the whole experience. I didn’t know it took 7 years!! He wouldn’t address the rumors about Bonzo and Page playing on Detective albums. Does Josh know anything?

That photo of Lol Creme looks like it was taken right after he read the review.

#TestShow426 Learning that an impressionable young Josh saw the Styx Kilroy Was Here stage show, does he still have a little soft spot for them? They seem
to be as reviled as Nickleback, which always seemed a bit harsh to me. Except for Babe of course.

He tries to deal with the fleeting concept of time, is a piece of vintage sounding (flower) power pop, about halfway Badfinger and The Byrds. Being your own vocalist means that there are no problems with those pesky pitch nuisances.

#TestShow425 I see Andy replying to these posts lately. . Does he read the questions early to prepare for hilarious answers ?
