this podcast is going to be all about 60's music. the goal with this podcast is to educate a younger generation on one of the greatest decades of music of all time, and to prove to people that Millennials can love 60's music as well and it's not just for Baby boomers. Each week I"m going to review one song by one artist from the 60's and split the podcast into two halfs. first half is going to be my perspective and my opinion on the song and why I think it's so good or why I don't think it's so great. then I'm going to talk about the history behind the group or artist that did the song and talk about the behind the scenes industry people and places that helped make it a hit (writers and producers, session musicians and band members and recording studios and chart positions, etc.) I will occasionally interview industry people from back then either over the phone or in person to give you a better glimpse of how the business worked back then and how much has changed since then, and to educate younger people on their careers and the songs they made famous to the people listening that may not be familiar with their music at all.
Hey Guys! So I'm back with another episode for the free version of my podcast. I unfortunately did not wind up going to that event I was telling you guys about.

VERY soon, FINALLY, I will be launching the crowdfunding campaign for my next EP & I'm VERY excited about FINALLY doing that. what was the holdup with launching this? well, to be honest with you guys, I was experiencing a pretty major roadblock with launching this, but as of last week, I was able to work out a solution to this roadblock so very soon, I will be posting about this crowdfunding campaign for this next EP & you will be hearing more about the songs I'll be recording for this next EP as well (and I think you may already know about these songs if you have been listening to my podcast). but anyways, more on that later. so June is black music month but it's also the month of Fathers Day as well, and I thought I might as well kill two birds with one stone by doing a song by a black R&B/Soul group & also do a Father's day themed song as well. here's the link to that song so you can listen to it:

hey Guys! so as promised, I am back with another episode for the free version of this podcast and honestly guys, I have no updates for you regarding my music. I did break my writers block to write a new song recently, but I'm experiencing an issue with getting back into the studio to record these new songs I have been working on for a while. I'm looking at my options in terms of where I could record these songs, cause it's tough guys. It's gonna cost me so much money to go back into the studio to record these songs, but I"m not even close to making enough money from my music to pay for that studio time. so it's been rough guys, but I'll see what I can do about either a, recording somewhere else with someone else, or B, look into crowdfunding the next EP, if I can do it right without me coming across as desperate for money. but anyways, I wanted to full fill my obligation to you by putting out two episodes a month. so here's my last one for this month, and I'll start fresh again next month with another two episode. here's the link to the last song I talked about just in case you wanted to listen to it:

Hey guys! so i'm back this month with another couple of free podcast episodes. I have been noticing that even though my frequency as to when I'm releasing these episodes has dramatically slowed down to 2 a month now, I"m still getting the same amount of listeners every time I release an episode. and while it may be frustrating that I can't grow past that, it's still great to see the consistency with the amount of listeners I"m getting with no advertising money being spent with this particular show. I'm definitely happy about that. but anyways, I thought about what to cover on my show next, and I noticed it had been a while since I had covered an R&B instrumental song on my podcast, and I thought to myself, let's do another one! so here's my next foray into that genre with a GREAT R&B/Soul number from back then. here's the link to it just in case you want to check it out:

I would really appreciate it if you guys could listen to it because the more organic listeners I get on Spotify, the more the Spotify Algorithm will reward me. right now it's unfortunately punishing artists & bands who are getting less then a 1,000 streams on Spotify per month, even if their music is REALLY good. here's the link to where you can listen to it right here:

I hope you guys are doing well & I will talk to you all soon.
Hey Guys! So here's something that you may not expect from me. I had a sudden inspiration to cover another female artist on my podcast recently. and normally I don't do back to back female artists on my show, but this song came to mind that has a very interesting lyrical premise, and I just couldn't pass on breaking it down & analyzing it. in this song, the singer talks about something you hear a lot about today, but the thing is this song came out 60 years ago, so she was 60 years ahead of her time with the lyrics in this song, so that's pretty cool. here's the link to where you can listen to it right here:

https://themillennialthrowbackmachine.supercast.com/
also I would REALLY appreciate it if you could listen to my music as well. look guys, Spotify is penalizing artists for paying for fake streams but, if you guys listen to my songs, then that's all organic listens & it will help with getting my stuff noticed on Spotify. I don't pay for listeners of my podcast, so I know that everyone that listens to this show are all real people. here's the link to where you can listen to it right here:
https://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/samlwilliams/an-old-soul-with-new--remiagined-things

Hey Guys! So I am back with my second free episode for this month. I'm wrapping up woman's history month with another episode talking about the history behind the last song & artist I talked about on my podcast, Dusty Springfield. now I want you guys to understand that if this episode, for whatever reason, is hard to listen to, maybe I"m just a little bit all over the place & disorganized with my facts, maybe I should try to write down what I say on my podcast before saying it, please email me at samltwilli@icloud.com, cause like I always say for this show, I"m open to all kinds of feedback for my podcast (both good and bad) I'm always looking to improve this show, so I would appreciate any kind of feedback I can get for this podcast. Otherwise, I'll just keep doing what I have been doing for this podcast. here's the link to the last song I talked about just in case you wanted to listen to it:

also, I would really appreciate it if you guys could subscribe to the premium version of my podcast. Cause here's the thing about this version of my podcast. With this free version of my podcast, you guys are kind of getting the minimal surface level information about this music, but on this premium version of my podcast, you are truly getting the deep hard to find facts & stories about these songs from the people who were there making this music back in the 60's. so in a sense, if your not crazy about this particular version of my podcast, maybe you'll like this version instead:
https://themillennialthrowbackmachine.supercast.com/
also please do stream my last EP guys. look, I could definitely get penalized if I use a play listing promotion company to grow my streams on Spotify, so that means the only way my songs could grow in streaming numbers is if you guys listen to it & share it with your friends organically. here's the link to my songs right here:
https://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/samlwilliams/an-old-soul-with-new--remiagined-things
also please do check out the official Spotify & Youtube playlists for my podcast. this is where you'll hear all of the music that I have talked about on my podcast. if you would like to suggest to me songs I should talk about next on my podcast that I haven't yet, please email me at samltwilli@icloud.com, you can also follow me & reach out to me on Instagram & Tik Tok @iheartoldies:

Hope you guys are doing well & I will talk to you all soon.
hey guys! so sorry for again the delayed release of a free episode of my podcast. let me tell you something guys. it is SO HARD balancing doing this version of my podcast and doing the premium subscription version of my podcast. I have been recording SO MANY new interview episodes lately, and if I"m being totally honest with you, it is has been REALLY difficult to find the time to do the free version of my podcast, among also managing classes for the school that I"m going to, as well as trying to work on new music. but I'm not gonna lie, things have been great for me lately. It has been SUCH A JOY doing these interviews for the premium version of my podcast, and it has been SO COOL uncovering new facts about some of my favorite records of all time from the people that were there & made this music happen back then. But I digress, I'm really gonna do my best to try & upload a new free episode of my podcast for a few reasons, one I don't want to neglect you guys & only release premium interview episodes & not give you guys any free content, and also, while I have been able to interview so many great 60's music legends on my podcast, there are TONS of records from the 60's where pretty much no one is alive today who were involved in the making of these records, so I couldn't interview those particular people, and I think I want to make an effort to try & cover those records on this free version of my podcast, so I'lm keeping that music alive while interviewing as many OG people who made these songs back then as I can for the premium version of my podcast. as I'm doing this week. so it's women's history month, and I thought I would kill two birds with one stone & do a song by a British Singer & have it be a female. here's the link to this week's song just in case you wanted to listen to it:

Hey Guys, once again my apologies for the delay with releasing part two of the last song & group I was talking about on my podcast. I was hit with a family tragedy recently so I have been tied up with managing the house while my parents have been gone (and we have two dogs now) but I did manage to record part two this week, and also, surprisingly enough, this group is associated with something related to Black History Month & I talk about that with this episode of this podcast. here's the link to last week's song just in case you want to listen to it:

hey guys! so I actually am back with another free episode of this podcast. the reason as to why this one came up so quickly is because this time I had a pretty clear idea as to which song I wanted to talk about next on my podcast. so I decided to go down a slightly different direction this time with this particular next song I'm going to talk about with this podcast. I honestly have only done this once with my podcast, and I thought it would be a lot of fun to do this again, but I thought it would be a good idea to roast another 60's song that I"m frankly not a fan of, to show you guys that while yes, there were many great songs from the 60's, ther were some not so great songs from that era that kind of stink. & this song is certainly one of them. I definitely not a fan of this song & maybe after you hear me talk about how much I don't like it, you'll agree with me & think that it sucks as well. but if you dare to check it out, here's the link to where you can listen to it:

Hey Guys! So I am back with another free version of this podcast. So I have been telling some people (friends and people I meet on social media) about my podcast (specifically my young friends around my age) and I truly hope you'll spread the word amongst people your age about this podcast, because that is what this show is for. I have said that since episode one of me doing this podcast 6 years ago that this podcast is designed to educate younger millennials about 60's music & the history behind it and I will continue to say that from here on out. I also think there are tons of millennials who are fans of this stuff & are hungry to learn more about this quite amazing music from the 60's, and this podcast is designed to fill that void for them. but anyways, this episode goes into the history behind the last song & artist I talked about on my podcast & I also go into specifics as to which studio musicians played on his records & which studios his songs were recorded in. here's the link to the last song I talked about just in case you wanted to listen to it:

