This was fun - and a little daunting, given that I was sharing the airwaves with somewhat of an expert. An interesting exercise to go into such a deep dive practically deaf and blind to the album. Hopefully it all makes sense.

We're back...and we're Maladjusted. Nothing new there, some may argue. After an extended hiatus, Paul and Nick return with a deep dive into one of the most maligned and perhaps misunderstood #Morrissey albums. open.spotify.com/episode/1wxk...

The latest TRACKS OF OUR YEARS podcast sees Paul and myself discussing 1994, not just the B-word but also serial killers, Tory sex scandals, and TLC. An important year culturally in the UK and a pivotal one on a personal level. To paraphrase Rick James, "1994...it's a helluva year.

Some of you will know, the original basis for Paul & Nick's collaboration was a shared love of Britpop. What you will also know is that these contrarians will often deliberately avoid aspects of Britpop even when discussing 1994. See exhibit A below! open.spotify.com/episode/081v...

The hardest working man in podcasting - Paul Laird - has been putting in an absolute shift today for TRACKS OF OUR YEARS. Two full-length CELEB interviews done and a complete (almost) episode edit. All for your future enjoyment! What a legend he is. All coming soon...

We'll let you all know in advance when other years to contribute to are confirmed. But for now, 94 and 98 need your input! Let's hear your choices and why you love them! A little personal story would give it colour but please keep it short and sweet, people!

Great fun as always and I never need an excuse to tell my Alan from Shed Seven story...

Another episode in the can... Paul and Nick talked all things 1994 earlier today, from serial killer Fred West to TLC's Waterfalls. And no, there is no other link connecting these two things other than the year in question. Keep your eyes and ears peeled for this one. Next up though will be 1987.

This is the podcast that I'm proud to be the sometime co-host of. It's essentially about music, but so much more. Because music is more than just the music, isn't it? Feel free to dive in and swim around. New episodes every - or at least, most - weeks.
