#15 - Favorite Opening Tracks EVER

Monday Mar 21, 2022

An opening track should be more than simply the first song you hear on an album. A really good opening track sets the tone; it tells you what to expect from the rest of the album. But the BEST opening tracks are a statement of intent. It's a declaration. It's shots fired. We talk about some of our favorite opening tracks ever with our friend Courtland Lewis.  What are your favorites? Do you disagree with any of our picks? Did we miss one that you love? Tell us what it is and why it's great! Email us at modernmusicology1@gmail.com or leave us a comment wherever you're listening! https://www.facebook.com/ModernMusicology https://twitter.com/ModrnMusicology https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCk-MlcGy5u3fK1j4bVty1Kw Modern Musicology is part of the Earth Station One podcast network. https://esonetwork.com/

Talking Music Books with author Nick Griffiths!

Monday Feb 21, 2022

In this episode we're joined by author Nick Griffiths, whose new book DeadStar: Who the Hell Was Garth Tyson? was released January 2022. We also discuss some of our favorite music books, fiction and non-fiction, that we've read in recent years. About DeadStar:  Garth Tyson wanted to be the next David Bowie. He fell short. Waaaay short. Burnt out, he fled the stage at Glastonbury '85, having been pelted with mud, and was never seen again. Decades after Garth's disappearance, former bandmates, friends, relatives, lovers, music-biz execs and two fans (you try finding more) reunite to tell Garth's compelling, tragicomic tale. https://www.amazon.com/DeadStar-Who-Hell-Garth-Tyson/dp/1803690135/ref=sr_1_1?crid=232EJPV5ROOMP&keywords=deadstar+nick+griffiths&qid=1645476442&sprefix=nick+griffiths%2Caps%2C336&sr=8-1