Hey Guys! Happy New Year! once again, my apologies again for the delay with dropping a new episode of my podcast, the beginning of this year was kind of a doozy for me. I spent the first week of the year sick/under the weather & then my soon to be 2 year old niece was at my studio for a while, and when she is there, it's difficult to record any music or podcasts because she is very loud. but I finally got around to recording a new episode for you guys, and I also have been very busy doing interviews for the premium subscription version of this podcast, and now that I have two dogs at my studio, when i'm home alone I have to keep an eye on one of them so it's hard to just go into my room & record my podcast sometimes. But I thought I would kick the year off with a very cool winter song that you may not be familiar with. A pretty underrated one I might add. I love this one & I hope you like it too. here's the link to it right here:

Hey Guys! I know it's been a while since I have released an episode of this podcast, it's been becoming a little more difficult to find the time record these free podcast episodes, as I often think about what song I should talk about next, & that can take me a while to do that, and I also have been getting wrapped up with recording episodes for the premium subscription version of this podcast, so that has sucked up a lot of my free time, as well as taking care of my responsibilities with my current living situation, so it's been a little challenging for me to release these free episodes, but I'm doing my best to do that, while at the same time, thinking about new music to produce as well. I wanted to share with you guys the link to the last song I talked about on my podcast just in case you forgot the song. here it is right here:

if you found out some GREAT information about the last song I talked about on my podcast that you didn't know about & your around my age (your a Millennial/Gen Z) please email me at samltwilli@icloud.com, you can also follow me & reach out to me on Instagram & Tik Tokr @iheartoldies. looking back on this year, it was a very busy year for me for interview episodes, I got lots of great information from guests on my podcast talking about the history behind all of these great songs from back then, also it was a busy year of music releases, but hopefully by next year I'll be in the studio recording some new songs & of course I'll be releasing new interview episodes for the premium subscription version of my podcast. I hope you guys enjoyed this year, I"ll try my best to keep up with putting out new episodes for the free version of this podcast, but it's been tough for me to do that as I do have a big life outside of this podcast. but I hope you guys are doing great & I will see you & talk to you all next year.
Hey Guys! Sorry it's been so long since I have released an episode, there's a lot of reasons as to why I'm not as frequent as I was before with releasing new episodes of this show, I'm balancing a bunch of other things right now, with recording & releasing new interview episodes of the premium version of my podcast, to writing & recording more music, and also dealing with my current responsibilities of where I'm staying at currently. also, I put a lot of thought into which song to talk about next on my podcast, and that can take me some time to make that decision. but as always, I do appreciate those who still listen to my podcast despite the fact that it is often very difficult for me to show up to this free version of my podcast so frequently, but I definitely do my best to do so. As I was looking through the past episodes of my podcast, I had noticed it had been quite a long time since I have done a song from Muscle Shoals, Alabama, and I thought why don't I do another one. there were so many great R&B/Soul Pop songs recorded in that small little town in the south, it was definitely hard for me to pick a song to talk about, but I definitely picked a good one. here's the link to it just in case you wanted to listen to it:

I appreciate those of you who still listen to this podcast even if the amount of episodes I put out isn't as frequent as they used to be, but trust me, I"m still doing this podcast as I am constantly releasing & scheduling interviews for the premium version of my podcast, it's just that the solo episodes are not as much as they were before.
Hey Guys! so I'm back with another episode of my podcast. I decided to take the week of Thanksgiving off but I still do appreciate all of you who continue to listen to this podcast even if the episodes are less frequent in terms of when I'm releasing them. I"m sure you guys know why that is by now but just in case you don't, I spend a lot of time deciding/figuring out what song by which artist/band to cover next on my podcast, and sometimes it takes me a little bit of time to make a decision on that, and I always decide that before I start to record my next episode. On top of everything else outside of my podcast that I have going on right now, it can be challenging to find the time to do this show, a long with figuring out what song and artist to cover next on my podcast. Since I have done so many episodes of this podcast, I still try to keep it fresh while still staying in my niche, which definitely isn't an easy task. but I do my best. anyways, I'm excited for this week's episode of my podcast, cause here I talk about a band from the 60's that you may not be aware, but you may be able to relate to their story. here's the link to last song I talked about just in case you wanted to listen to it:

Hey Guys! So I'm back with another episode of my podcast. once again my apologies for the delay in terms of me putting out an episode of my podcast. this one took a while because this week's song has some pretty complex harmony going on with it, so it took me some time to try & analyze it, but I"m back with another premium episode for this podcast. I don't often get personal with my episodes but I can personally relate to this song & I dive into exactly how & why I'm able to relate to it in this episode. Plus it was my birthday a few weeks ago so normally I take the week of my birthday off for my podcast. I hope you guys enjoy this one & for the first time in a while, I'm somewhat dipping my toe into the 70's with this one, as this song is a hybrid 60's & 70's song. more on that for the next episode. but anyways, here's the link to the latest song for this episode just in case you wanted to listen to it:

I'm glad I'm somewhat branching out into the 70's with this podcast, while still keeping it in the 60's. the next episode will have some crossover into the 70's in terms of Rock & Roll History but it will still be interesting to listen to for sure. I think I'm gonna put out one more episode this month before Thanksgiving.
Hey Guys! sorry for the delay in releasing another episode. it's been very hectic with me in terms of what I have going on with my school and also doing interviews for the premium version of my podcast. but I wanted to give you guys another free episode of this podcast to give you guys a part two on the last episode I released. I have also been busy keeping up with posting new content to my Tik Tok Page (which can feel like a full time job sometimes) but I wanted to show up for this free version of my podcast & not let down the organic listeners that continue to check out this podcast. here's the link to the last song & artist I talked about on my podcast:

Stay well guys & definitely keep things groovy!
Hey Guys! I hope you are all doing great. So my Second EP came out last month. You know it's very difficult to get a piece of music noticed & listened to by a lot of people when you have zero money going towards the marketing for it. I'm hoping with the right kind of sync placements that these songs will find an audience & they will get noticed on a much larger scale outside of just people I know who I send my music to one day. but if you guys decide to listen to it, that will help me out tremendously because all of the streams you put towards my music will be totally organic & it will be streams that I don't have to pay for via marketing. so that will be great. but anyways, this week I decided to go back to the ealry 60's and do another teen idol. I haven't done one of these guys in quite a long time. specifically an east coast teen idol as well. here's the link to this week's song just in case you wanted to listen to it:

Hey Guys! so it's the last day of September so I wanted to get one more episode in before the month is over. a lot of this episode is going to be review because even though I don't do it all of the time, I have covered Motown in the past, so it definitely isn't uncharted territory for me. but it still should be interesting if you haven't heard me talk about Motown in a while, but I also talk about another successful independent record company from the 60's in this episode, that actually ties in Motown. also my next music video is out, please do watch it & leave a comment if you love it. here's the link to the last song I talked about on my podcast just in case you forgot it:

Hey Guys! Sorry for the long delay with releasing this episode. I have been dealing with an equipment crisis in my studio that I think is resolved now but I will keep you all posted on that. if your a musician and one of your pieces of musical equipment that you use on a regular basis isn't working all of a sudden, you become a one track mind & all you can think about is how to fix it. so that took over my train of thought for a while, but I definitely haven't forgotten about you all, so I wanted to give you part two of the last group & song that I talked about. also more updates, my next music video comes out September 29th, so get ready because the thing I have been talking about for quite sometime is finally coming out, so that's exciting. here's the link to the last song we talked about just in case you wanted to listen to it again:

I would also love to hear from you if your a younger listeners of this podcast as well. so this week I'm keeping it within the rock theme, I"m just doing a slightly different sub genre of Rock. this song is honestly quite adult for a 60's song, so I will probably put an explicit content labeling for this one. it's honestly one of the most adult songs of the 60's. here's the link to where you can listen to it right here:

Hey Guys!

But anyways, I thought since it's still technically summertime, I should cover a song within a genre that very much sounds like summer. the genre is surf rock, and this week's song definitely glorifies that genre for sure. here's the link to this week's song just in case you wanted to listen to it:

Hey Guys!

