That Record Got Me High Podcast
For this special episode, Rob asked artist, musician and flight attendant Cori Elba - who ALSO happens to be his daughter - to curate a playlist of songs by female artists/female-fronted bands that had an effect on her life. As you'll hear, these aren't just 'favorite songs', but songs she's listened to literally hundreds of times and that ultimately played a huge role in her development as an independent, badass female human. Songs discussed in this episode: Real Wild Child - Joan Jett & The Blackhearts; Just A Flight Attendant, Incel - Cori...

That Record Got Me High Podcast
This week's guest, singer Anne Richmond Boston (longtime member of Atlanta band The Swimming Pool Q’s), brings us World Party and their wonderfully effortless pop-rock gem, 'Goodbye Jumbo'.

Songs discussed in this episode: Put The Message In The Box (World Party cover) - Mary Chapin Carpenter and The Mountain Goats; More Than One Heaven - The...

S9E458 - Blur 'Parklife' with Corey duBrowa
That Record Got Me High Podcast
Blur's third album, 1994's 'Parklife', was released the same year as Oasis' debut 'Definitely Maybe'. And while many saw this as Britpop's answer to a Beatles/Stones rivalry, none other than Ray Davies himself considered Blur - and especially Parklife - as the heir apparent to ANOTHER classic British band, The Kinks. This week's returning guest Corey duBrowa once again brings the goods as he and Rob attempt to unpack this UK Classic. Songs discussed in this episode: Girls & Boys (Blur cover) - Terry Edwards and The Scapegoats; Love You (Syd Barrett cover) - Graham Coxon; For Tomorrow,...

S9E457 - Neil Young 'Landing On Water' with Rossellini
That Record Got Me High Podcast
Derisively referred to as "Nobody's favorite Neil Young album", Young's 1986 release 'Landing On Water' was conceived at a time when his own record label, Geffen, sued him for creating albums unrepresentative of his familiar style. This week's guest, Musician/Filmmaker Rossellini, contends that this confoundingly claustrophobic release - filled with icy-loud drums, synclavier and synthesizers - deserves a second look. Songs discussed in this episode: Hippie Dream (Neil Young cover) - The Slags; A Comment On Ritual - The Nation Of Ulysses; Wonderin', Mr...

That Record Got Me High Podcast
This week's guest, writer, director, producer, journalist and musician Gabriel Rotello, brings us the stunning debut studio album by Patti Smith, 'Horses'. Gabriel's latest book, 'The CBGB Conspiracy', is a gritty mystery novel set during the sweltering NYC summer of 1977, with Son of Sam on the prowl and the city rocked by the blackout.
