MODERN MUSICOLOGY

We sure do love a list! And Loudwire has put out their list of 80s bands that should have been bigger! And we have a lot to say about this list -- the ones we agree with, the ones we don't really like, and the ones who may not have deserved to have been any bigger than they were. Plus we each list the 80s bands we love that we think should have been bigger. 

But first we have some music news to cover with the passings of Dave Mason and Alan Osmond, plus a sad announcement from the Indigo Girls. 

We'd love to hear your thoughts about 80s bands that should have been bigger. Drop us a line at [email protected] or just leave a comment on our socials or whatever podcast platform you're listening to us.

FIVE Killer Ace Frehley Songs!

This month on Alan's Record Bin we celebrate the 75th birthday of KISS lead guitarist Ace Frehley. We dig back through the record collection and focus on Ace's early career as a member of KISS and his subsequent emergence as a solo artist with FIVE (okay, SIX) killer tracks! Ace was just as much a force in KISS as Gene or Paul, and this show highlights some of his unique contributions. 

What's your favorite Ace songs? Drop me a line at [email protected] or just leave a comment on our socials or whatever podcast platform you're listening to us.

AI is arguably the biggest technological revolution of our lifetime, but it's certainly not without controversy. For every positive application in medicine, science, engineering, etc. there are questions about how far AI should go. Most particularly, the use of AI in the arts is a hot-button issue. Can AI be used legitimately in music, literature, and visual art? Does it threaten to replace human creativity? Is it truly nothing more than the theft of creators' work? We speak with Walter Hieber, founder and owner of PrometheanLink Business Solutions, who helps us make sense of this scary new world we live and create in.

Classical Music 

Anthony and Stephanie are "on assignment," so Rob and Alan take the opportunity to discuss one of their shared passions: Classical Music. We talk about our mutual love of classical, how we first came to classical, some of our favorite pieces, and how a new listener can get acclimated to the music. 

You'll hear about the music of Beethoven, Mozart, Tchaikovsky, Shostakovic and other Russian composers, and more.

5 Forgotten AOR Songs

This week Alan from Modern Musicology launches a new side-project! In this series of shows, I'll tell stories behind some of the albums in my collection. This week, we're talking about 5 Forgotten AOR Songs! These are tracks that got airplay on Album Oriented Rock radio stations back in the day but have mostly been left behind, frozen like a moment in time. 

You'll hear about two men who walked away from bands at the height of their popularity, a band that was poised to be huge but never quite got there, a singer with a big voice who never quite found her audience, and a new band that maybe sounded a little too much like bigger, more established band. 

What's your favorite forgotten song from the AOR era? Drop me a line at [email protected] or just leave a comment on our socials or whatever podcast platform you're listening to us.