Hey Guys! So I think some of you probably know this by now, but I recently decided to stick with a three episodes a month release schedule with this podcast. it has become harder and harder for me to try to put out 4 a month these days, between my school classes & the internship I'm doing for my school and on top of that, doing interviews for the premium version of my podcast, I definitely have my hands full at the moment, so more then likely, I won't have a new episode the first week of the month, but the remaining three weeks of the month, I will have a new episode. if that changes I'll let you know, or you'll get notified with an extra episode being released in the month, but anyways, I'm very excited to dive into this week's song. June is now technically Black Music Month, so I"m celebrating that with covering some great songs by some black artists, & this week's episode I'm gonna be covering an absolutely FANTASTIC song from a REALLY good black artist. I had fun breaking down this song for you & here's the link to it just in case you wanted to listen to it:

Hey Guys! My apologies for the delayed release of this episode. my life can get so crazy sometimes that putting out an episode just isn't feasible sometimes. but I never forget to record one but sometimes I just don't have that moment to myself where I can sit down & release an episode. a lot of times I"m at events or I"m doing an interview episode for the premium feed, so more times then not I get pulled into a bunch of different directions & time slips away & an episode doesn't get released. but just know that I never try to leave you guys hanging for too long. so I'm back with part two of Bobby Darin. this one I"m very excited about because he was such an interesting artist in so many ways, and in this episode I dig deep into his career & just how prolific the guy really was in his lifetime. here's the link to the song I did when I covered him not too long ago:

Hey Guys! So I'm back with another episode of this podcast. & I'm happy to be back because I recently saw that my listeners for this show are officially back to normal in terms of listener numbers! that's very exciting! so yeah, as per usual, things have been very eventful with me, but I'm pretty sure I talked about all of the things that happened with me in the last podcast, but if I didn't, I definitely spoke about them in this episode. but yeah I was at a cool 60's music related event last weekend because of my podcast, so yeah, all good stuff. it was a tribute show for a 60's music related compilation called Nuggets put on by the Wild Honey Foundation. I actually got to talk to some people who will probably be potential future podcast guests. I was so inspired by watching a movie about this singer/songwriter from the 60's that I decided to cover him this week on my podcast. here's the link to this week's song right here:

I gotta say it's really starting to pay off for me. I just got into a 60's music related event for free & I got to go to a legendary 60's music recording studio in LA, and it's all because of what I"m doing on this podcast. so that's all great, & definitely listen to my latest song. I absolutely think that it's one of my strongest & greatest songs. I'll talk to you guys more next week.
Hey Guys! Once again, I apologize for not releasing an episode this last week and a half. it is getting harder & harder for me to do this podcast with everything I have going on in my life right now. between school & music production & songwriting & at home responsibilities. but I do appreciate the fact that my regular listener numbers are starting to come back so that makes me happy that me not releasing an episode on one particular week doesn't effect my listenership at all. but as always, things have been incredibly eventful for me lately. so there is a lot of catching up to do on my end with you guys, and I don't think there is enough character space in this text description for this episode to fill you in with everything that has been going on with me lately. so I think I'll save some of it for next week. one thing I'll tell you is that I actually got to see Rock & Roll History for myself in person recently. I will catch you up on that next week. here's the link to last song just in case you didn't listen to it or forgot about it:

I'm very proud of writing this song, and there is a spooky/eerie element to it, and I will talk more about that with you next week. it's one of those songs where if your a lady who listens to it, you'll listen to it & be like "Sam is a good man" and I'll leave it at that until next week. but anyways, I decided to switch things up & do an instrumental song & I noticed I haven't done a Chicago song in a long time, so I decided to kill two birds with one stone & do a Chicago song that's an instrumental. here's the link to that just in case you wanted to listen to it:

Hey Guys! I wanted to apologize for missing the last few weeks. been so sidetracked with music production & songwriting that a lot of my free extra time has been sucked up with that. Please know that even though I still love to do this podcast, it's definitely not the only thing that I"m doing in my life currently. and there's never enough hours in the day to do everything I usually do on a weekly basis, so some things take more time than others. also I don't always have an artist or group/song picked out in advance, so a lot of times I make that decision super last minute. and my I'm not always in the right headspace to think about music trivia/history and music analyzation. I really hope you understand that, but I am happy to be back with another episode of my podcast, and this time I'm reintroducing another interesting segment of my show that I haven't done in a few years, and that is review a song by an artist or group I have already talked about on my podcast but I haven't done again in a long time. this is the second time I"m doing this so that is why this episode the second retake episode of this podcast. here's the link to this week's song just in case you wanted to hear it:

Hey Guys! Happy International Women's day! I'm back with another episode of my podcast, and since it's women's history month, I decided to do a song by a female artist. I haven't done one of those in a minute, but also, I have a song coming out next week on the 15th. and man am I nervous to release that song, but hopefully nothing bad happens to me as a result of me releasing the song. but also, next week I will put out the next interview episode for the premium version of my podcast. I will do it after this weekend's Oscar telecast because the person I'm interviewing was a musician who played on Elvis's records. quite a lot of them actually. and I know the new Elvis biopic is nominated for a bunch of awards. Hopefully Austin Butler wins best actor. if he does, I'll release the next interview episode. but anyways, here's the link to this week's song just in case you wanted to listen to it:

Hey Guys! crazy how I'm almost at 200 episodes for this podcast. now my bday is next week, so that means no new episode for next week. but after next week, I will come back with a special 200th episode for this podcast, and that will more then likely be another original song special episode where I'll be breaking down one of my own songs, and that will probably be the song that I just put out. but anyways, I hope you guys are enjoying that song btw. Would definitely love to hear your thoughts on it. Anyways, this week's episode is a special Halloween themed episode where I dive into a very cool Halloween themed song that you may not be very familiar with, and while it doesn't sound like a typical Halloween song, there are some lyrical and musical elements to it make it eery sounding enough to be considered a Halloween song. here's the link to it just in case you wanted to check it out:

Hey Guys! so my show last night was ok, It honestly taught me a lot about EXACTLY what I don't want for my live shows, and it also taught me the very valuable lesson on how building a fan base online is much more important these days then playing live, but besides that, I hate to start this fresh new week off negatively, but one of the people I tried to get on my podcast recently passed away, and this one really hit me hard because he was a friend of mine and I will definitely miss him, but luckily I was able to talk to him on the phone & all of the great info he gave me over the phone I wrote down most of it on my phone.so that's the main thing. and so in tribute to him, I'm doing one of the songs that he worked on as a recording engineer. this one was arguably one of the best songs he ever worked on, and next week I will provide to you some very cool behind the scenes information about this song & how it was made. for now, please do enjoy this song & here's the link to where you can listen to it:

hey Guys! MAN it's hot out where I live in LA currently, so this week I"m talking about a song that totally fits this massive heat wave that's happening in LA right now, and it's a song about none other then the sun that inhabits the state that I live in, which is California. I haven't done a Garage Rock song in quite a while (at least since I covered the Music Machine on my podcast) so this will be fun to talk about again, and next week I'll dive more into the history behind this week's song. don't forget I have a song coming out next month on the 19th, and I"m playing a release show on the 11th at Bar Lubitsch in West Hollywood, so I would appreciate it if you guys could come out to the show. but anyways, here's the link to this week's song just in case you wanted to listen to it:

Hey Guys! So as of this week, I have officially moved my podcast over to my new host Anchor, and I just want to say that if you are STILL listening to my podcast after I made this switch, I want to say THANK YOU SO MUCH for continuing to listen to my podcast during this changeover. It was rough because while I was able to save my listener date to my previous host, I was unable to transfer it to my new host. so I am starting from a MUCH lower number of total listeners then what I had before from my previous host (initially I was at 30k listeners in total, now I'm at around 600 listeners in total) so as you can see, it will take many years to get back to where I was before but with your help, I can get there. for now, please do keep listening to my show, here's the link to this week's song just in case you wanted to listen to it. This week I"m doing my first car song ever on my podcast, and it's one that sounds A LOT like the Beach Boys, but it wasn't one of their songs. here's the link to that:

Hey Guys! so I have some VERY exciting news for you. I JUST got the final mixes back for my second EP! so now the only thing I"m waiting on is the artwork for the singles plus I"m waiting for them to get mastered. but as soon as I have those things back THEN I will decide on release dates for the singles, and probably book my next show (in LA) too. so that's where I"m at right now, also BIG news for this podcast, I will be moving hosting services soon. I'll keep you guys informed about that but it's gonna happen within the next two months, but first I need to grab my listener data off of my current host, and luckily, thank god I will be able to grab all of it from the start of me doing this podcast to right now for free starting next month.so when that happens, nothing will change about how you listen to this podcast except for if you happen to listen to this show on my hosting service's website, that will change to a new listening page for my new host in which I will be moving to that very soon. also I'm still offering ANYONE who subscribes to the premium version of this podcast a sneak peak of my upcoming EP, so here's where you can sign up if you wanna hear a little something from this EP before it's out. otherwise you'll have to wait

those. and also, this week's song is COMPLETELY different from last week. this song has such a calm and relaxing vibe, completely unlike the upbeat dance party Rock & roll vibes of the last song.

