This is very accurate.

Most of his interviews are great.

Some do have awkward moments, but in an amusing way. The Alan Parsons one posted recently being an example.

Here, Alan, listen to three minutes of music you produced 45 years ago, LOL

Ha! I forgot he does that. Cracks out his iPhone and queues up one of the interviewees songs.

I’m waiting for some rock god to look at him blankly and say “I haven’t listened to that since the we finished mixing”.

When he plays “Smells Like Teen Spirit” to Kris Novoselic, Kim Thayil, and Jack Endino, you can hear Novoselic turn to the other two guys and say, “You guys know this one?”

I think he does all of this with a best intentions but in the end is a mainstream rock guy. He seems to have some big blind spots regarding underground music especially. He’s a fairly typical normie that thinks Smashing Pumpkins were underground music. I think he did a whole episode on dropped D tuning as a “90s” concept and didn’t mention Helmet. Probably the most obvious band to associate with that…

Basically he’s an 80s rock guy. Which fine, but his interviews are far more fun than his opinions.
It was "Of All Time..."

Now, if it is an "All Time..." list?

Forget that you did not mention Helmet(or, for that matter, Quicksand...)

You did not mention this -

It does always seem like "Time" comes on before I can get out of the produce section to the candy/infants aisle.

Very "Look, I get it..."

Should throw this in every third or fourth pass just for kicks...



That said, they have made up for it by playing "Moonlight Mile" a few times when I was there after ten pm.

Past that, someone should hip them to the fact that there are more Springsteen tunes than "Glory Days".
