Flatbasset Radio: Episode #107

What makes those eyes of yours look into mine?

Well hello again, podcast fans! Welcome to Flatbasset Radio: Episode #107!

That's right, everybody, I'm trying my best to stay on my "weekly show" routine. This is a rare Monday show, but I'm counting it anyway.

As always I've got a great batch of songs lined up on this week's show. There are some great shows coming up this week, I'm still making up for some missed anniversaries, my favorite active band, a mid-show jazz break, a not-insignificant amount of great new local music, the Cover Of The Week, my vote for Spoon's best album, some Canadian pop, some American hip-hop, and yet another heartbreaking Flatbasset Flatclassic.

As always, Flatbasset Radio is completely free. I've finally set up a decent downloading site, so if you'd like to download Flatbasset Radio: Episode #107 (with all the appropriate iTunes tagging), just click here.

Flatbasset Radio: Episode #106

Oh, the pain in my legs...

Well hello again, everybody! Welcome to Flatbasset Radio's long-in-production Episode #106!

That's right, folks, I finally got my lazy ass back to work after taking nearly six weeks off from the podcast. I know what you're thinking, "Well, you must have been very busy. Between work and your commitment to self-improvement I can completely understand taking six weeks off."

Wrong! I took on no extra work and may actually be dumber than the last time I recorded a show.

Nonetheless, I've got a great show for you this week. We've got to catch up on some anniversaries, check out some outstanding new local music, look ahead to some concerts this week, look back at a major concert that passed, dig into some instrumentals, and, sadly, mourn to lost titans of their respective genres. All that plus the Cover Of The Week and the Flatbasset Flatclassic!

As always, Flatbasset Radio is completely free. I've finally set up a decent downloading site, so if you'd like to download Flatbasset Radio: Episode #106 (with all the appropriate iTunes tagging), just click here.

Flatbasset Radio's 25 Most Played Albums: August '17

Well hello again, everybody! Welcome to this month's installment of Album Collage Monthly!

First off, let me apologize for completely stepping away for the month of August. Long story. I had lots on my plate and I just needed to step back for a minute. Thanks for being patient. I promise I'll be better in September.
Alright, let's get to the thing.

(As always, one "play" equals one song. For example, that new Cheap Fantasy album has 5 songs on it, so each time I listen to it front to back it counts as five "plays." As usual, all stats come from my Last.FM page. Give it a follow if you really want to stay up on what's getting the most plays.)