So it's on a VERY special and rare occasion that I do interviews on my podcast, sometimes I do them, but most of the time I don't, but whenever I do, I try to bring in interesting guests, and most of the time it's someone from the 60's, and why I bring in a music industry figure from the 60's is so that way they can share the story behind the songs they helped create, but they can also share a lot of cool memories about their time in the music industry back in the 60's, but it's also because in 10-15 years, most of these people will be gone and a lot of their stories will not be told unless they go on a podcast to talk about their life in the music industry back in the 60's, and since this is an internet podcast, this will live on the internet forever and will never go away, so future generations will be able to listen to these interviews and see what it was like to be in the music industry back in the 60's, and many times there are learning lessons from these people as they often were taken advantage of by other industry people and many of them did not profit from the massive success they had back then. so hopefully the long lasting systemic trend of people getting royally screwed in the music industry ends at some point, and hopefully these interview episodes will help make that happen, and this podcast episode, I have someone on that shares one of those stories, and it's familiar, but it also shines a light on the unfair treatment women specifically were given in the entertainment industry at that time (even though honestly, men got screwed over too, but women often got the worst of it a lot of times) and it's honestly has been a long time since I had a woman guest on my podcast, but I hope this opens your eyes to some of the awful things that women went through in the music industry at that time, and that just because someone was involved in making hit records, that doesn't mean that they were millionaires as people imagined them to be, cause often times, someone was making a HUGE profit on these records, but was it the people behind the scenes?, most certainly not. Session musicians were like constructions workers. they clocked in, did their work, got paid , they clocked out then they left the studio they were at cutting records, and came home. but instead of building houses or bridges, they were sight reading charts & blasting out songs every thirty or so minutes during 3 hour union sessions at major recording studios, and then hearing their songs they played on on Top 40 radio in their cars just months and weeks and sometimes even days after they played on them, and this week's guest was one of those people. you never saw her name on records, but trust me, she was there and will always be there no matter how many times you hear the songs she played on even after she is no longer here with us. She played some AMAZING flute parts on records that were HUGE and she was also a piccolo player too, so I'm very excited to have her on this week, and if your wondering when I"m gonna do this again, very soon I'll be doing more interviews. Often times I go through long Dry spells of not doing any interviews, then a bunch more come up and I do a bunch more. But to give you some context of exactly what we talk about during this interview, here are the links to some of the songs that we talked about. I will be putting these into the official playlists for this podcast, but don't be afraid to stop and listen to these songs when listening to this interview then come back to listening to this interview, it will help you get better context as to what is being talked about here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1v4twH9KbnUhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4heHLbchPKkhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fjufjv4rH0shttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=48AGnoovrRUhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ex6zh6InDmQPlease do follow me on Instagram & reach out to me on there as well: https://www.instagram.com/iheartoldies/Would love it if you could also check out more of my original music right here:https://www.samwilliamsmusic.netPlease do also check out the EP that I put out this year.

this week we will be diving into a REALLY great song about something universally relatable not just to baby boomers but to young people as well, and to be honest with you, you might not know this one, because It didn't get very high up on the charts and you don't really hear it too much on the radio today, but I will promise you you will love it, and it's actually the POLAR opposite of last week's song. it's also a very intimate chill/acoustic folky country kind of a song but trust me, it's great. next week will talk about the history behind this song and the story behind it plus some behind the scenes information behind the recording session for this song plus the history behind this artist as well. here's the link to this week's song just in case you wanted to listen to it:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t_QtrX7p0TAYou can also follow me on Instagram right here:https://www.instagram.com/iheartoldies/Please do check out more of my original music right here:https://www.samwilliamsmusic.netWould love it if you could also check out my EP that I put out this year over Memorial Day weekend, I would love it if you could let me know whatcha think of it, please do that by emailing me at samltwilli@icloud.com, or you can also reach out to me on Instagram @iheartoldies: https://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/samlwilliams/turquoise-apricotPlease do also check out the two interviews I did this year with Honk Magazine and ShoutoutLA. would love it if you could read these and let me know whatcha think of them and also, if reading these inspires you to want to meet me in person if you are based in LA and would like to meet me face to face, please email me at samltwilli@icloud.com, or you can also reach out to me on Instagram @iheartoldies: https://honkmagazine.com/sam-l-williams-talks-about-his-career-path-influence-and-new-music/https://shoutoutla.com/meet-sam-l-williams-musician-songwriter-podcast-host/Please do also check out the Official Spotify and Youtube Playlists for this podcast. here you'll be able to find all of the songs that I have talked about on my podcast so far including some of the ones that I have mentioned in interview episodes of this podcast. if you listened to these playlists and it gives you some ideas for songs I should talk about next on my podcast that I haven't yet, please email those ideas to me at samltwilli@icloud.com, or you can also reach out to me on Instagram @iheartoldies: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/21f3uBS6kU4hUF6QAC5JMjhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CS1sYR7xky8&list=PL66sgq_GAmRcXy8yKZJfVmAD14HUYj7NfDon't forget to also check out the music video that I shot this year for one of the songs that came out for the EP that I put out over Memorial day weekend, would love it if you could watch it and let me know whatcha think of it. you can do that by emailing me at samltwilli@icloud.com, you can also reach out to me on Instagram @iheartoldies: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LTbmSoW6RyYPlease do also check out the official Redbubble Merch store for this podcast. here you'll be able to find these super cool merchandise items attached with my own custom logo for this podcast. you can also find my new EP merch that is also here as well. would love it if you could check those out and let me know whatcha think of that graphic and those items as well. you can do that by emailing me at samltwilli@cloud.com, or you can also reach out to me on Instagram @iheartoldies: https://www.redbubble.com/people/60ssam95/works/36806158-keep-things-groovy?asc=u&ref=recent-ownerhttps://www.redbubble.com/shop/ap/88967481If you liked my analysis on this week's song and you fell in love with it and you want to learn more about this artist and you have never heard of them before and your a millennial, please feel free to reach out to me at samltwilli@icloud.com, or you can also reach out to me on Instagram @iheartoldies.

This week I talk about a group I have been kind of avoiding for a while because this group was a HUGE band from the 60's and their music is borderline "mainstream" but at the same time, they are almost "under the radar" that if you are of a certain age so you might know a few of their songs, but you might not know their history if your a Millennial or a Gen Z, so because of this, they do qualify as a group worth covering on my podcast, but I'm DEFINITELY not doing one of their most "Popular" songs that everyone knows, but instead, I"m doing somewhat of a deep cut by them that if you are not already familiar with their music, you might not know this song and just a heads up next week's episode might be pretty long because of how in depth their history is, but it's mainly because I"m sure a lot of you are going on summer vacation right now because cases are so down all across the US and it's a lot safer to travel now compared to last summer, so you can listen to next week's episode on your summer road trip that you might be on due to the current state of the pandemic (which isn't bad at all really).but here's the link to this week's song just in case you guys wanted to hear it:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-mZ_YDzoKmEYou can also follow me and reach out to me on Instagram right here:https://www.instagram.com/iheartoldies/please do also check out my EP Turquoise Apricot, here you'll be able to find 7 original songs of mine that I wrote & produced and played most of the instruments on. These are songs that were previously unreleased with the exception of 3 of them, so please do listen to these and let me know whatcha think of these songs, I would love to know if they have emotionally impacted you or if you can relate to them in anyway, or if you just like my overall style & genre that I fall into, you can do that by emailing me at samltwilli@icloud.com, or you can also reach out to me on Instagram @iheartoldies:https://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/samlwilliams/turquoise-apricotAlso, please do check out my cool write ups/interviews that I got recently both on Honk Magazine and ShoutoutLA. here you can read more about me and hopefully you find these write ups interesting as I reveal a lot about myself in them so you'll get a good dose of who I am both as a musician & songwriter in these two write ups if you are coming across me from the internet and you haven't me in real life. but if you do come across these and would like to meet me in real life and your based in LA, don't be afraid to get in touch with me at samltwilli@icloud.com. would love to meet you in person ESPECIALLY if your a fan of this podcast and you discovered me through that or through these two cool interviews/write ups: https://honkmagazine.com/sam-l-williams-talks-about-his-career-path-influence-and-new-music/https://shoutoutla.com/meet-sam-l-williams-musician-songwriter-podcast-host/Don't forget to also check out the official Spotify and Youtube playlists for this podcast. there you'll be able to find all of the songs that I talk about on my podcast including some of the ones that I have mentioned in interview episodes of this podcast. if you listened to these playlists and it gives you ideas for 60's songs I should cover next on my podcast that I haven't yet, please email me at samltwilli@icloud.com, you can also reach out to me on Instagram @iheartoldies:https://open.spotify.com/playlist/21f3uBS6kU4hUF6QAC5JMj?si=08bf1660f8a24fb8https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CS1sYR7xky8&list=PL66sgq_GAmRcXy8yKZJfVmAD14HUYj7NfPlease do also check the Official Redbubble Merch store for this podcast, there you'll be able to find these super cool merch items that have my own logo specifically for this podcast. if you liked the logo and would like to give me some feedback on the logo or the prices of each item in the store, please email me at samltwilli@icloud.com or you can also reach out to me on Instagram @iheartoldies:https://www.redbubble.com/people/60ssam95/works/36806158-keep-things-groovyif you liked my analysis on this week's song and your familiar with this group but you have never heard this song before and you found it interesting and your around my age, please email me at samltwilli@icloud.com, you can also reach out to me on Instagram @iheartoldies.
This week's episode is a LITTLE bit different from my previous episodes of my podcast. Since Episode one of my show, EVERY single song I have covered has been a tune from the 60's, but as most of you should know by now, I write my own music and ALL of my music is influenced by stuff from the 60's, and since I"m noticing a lot of my podcast listeners aren't listening to my own music, I figured you guys should ABSOLUTELY check out my stuff, and what better way to do that then to cover one of my songs for my podcast, so this is going to be REALLY cool because you guys are going to get my perspective on my songwriting process and my influences as a musician and producer, so since I"m not doing a 60's song this week, I'm going to be brief about the history behind this song and instead, I"m going to tell the story of what inspired me to write this song and how I constructed it structurally and what were my specific influences as far as production and arrangements for this song when I was recording it. here's the link to this week's song just in case you guys wanted to listen to it:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XMa6217J4k8&list=OLAK5uy_k0YYDbR5EmoY4EpzXve0SUgpGqAiqUBGI&index=4You can also follow me on Instagram for updates on my music & other stuff right here:https://www.instagram.com/iheartoldies/Here's where you can check out more of my original music:https://www.samwilliamsmusic.netPLEASE do check out my EP that came out on Memorial Day Weekend where you can find more of my original music, and here is where you'll be able to listen to the full length song that I wrote that I covered this week, plus some other REALLY good ones that I'll cover in future episodes of this podcast, please do let me know whatcha think of these songs and you can email me at samltwilli@icloud.com, you can also reach out to me on Instagram @iheartoldies:https://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/samlwilliams/turquoise-apricotwould love it if you could also check out my most recent features in ShoutoutLA magazine and Honk Magazine, here you'll be able to read more about me as a songwriter and musician and hear more about me in general, after reading these and if you found out some REALLY cool stuff about me and would like to meet me in person and your based in LA (And if your a real person, of course) please email me at samltwilli@icloud.com or you can also reach out to me on Instagram @iheartoldies:https://honkmagazine.com/sam-l-williams-talks-about-his-career-path-influence-and-new-music/https://shoutoutla.com/meet-sam-l-williams-musician-songwriter-podcast-host/Please do also check out the official Spotify and Youtube playlists for this podcast, here you'll be able to find all of the songs that I have talked about on my podcast including some of the ones that I have mentioned in interview episodes of this show, if you listened to these playlists and it gives you some ideas for the kind of songs I should talk about next on my podcast (or you listened to my music and want to suggest another song of mine I should next on my show), please email me at samltwilli@icloud.com, you can also reach out to me on Instagram @iheartoldies:https://open.spotify.com/playlist/21f3uBS6kU4hUF6QAC5JMj?si=7e2c1c10c39544d1https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CS1sYR7xky8&list=PL66sgq_GAmRcXy8yKZJfVmAD14HUYj7NfI would also LOVE IT if you could check out the official Redbubble Merch store for this podcast, there you'll be able to find these super cool merch items for this podcast with a logo that is specific to this podcast, and if you would like to give me feedback on the logo for this podcast, or the prices of each item in this store, you can email me at samltwilli@icloud.com, or you can also reach out to me on Instagram @iheartoldies:https://www.redbubble.com/people/60ssam95/works/36806158-keep-things-groovy?asc=u&ref=recent-ownerIf you enjoyed my analysis on one of my songs and you fell in love with this song of mine, and you have never heard it before, and if you loved hearing about my songwriting process and you like this song and the genre it's and your around my age, and you would like to hear me do the same thing again with another one of my songs for a future episode of this podcast, please email me at samltwilli@icloud.com, you can also reach out to me on Instagram @iheartoldies.

