This is the fifth program that focuses on a city – this time Boston in the north east of the US. Bands include Boston(!), Aerosmith and the Lemonheads. Listen to find out who else was there!
Our 12th program linking songs together via a musician or songwriter. Some of the links are session or touring musicians whilst others are major stars in their own right. We start with Sheryl Crow and finish with Chris Rea – listen to find out who the links are!
Our sixth program of songs with an animal in the title – more flying creatures! From seagulls and pigeons to eagles and an albatross with some moths and other insects in between!
The 5th program from the 6th Gear playlist where all songs are in the six minute range. From pop through classic rock, goth rock to live alternative rock tracks.
Our sixth program highlighting an audio engineer – the folks in the back room that provide an important input to the finished work. This time we focus on Bob Clearmountain, a producer and mixing engineer.
This is a follow on from the previous program that covered 1970. Billy Preston was one of the greats from that time with the Beatles and then afterwards as a solo artist.
1970 was a tumultuous year for the world with politics, war, terrorism and natural disasters heading the news. In the meantime, rock music was the best it had been with some amazing artists and songs being recorded.
Our fifth program covering the work of a music producer – this time Don Was – multi-instrumentalist, enginer and producer. These tracks also have Was playing a range of instruments.
