Music She Missed

Stung - (The Police and Sting)

We are thrilled to be joined by first-time guest host and Sting Superfan Jenny this week! In a great episode, we open with one of our silliest tangential questions ever, briefly touch on stalkery boyfriends and the film career of Sarah Michelle Gellar before eventually getting into the subject at hand - The podcast-instigating band Sting and the Police! Also just Sting! We will get Rachel’s evaluation, but stay tuned afterward for some accidentally-recorded bonus chat with Jenny and Aaron! Sting pun!

Long Live the King (B B King)

Our latest episode opens with a discussion of European Royalty before smoothly segueing to a discussion of the one true Sovereign of the Blues himself - Mr. B B King! After learning that B B King was NOT that guy who walked on the moon (WHAT?) we dive deep on this influential figure before Rachel blesses us with her evaluation - is B. B. A A Plus Plus?  Or is the Thrill gone away?

No Country For Dead Dogs (Johnny Cash)

You say Podcast, I say Podcast (Ella Fitzgerald)

On this week’s episode, we briefly discuss regional pronunciation before getting to the heart of the matter - First Lady of Song, Queen of Jazz, Ella Fitzgerald! We never do find out what a tisket is, or a tasket, but we DO find out - Does Ella leave Rachel Bewitched, or just Bothered and Bewildered?

Upload Girl (Billy Joel)

This week we continue to delve deep on Rachel’s journey of musical self discovery in an effort to answer an early question: Does Rachel prefer rock music or rock AND roll music? To this end, we examine a man who is a giant of songwriting and performing in at least one of those two apparently distinct genres - Billy Joel! We discuss how Rachel could possibly have missed this ever-present creative force, and debate whether he is at times grating or just an all-time great. Where will Rachel come down on this discussion? Should he stay Just the Way He Is, or is he Moving Out of her musical rotation?

“The (Wo)Man Who Missed The World (of Music)” (David Bowie)

Is there intelligent life in space? Are there aliens at area fifty something? Is Independence Day based on a true story? We raise these questions and less before forgetting them entirely and moving on to a moderately related artist - David Bowie! We are joined by lifelong Bowie/Alison fan Michael to help us make sense of this Space Oddity and to find out - Is Bowie one of Rachel’s new Heroes, or does he make her want to Ch-ch-ch-change the station?