This week's song & artist is someone who tended to write about things that were dark & scary and many of his songs had an edge about them that was everything but innocent & fun, which contradicted a lot of the other music that was coming out at the same time he was coming up under. he also had a big following in another country that was influential in a huge wave of music that was coming for the American charts shortly after his heyday as a musician/songwriter. This week I break down one of his biggest hit songs but it's surprisingly not the one song that everyone knows by him, it's actually the next song he put out after his huge number one hit that every knows came out, and this week I talk about what makes this song so good musically and lyrically, so here's the link to that song just in case you wanted to listen to it:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xk_FR3341bAYou can also follow me on Instagram right here:https://www.instagram.com/iheartoldies/Please do also check out a really cool recent interview I did recently with a publication called Honk Magazine, here'll you'll really get to know me both as a musician & songwriter as well as a music historian if you are new to my podcast & haven't been listening to it for very long.

This week I'm bringing to you one of my all time FAVORITE 60's R&B/Soul Records, one that a lot of people don't know but it's REALLY good. probably one of the best that came out of that decade. and it's one that has a relatable concept that I think everyone has experienced at least once in their lives and has been used time and time again in huge Pop songs after this song has been written, and it has a really cool groove and arrangement and in next week's episode, I'm going to talk about the sound that evolved from a record like this and how a huge recent pop smash influenced this song whether directly or indirectly. here's the link to this week's song just in case you wanted to listen to it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ykup4vetvmwPlease do check out my recent interview I did with a really cool publication called Honk Magazine, here you'll be able to really get to know me as a creative individual but you'll also get a good glimpse into my past and where I come from and how I got to where I am today. here's the link to it just in case you wanted to read it: https://honkmagazine.com/sam-l-williams-talks-about-his-career-path-influence-and-new-music/You Can also follow me and reach out to me on Instagram right here:https://www.instagram.com/iheartoldies/Please do also check out my current singles and Pre save my upcoming EP which is coming out at the end of this month on the 28th, I would really appreciate it if you could do that as my music showcases a different part of myself which is often not showcased on my podcast, but it also tied into my podcast as well because all of my songs are influenced by the music I talk about on my podcast. but this part of myself showcases a more personal side to me that is related to the songs I write. here's the link to where you can check out my previous singles plus pre save my next album if you have Spotify, and if you pre save it, it will also be delivered straight to your music library as well: https://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/samlwilliams/turquoise-apricot--she-said-nohttps://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/samlwilliams/keep-her-in-my-back-pockethttps://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/samlwilliams/turquoise-apricothere's another place where you can check out more of my original music:https://www.samwilliamsmusic.netPlease do also check out the official Spotify and Youtube playlists for my podcast, there you'll be able to find all of the songs I have talked about on my show so far including some of the ones that I have mentioned in interview episodes of my podcast. if you found some cool songs on there that you haven't heard before and want to suggest me some new songs to my podcast that I haven't done yet, please email those ideas to me at samltwilli@icloud.com or you can also reach out to me on Instagram @iheartoldies: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/21f3uBS6kU4hUF6QAC5JMj?si=b677c0b5d99c406ehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CS1sYR7xky8&list=PL66sgq_GAmRcXy8yKZJfVmAD14HUYj7NfPlease do also check out the Official Redbubble Merch store for this podcast. there you'll be able to find these super cool merch items that have my own logo specifically for this podcast. it's the catchphrase I say at the end of my podcast in Keep On Trucking Tie Dye Font with the name of my podcast on the bottom, and if you like this logo and decide you would like to purchase something from this store, please email me at samltwilli@icloud.com or you can also reach out to me on Instagram @iheartoldies: https://www.redbubble.com/people/60ssam95/works/36806158-keep-things-groovy?asc=uIf you liked my analysis on this week's song and you have never heard it before and you thought the song was really cool and awesome, and you would like to find out more about this artist and song and your around my age (aka your a Millennial) please email me at samltwilli@icloud.com or you can also reach out to me on Instagram @iheartoldies.

This week's episode is on one of my all time FAVORITE 60's sort of deep tracks, this song did not get very high up charts nor did it stay on the charts for very long, but it's probably one of the best tracks from the 60's where you can clearly see how much a huge 60's band influenced another group that was having a few hits at that time. and as per usual, I dive into what makes this song so great both musically and lyrically, a change up from last week because last week I did my first song from the 60's I don't like, so now I'm reeling it back in and doing another song from the 60's that I love, and here's the link to it just in case you wanted to listen to it. next week I'll go over the history behind this group and whether or not they were a real group or not:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cvJbdr63owgHere's where you can find me on Instagram, please follow me and get in touch with me here:https://www.instagram.com/iheartoldies/please do also check out my latest interview I did with this really cool publication.

I also talk about how the band went through an evolution from being a strictly instrumental rock band to doing vocal songs and the behind the scenes details on their number one hit that I talked about last week. here's the link to last week's song just in case you wanted to listen to it again. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iHzjfGF6MiUYou can also follow me on Instagram right here:https://www.instagram.com/iheartoldies/You can also check out more of my original music right here:https://www.samwilliamsmusic.netPlease do check out my singles that are out right now, they are vastly different both stylistically and lyrically, but they all have that retro 60's sound. please do let me know whatcha think of them by emailing me at samltwilli@icloud.com or you can also reach out to me on Instagram @iheartoldies, P.S.

