Beck Did It Better

Cream: Disraeli Gears (1967)

Moms, this episode is not for you. The cream always rises to the top and this week's strange brew is no different when we become the best podcast about Cream and the 170th greatest album of all time, Disraeli Gears.

 

But before we get to the album, we spend our first crappy hour sharing our thoughts on local building code inspectors, Snoop Dogg giving up smoke, how long it should take someone to eat a 32 ounce jar of Duke's Mayo, and the best foods to have delivered. We also become the best podcast about the Beatles final song, when we discuss the creation of Now and Then, and release four other unheard Beatles tracks that will leave you tappin' your toes. 

 

Then at (59:00) we enter a world of pain when we discuss Cream's second studio album, Disraeli Gears. We cover Cream's status as a supergroup, Eric Clapton's guitar skills, and the best songs from Guitar Hero III-Legends of Rock.  

 

Next week's episode is guaranteed to be total trash when we become the best Sonic Youth podcast and discuss the alternative rock band's 1988 album, Daydream Nation.

 

 

 

Billy Joel: The Stranger (1977)

Calling all moms! This is the ep for you! We have Billy Joel, the best songs with parenthesis, and a mostly clean episode for those moms. 

We become the best Billy Joel podcast as we talk about just how good "The Stranger" by Billy Joel is except for the last two songs. 

 

Rob rethinks his life and talks candy, we get off on a wrestling tangent, and we finally hear Matt's top 100. Yes. All 100.

Next week, CREAM and Disrali Gears.

 

 

 

 

Happy Thanksgiving all! 

Steely Dan: Can’t Buy A Thrill (1972)

We're reaching out to you because we've received a lot of complaints about our last epsiode. So we're offering a 20% discount on this mystery box, which could possibly include the best podcast about Steely Dan and th 168th greatest album of all time. Can't Buy a Thrill.

 

But before we grab a guiro and get going, we dicuss the follies of our life, including our espresso martini problems, letter jacket patches, and some Thanksgiving Day pairings. We also discuss mustache styles, another perfect song, oreo cookies, and a mouse that crawled out of.....sorry the last part of the writeup cutoff beause of your slow discounted internet.

 

Then at (1:06:00) we take a few minutes away from our dirty work to discuss Steely Dan and their debut album, Can't Buy a Thrill. We celebrate Steely Dan's commercial hits (that we didn't know were by Steely Dan), discuss why Steely Dan is so polarizing, and cover the best songs from Guitar Hero World Tour.

 

Next week, we're offering you a bottle or white, a bottle of red, or perhaps the best podcast about Billy Joel instead, when we discuss Billy Joel's 5th studio album, The Stranger.

Depeche Mode: Violator (1990)

I didn't post this late. Your galaxy just stinks. 

WARNING AARON IS SO DIRTY ON THIS ONE. 

Buddy Holly: 20 Golden Greats (1978)

Merry Halloween everyone! Some of our listeners might call this episode a double decker bust but the rest of you pissants will recognize it as the best podcast about Buddy Holly and the 166th greatest album of all time, 20 Golden Greats. 

 

Before we get to the music we think it over and talk about leprechaun tag, the best things to do in San Francisco, and concerts at the Vegas Sphere. We also revive our annual graveyard smash with a list of the scariest songs of all time. 

 

Then at (52:00) we share some words of love on 20 Golden Greats, the greatest hits album by Buddy Holly & the Crickets. Can't you picture your grandpa fumbling a bra to these hits? We discuss how Buddy Holly is credited with the rock-and-roll lineup, the story behind Peggy Sue, and the best songs featuring the Bo Diddley Beat. 

 

Over the next week you can enjoy the silence, but next Tuesday we'll be back with the sweetest perfection when we become the best Depeche Mode podcast and discuss their electronic music album, Violator.
