The Way-Back Music Machine Podcast

We can't believe it but we are on our 27th road trip. This week, we have the addition of a record player in the car as we drive. Tony got a used one, and with a stack of wax, we are ready for our drive, just like in 1956 when Chrysler unleashed their built in record players in some of their models of cars. How did it work? Well, listen and we will let you know.

Then, we visit The Chelsea Hotel. Leonard Cohen wrote about it, Janis Joplin stayed there and something tragic happened there in 1978. This event involved the bass player for a notorious punk band and his girlfriend.

Finally, The Simpsons have had a long list of famous guests. Johnny Cash, Elton John, George Harrison, Ringo Starr, even Elizabeth Taylor came out of retirement for the show. Paul McCartney was did a guest spot, along with his wife Linda. But they had a certain stipulation. We talk about the episode, and maybe you will be amazed.

All of that, plus our Beatle moment, charts and a lot of chat. Episode 27 of The Way-Back Music Machine, is ready and we couldn't be more excited!