Hey Guys! So I know it's been a while since I have last uploaded an episode of my podcast, and it's because I unintentionally took a break from doing this podcast, primarily because I was torn as to what I should do about my hosting service situation. you see, I was going to move my podcast entirely to Anchor, but then I realized that I would loose all of my information in regards to my analytics for my podcast, so all of the listeners I have built up since starting this podcast originally would be lost and I would have to start from zero all over again. So with that being said, I decided to stay with the one I was with, and I was able to upgrade to one of their paid plans so I won't get kicked out of their system and risk my account getting terminated. So as of this week, I am back on my podcast and will continue to put out episodes without any real disruptions from this moment on. I apologize if you guys were expecting another episode from me the week after the last one I put out and you guys didn't hear from me, well, that's pretty much why. But anyways, I'm back! and this week, I'm doing something kind of special/unique with my podcast that I haven't done before. I'm covering an song from the 60's that I don't really like at all, and in this episode, I talk about why I'm not such a huge fan of it and why you may agree with me or disagree with me on my take of this song. I'm doing this to primarily show you guys that there was both good and bad music that was huge in the 60's, as with every decade of music really. Now you may totally disagree with me and you might actually like this song, and that's ok, but definitely let me know if you feel the same way I do about this song or not, and just in case you don't know what song I"m talking about, here's the link to it just in case you wanted to listen to it:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iHzjfGF6MiUYou can also follow me on Instagram right here:https://www.instagram.com/iheartoldies/Also, MAJOR update for you guys since I have been gone for 3 weeks now, I have a new single out! Yes. You can Now stream Keep Her In My Back Pocket on all of the music streaming platforms. Would love it if you guys could listen to this one! it's not really like my other two singles, it's different both stylistically and lyrically too, but it still has a good mix of the retro 60's sound with a little bit of today's flavor. I produced this one and played all of the instruments on it, and if you like it, please let me know by emailing me at samltwilli@icloud.com or you can also reach out to me on Instagram @iheartoldies, and here's the link to where you can stream it:https://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/samlwilliams/keep-her-in-my-back-pocketAlso, Don't forget to also check out the last two singles I put out too. the entire EP will come out in May.

this week I am introducing a brand new segment of my podcast called Retake Episodes. the reason why these episodes are called "Retake" episodes is because they focus on a group or an artist I did on my podcast already quite some episodes back. but I'm simply doing another song by them that I haven't done on my podcast and I'm reintroducing them to you guys for those of you who are new to my podcast and weren't listening to it that far back into my show. this band was a group that I did way back within the 3rd episode of this podcast and I haven't talked about them since then. so here's me covering another one of their songs that you guys may not have heard before. and as per usual, I talk about what makes this song so great musically and lyrically and I also talk about how much this song pioneered a specific genre of music people would grow to become familiar with in the 80's. so here's the link to this week's song just in case you wanted to listen to it:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CwR86dj4xesYou can also follow me on Instagram right here:https://www.instagram.com/iheartoldies/You can also check out more of my original music right here:https://www.samwilliamsmusic.netPlease do also check out my two song single that's out now.

in keeping with the current trends of the pandemic and the fact that cases keep going down and people are going back to work, I'm gonna shorten the length of these next few podcasts to get you guys to tune in again as your lives are getting increasingly busy as businesses are opening back up and people don't have as much free time right now as they did in early January. so to accommodate to that, I'm keeping this week's and probably next week's episode too at under 45 minutes so that way you guys can listen and it won't take up that much time out of your busy day. so without further or do, this week's episode is on a one hit wonder so there is not that much to tell about the band's history as their career wasn't that long due to the limited amount of success they had as a band but they did have some interesting aspects to their career including one member of a band I"m 99.9% certain your familiar with that did the horn arrangement on this song. here's the link to last week's song just in case you wanted to listen to it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u72IKJC9y58You can also follow me on Instagram right here:https://www.instagram.com/iheartoldies/You can also check out more of my original music right here:https://www.samwilliamsmusic.netPlease do also check out my two song single that is out now on all of the streaming platforms. here is the link to where you can find it on some of the streaming apps that it is currently on. would love to know whatcha think of it, please email me your thoughts on it at samltwilli@icloud.com or you can also find me on Instagram @iheartoldies: https://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/samlwilliams/turquoise-apricot--she-said-noPlease do also check out the Official Spotify and Youtube playlists for my podcast. there you'll be able to find all of the songs I have talked about on my show so far including some of the ones that I have mentioned in interview episodes of my podcast. if listening to these playlist gives you any ideas for the kind of songs I should talk about next on my podcast that I haven't yet, please email those ideas to me at samltwilli@icloud.com or you can also reach out to me on Instagram @iheartoldies: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/21f3uBS6kU4hUF6QAC5JMj?si=kzm45Ij6S9Oony-wn_x4oAhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CS1sYR7xky8&list=PL66sgq_GAmRcXy8yKZJfVmAD14HUYj7NfPlease do also check out the Official Redbubble Merch Page for this podcast. there you'll be able to find all of the official Merch for this podcast and this super cool logo that is specific to this podcast, and it consists of the catch phrase I say at the end of every episode in Keep On Trucking Tie Dye Font with the name of my podcast on the bottom. if you liked the merch and thought it was cool and would like to let me know your thoughts on the logo and the prices of each item in the store, please email me at samltwilli@icloud.com or you can hit me up on Instagram @iheartoldies:https://www.redbubble.com/people/60ssam95/works/36806158-keep-things-groovy?asc=u&ref=recent-ownerif you liked my analysis on this week's song and you thought it was cool and you have never heard this song before and you never knew anything about it until you heard my podcast episode on it and your around my age, please email me at samltwilli@icloud.com
If you missed last week's episode for some weird reason. today to hopefully bring you guys back to those who aren't actively listening to my podcast at this moment in time when your lives might be getting busier because people are back to work with cases going down,I bring to you a VERY Special Episode of my podcast. I sometimes do interview episodes of my show where I talk to an original member of either a 60's band or someone who was a studio musician, songwriter, engineer, someone who was there and someone who may not be a well known household name, but someone who was arguably one of the most important movers and shakers in the record business back in the 60's, and I have them on so they can tell the stories behind their hit songs and they can unveil to you some little known facts about their music to you and they can share their story which will live on the internet forever with this podcast long after they die. and last weekend, I had THE EXTREME HONOR to talk to an original member of arguably one of THEE GREATEST 60's bands that ever graced AM radio at that time, and one that was absolutely JUST AS GOOD, if not better then The Beatles. I was LITERALLY on cloud nine getting to talk to him, and he had such a great time talking to me and he was gracious enough to share with me the story behind his band, and BOY DID I LEARN SO MUCH about his band from listening to him talk. And if your a Millennial tuning into this and don't know anything about the band this guy was in, they were called the Lovin Spoonful and they were FANTASTIC as a group and they burst on to the Pop Music Scene when it felt like Popular Music was reaching it's zenith with Folk Rock becoming huge and Motown on top of their game and the NY producers & engineers trying to copy that sound, and of course , the British Invasion was in full swing at that time as well, and they had SUCH A GREAT SOUND that was the perfect blend of Folk, Blues & Pop Rock.You might know some of their songs such as "Do You Believe In Magic" or "Summer In The City", well if you do, your in for a real treat because I'm gonna talk to an original member of the band that did all of those songs and he also played keys & bass on all of them and co wrote some of their hits as well such as "You Didn't Have To Be So Nice" and "Summer In The City" without further or do I present to you the 11th interview episode of my podcast, the one and only Mr Steve Boone. if you are lost in this episode and don't know any of the songs we are talking about, I will put in them into the two playlists I have for this podcast and here are the links to them so you can listen to these songs and go back and listen to this interview so you can fully comprehend what we are talking about in this interview episode of this podcast:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JnbfuAcCqpYhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BIM579H-f7Yhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dfqwx7pMsqshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lt5Jy983uTEhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BRTkqGSKTtshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=txTEhgReZUAhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U7ofnHmxE-Ihttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jqi7Fv6VFjwhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nq4J9KyJb4shttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ZqgFyj5uTohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G9gKcb2DSb8https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JVz5Uc8dyfchttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pAur4CWJIPwYou can also follow me on Instagram right here:https://www.instagram.com/iheartoldies/You can also check out more of my original music right here:https://www.samwilliamsmusic.netPlease do also check out my two song single out now, it's under my new stage name Sam L Williams and the songs are called Turquoise Apricot and She Said No. Here's the link to where you can stream the two songs on some of the streaming platforms it's on currently. please let me know what do you think of these songs after you have listened to them. you can email me what do you think of them at samltwilli@icloud.com or you can also follow me on Instagram @iheartoldies:https://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/samlwilliams/turquoise-apricot--she-said-noPlease do also check out the official Spotify and Youtube Playlists for this podcast, there you'll be able to find all of the songs I have talked about in previous podcast episodes of this show including some of the ones I have talked about in interview episodes of my podcast including this one. if you liked these songs after listening to these playlists and if it gives you some ideas for the kind of songs I should talk about next on my podcast that I haven't yet, please email those ideas to me at samltwilli@icloud.com or you can also reach out to me on Instagram @iheartoldies:https://open.spotify.com/playlist/21f3uBS6kU4hUF6QAC5JMj?si=Ej6X4EZCRGGRsasYDswUZghttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CS1sYR7xky8&list=PL66sgq_GAmRcXy8yKZJfVmAD14HUYj7NfPlease do also check out the official Redbubble Merch store for this podcast. there you'll be able to find my own custom merch for this podcast with my own logo that is specific to my podcast with the catchphrase I say at the end of every episode of my podcast with the name of my podcast on the bottom all in really cool "Keep On Trucking" Tie Dye Font. if you liked this logo and would like to purchase something from this store or if you have some basic feedback for this logo and the prices of each item for this store, please email me at samltwilli@icloud.com or reach out to me on Instagram @iheartoldies: https://www.redbubble.com/people/60ssam95/works/36806158-keep-things-groovy?asc=u&ref=recent-ownerIf you REALLY enjoyed this interview episode of this podcast and your a millennial and you didn't know ANYTHING about this band and you found out some REALLY cool and interesting pieces of info about this band that you didn't already know and your around my age, please email me at samltwilli@icloud.com or you can also reach out to me on Instagram @iheartoldies.
This week's podcast is ALL about Phil Spector and his long and extensive history. today I talk about how he developed his "Wall Of Sound" and the Musicians he used on his sessions and his methods to his madness for his productions and exactly what musicians he used on his sessions and how much he experimented with Overdubbing before it was "cool" and industry standard, and also, I talk about how he had a tendency to cheat people out of credits and why he was such a two face and how he did this. This is also the VERY first "Three Part" episode of my podcast. normally it's just two parts but for the sake of time this week I spread it into three parts. so that way I could spend an equal amount of time on both She & Him & Phil Spector and his "Wall Of Sound", here's the link to that Phil Spector song just in case you forgot about it but don't remember it:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lf_fxswodiQYou can also follow me on Instagram right here:https://www.instagram.com/iheartoldies/You can also check out more of my original music right here:https://www.samwilliamsmusic.netPlease do also check out my official Two song single "Turquoise Apricot" and "She Said No" under my new stage name Sam L Williams. here's the link to where you can find it on some of the streaming platforms it is on currently, please let me know whatcha think of it either by emailing me at samltwilli@icloud.com or you can also reach out to me on Instagram :@iheartoldies.https://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/details/?id=7552EC53-8721-4513-B9FAF0ACB4925946Please do also check out the official Spotify and Youtube playlists for this podcast, there you'll be able to find all of the songs I have talked about on my show so far including some of the ones that I have mentioned in Interview episodes of my podcast. if you listened to this playlists and they give you some ideas for some songs I should talk about next on my podcast that I haven't yet, please email those ideas to me at samltwilli@icloud.com: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/21f3uBS6kU4hUF6QAC5JMj?si=MoQWwUMxSJeYMmAg867hTwhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CS1sYR7xky8&list=PL66sgq_GAmRcXy8yKZJfVmAD14HUYj7NfPlease do also check out the Official Redbubble Merch store for this podcast, there you'll be able to find the official Millennial Throwback Machine Merch page for this podcast, with my very own custom logo for this podcast. if you like this logo and would like to purchase anything from this store, please email me at samltwilli@icloud.com or you can also reach out to me on Instagram @iheartoldies, but please do let me know whatcha think of the logo itself plus the prices for each item in the store as well: https://www.redbubble.com/people/60ssam95/works/36806158-keep-things-groovy?asc=u&ref=recent-ownerif You found some VERY cool little known facts about the song from a few week's artist and song and you didn't know anything about them or Phil Spector in general, please email me at samltwilli@icloud.com. please keep in mind next week's episode is an interview episode of my podcast where I'll be talking to Steve Boone, original member of the Lovin Spoonful over the phone. so please go back and listen to the episodes I did on them which I did 3 years ago when I first started this podcast, and listen to some of their hit songs such as "Summer In the City", "Daydream", "You Didn't Have To Be So Nice", "Do You Believe In Magic", "Did You Ever Have To Make Up Your Mind", to prepare for next week's episode of the podcast. I'm very excited to do that and I'll see you guys next week for that.
hey guys, sorry if this episode is coming at ya a little bit late, was trying to figure out how to follow up the episode I did a few weeks ago on both She & Him & Phil Spector, and the original plan was the do both a history lesson on both of those musical people and combine them into one episode, but then I realized that that might be a little too much for this podcast, and I didn't want to try to cram everything into one episode and have to cut down what i want to talk about in regards to Phil Spector with you guys, and also I don't want to loose you if the episode is just too long for you to consume, so the initial plan now is that I"m going to do a three part episode. This part is essentially about the history behind She & Him and forgive me if there are some holes within their history and if I'm looking stuff up about them, I don't know that much about them other then what's readily available online in regards to their history, I mean in a perfect world, I would interview Zooey and ask her a bunch of questions about her musical history with her duet Partner Matt, but she is unfortunately too much of a high level celebrity for me to get too so It doesn't look like it's possible for me to get too that easily. And Plus, she's mainly known as an actress, so she hasn't been interviewed or talked too much about her musical side to herself, so I'm only pretty much going off of what I have read in regards to the interviews that were conducted by her musical partner Matthew Ward, but I hope this episode enlightens you with a different side to Zooey that you might not know about, and next week will be a deep dive into the history of Phil Spector & the Crystals and that whole thing. here's the link to last week's song just in case you wanted to listen to it:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MdJbqGeYM6Ehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lf_fxswodiQYou can also follow me on Instagram right here:https://www.instagram.com/iheartoldies/You can also check out more of my original music right here:https://www.samwilliamsmusic.netPlease do also listen to my two song single as well, I worked very hard on these two songs and you will see a different side to myself which includes me as a musician as well as a songwriter. please go check them out, here's the link to where you can listen on Spotify, Apple Music, iTunes, Amazon, and Deezer: https://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/details/?id=7552EC53-8721-4513-B9FAF0ACB4925946Please do also check out the Official Spotify and Youtube playlists for this Podcast. there you'll be able to find all of the songs I have talked about on my podcast including some of the ones I have mentioned in interview episodes, if you found some really cool songs on this playlists and have some suggestions for some songs I should talk about next on my podcast that I haven't yet, please send those to me a samltwilli@icloud.com or you can reach out to me on Instagram @iheartoldies:https://open.spotify.com/playlist/21f3uBS6kU4hUF6QAC5JMj?si=MA7S-RLWTmKejILv7MA3oghttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CS1sYR7xky8&list=PL66sgq_GAmRcXy8yKZJfVmAD14HUYj7NfPlease do also check out the Official Redbubble Merch store for this podcast and there you'll be able to find all of these really cool Merch items that have my own personal logo attached for this podcast, and if you like the logo and would like to purchase something from this store, please email me at samltwilli@icloud.com or reach out to me On Instagram @iheartoldies: https://www.redbubble.com/people/60ssam95/works/36806158-keep-things-groovy?asc=u&ref=recent-ownerIf you found out some really cool and interesting facts about She & Him & Zooey Deschanel and you never knew this side to Zooey and only know her actress side to herself and your a millennial and your around my age, please email me at samltwilli@icloud.com or you can also reach out to me on Instagram @iheartoldies.
My apologies if this episode is coming atcha a little late. was having a hard time earlier this week, was kind of in a funk and not feeling the greatest and was busy with a few things earlier this week such as filming a practice video for my pitch video for my upcoming Grammy Museum exhibit, as well as trying to figure out how to film some promotional video content for my two song single that is out now that you can stream on all of the usual music streaming platforms, I also was doing some Focus group work this week too so all of those things have somewhat delayed this week's podcast by a few days, but I"m still here and this week I'm doing something REALLY special. I"m actually doing a two song analyzation/breakdown and both of these songs mark the surrounding dates of Phil Spector's untimely passing last weekend and also , Zooey Deschanel's birthday which just passed on the same day as Phil Spector's death. since Phil Spector immensely influenced Zooey Deschanel's music, we are going to do a breakdown/analyzation of both a song she recorded with She & Him and a Phil Spector production of the early 60's and how much Phil influenced Zooey's songwriting. as promised, I said I would do the updated version of the 60's girl group pop sound but I"m also comparing it to the real thing this week as well. here are the link's to this week's songs just in case you wanted to listen to them:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MdJbqGeYM6Ehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lf_fxswodiQYou can also follow me on Instagram right here:https://www.instagram.com/iheartoldies/You can also check out more of my original music right here:https://www.samwilliamsmusic.netPlease do also check out My First Official Music release in 4 years through this link. you can find it on Apple Music, Spotify, Amazon, iTunes, and Deezer right here. if you like these two songs of mine and you have never heard them before, please let me know whatcha think of them and email me at samltwilli@icloud.com or you can also reach out to me on Instagram @iheartoldies:https://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/samlwilliams/turquoise-apricot--she-said-noPlease do also check out the official Spotify and Youtube playlists for this podcast. there you'll be able to find all of the songs I have talked about on my podcast so far including the ones that I have mentioned in interview episodes. if you like any of these songs and if listening to these playlists gives you any ideas for the kind of songs I should talk about on my show next in the future that I haven't talked about yet on my show so far, please email those ideas to me at samltwilli@icloud.com: https://open.spotify.com/user/1283678791/playlist/21f3uBS6kU4hUF6QAC5JMj?si=KdZU36zPT9SvuEkIfKKUKAhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CS1sYR7xky8&list=PL66sgq_GAmRcXy8yKZJfVmAD14HUYj7NfYou can also check out the official Redbubble Merch store for this podcast. there you'll be able to find all of these really cool merch items that have my own personal Podcast logo attached to it that you can purchase online at this link, if you like these merch items and you thought they were cool or you like this logo and you thought it was interesting and you have never seen anything like it before, please email me at samltwilli@icloud.com or you can also reach out to me on Instagram @iheartoldies. https://www.redbubble.com/people/60ssam95/works/36806158-keep-things-groovy?asc=u&ref=recent-ownerif you liked my analysis on this week's song and you have NEVER heard Zooey Deschanel''s music and your a HUGE fan of her acting things she has done in the past but have never heard her music before and your a millennial and you love her music, and your totally amazed at how much the 60's influenced her songwriting, please email me at samltwilli@cloud.com or you can also reach out to me on instagram @iheartoldies.
This week's episode is PRETTY FREAKING LONG so I commend you for listening to the whole thing. I mean I know it's almost two hours long but I figured if you guys find the info in this episode interesting, you will listen to the whole thing, but I really do appreciate you if your able to get through this entire podcast episode. and it's worth listening to the whole thing, because I talk about SO MUCH things in this podcast and you'll learn so much about the New York Recording scene in the 60's from listening to this podcast as I had a lot to unpack about this scene since I haven't done much of a deep dive with it really. so you'll learn a lot about it from listening to this episode. trust me. you will. You'll also learn about the Girl Group Pop genre and how it might have influenced one of the greatest bands of all time.

Happy New Year Guys! I'm back this week to talk about a genre of music that I have been waiting for a VERY long time to do, but I just haven't gotten around to doing it yet. In fact, I"m gonna be dedicating the next four weeks to this genre of music but I think it's time I do some Girl 60's songs since I honestly haven't done any, up until now.

this week's episode will be the last of 2020 for this podcast. if you made it to this point congrats. I know this was a tough year for a lot of people but I hope my podcast was nothing but an incredibly great escape from the tumultuous and frighting and difficult year which was 2020. I think 2021 will be a much better year for a whole lot of people and as far as this podcast is concerned, it's really onward and upward for me but next year I'll do my best to bring you guys more exciting and great guests related to 60's music and I hope you guys will enjoy the new and upcoming things related to my podcast such as my new original music coming out on the first official week of 2021 and my really cool 60's music virtual exhibit at the Grammy Museum that will more then likely also happen next year as well. More Greener pastures are coming for me in 2021, but don't worry. I'm ok still going to be committed to doing this podcast because you guys continue to listen to it every week and for that, I thank you. if it wasn't for you this podcast probably wouldn't have lasted past episode one or two for me. but anyways, this week I"m going to be doing a deep dive on the Seekers History and talk about the group and why they didn't have as much massive commercial success as other British Invasion groups did and what made them so unique and the cool connections this group had with other artists and bands you'll definitely be familiar with. here's the link to last week's song just in case you wanted to listen to it:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QISuv4qoJYMYou can also reach out to me on Instagram right here:https://www.instagram.com/iheartoldies/here’s the official Spotify pre-save link for my upcoming two song single coming out on Jan 8th.

This week's episode I believe will be the second to last one before the end of 2020, so I hope this one finds you guys well. as per usual with this podcast, i go down a COMPLETE 180 turn from last week's artist and song I did last week and talk about a COMPLETELY Different band/artist from last week, and into a COMPLETELY different genre as well. This week I do a half female/half guy group (my first one in a while) but they were GREAT! and they specialized in a VERY specific genre of music that is still very prevalent today. and boy, do they sound GREAT! I love their music and I hope you guys too, but if you've never heard of this band before and your around my age and your wondering "why should I care"? well, next week, I'll talk about the history behind them and I will show you that they have some solid connections to bands & artists you DEFINITELY will be familiar with. here's the link to last week's song just in case you wanted to listen to it:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QISuv4qoJYMYou can also follow me on Instagram right here:https://www.instagram.com/iheartoldies/You can also check out more of my original music right here:https://www.samwilliamsmusic.nethere is the official Spotify pre-save link for my upcoming two song single coming out this Friday.

After taking a week off from my podcast to celebrate my 25th bday, and for celebrating almost 120 of this podcast (even though this isn't exactly Episode 120, it's technically episode 118. but regardless of the number of episodes i have put out so far, I decided to do another interview episode since we are close to 120 episodes of this podcast I put out. but this interview episode is ABSOLUTELY LIKE NO OTHER interview episode I have done in the past. Instead of me interviewing a 60's music industry veteran, I"m actually being the one interviewed! Yes! I decided that it was time I have someone on my podcast who was around my age and have them pick my brain about general 60's music history and have me talk about what the music business was like back then and how different recording technology was like back then vs today. so with this podcast episode, I'm accomplishing what I set out to do since day one of my podcast which is educate a younger generation about 60's music history since she is a millennial, but she's also a musician so she already brings another layer of intellectualism on to my podcast. So in this podcast you'll witness her learn a lot about this INCREDIBLE decade of music from me. and she also is very passionate about this music and does a lot to bring a sense of modern perspective on this music as well. which is REALLY important because I myself tend to get stuck inside of trivial information about 60's music and I sometimes loose an awareness of the music that's going on now.

This week I'll be tackling my first ever male female duet of the 60's (one that you probably won't be familiar with ESPECIALLY if your a Millennial) but one can argue that even if your a baby boomer and you grew up with this kind of music, this one might have slipped through the cracks for you because this particular duo is relatively obscure because they only had 3 charting singles and none of them made the Top 10 on the Billboard Hot 100 (they were essentially lower charting singles, but still very popular at the time of their initial releases). but the group's initial chart positions for their only three charting singles doesn't undermine how good they were and today, I'm going to talk about exactly how awesome this song is and what makes it so good musically and lyrically, and why this is a song you'll definitely be able to relate to even if your a Millennial and you've never heard this song before. here's the link to this week's song just in case you've never heard it before: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ChK1j6ABRdoYou can also follow me on Instagram right here:https://www.instagram.com/iheartoldies/You can also check out more of my original music right here:https://www.samwilliamsmusic.netPlease do also check out the official Spotify and Youtube playlists for my podcast. there you'll be able to find all of the songs I talk about on my podcast plus the ones i have mentioned in Interview episodes I have done on my podcast. listening to these playlists should give you a good idea for the kind of songs I talk about on my podcast, and if it does give you any ideas for the kind of songs I should cover next on my podcast, please email those ideas to me at samltwilli@icloud.com or you can reach out to me on Instagram @iheartoldies and also check out more of my original music at samwilliamsmusic.net: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/21f3uBS6kU4hUF6QAC5JMj?si=4tHmE1QbTVSDyziQlMPjSwhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CS1sYR7xky8&list=PL66sgq_GAmRcXy8yKZJfVmAD14HUYj7NfPlease do also check out the Official Redbubble Merch store for this podcast! there you'll be able to find all of these super cool merch items with a logo that pertains to this podcast. if you like the logo and you think it's cool and would like to purchase something from it, please email me at samltwilli@icloud.com or you can also reach out to me on Instagram @iheartoldies. also let me know any kind of feedback you might have for me on the logo and the prices of each item in the store as well!: https://www.redbubble.com/people/60ssam95/works/36806158-keep-things-groovy?asc=u&ref=recent-ownerif you liked my analysis on this week's song and you've never heard this song before and you can definitely relate to it and your around my age and your a Millennial, please email me at samltwilli@icloud.com or you can reach out to me on instagram @iheartoldies

This week's episode is going to be all about a Classic Blue Eyed Soul record from the 60's and one that was used in the recent Quinton Tarantino Movie Once Upon A Time In Hollywood and one that is pretty iconic! this song has a really cool and coy vibe about it and it's very sexy but not super complicated as far as it's chord progression is concerned but it's VERY sexually suggestive. I would NOT listen to this podcast if your someone that is under the age of 18 or if your a kid or a young teenager. next week's episode will be all about the history behind this song and artist and the city this song was recorded in plus the interesting thing about the time this song was out and on Top 40 radio. here's the link to last week's song just in case you wanted to listen to it:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ixQFjy6crAUYou Can also Follow Me on Instagram right here:https://www.instagram.com/iheartoldies/PLEASE do also check out my NEW and IMPROVED website which has ALL of the episodes of my podcast you can stream on there PLUS a bunch of OTHER really cool stuff! would love it if you could check it out and lmk whatcha think of my new website! you can email me at samltwilli@icloud.com or reach out to me on Instagram @iheartoldies:https://www.samwilliamsmusic.netPlease do ALSO check out the official Spotify and Youtube Playlists for my podcast. there you'll be able to find ALL Of the songs I talk about on my podcast INCLUDING some ons I have mentioned in interview episodes I have done in the past.

I'm sorry if this week's episode is coming atcha a little bit late, the quarantine has lately made me feel very distracted and it's been harder for me to get stuff done (I recently got back into watching Classic TV shows from the 60's, and I also have been playing video games again, all of this is due to the lack of social in human interaction I've been experiencing lately, but I know I'm not the only one who's been like that lately). but my schedule has definitely been all over the place lately, but don't worry, I will continue to put out these podcast episodes whenever I can and I promise I won't leave you hanging. this week is all about Motown and in this podcast I offer some very insightful facts about the label and their history and I also talk about the history behind last week's song and artist. this week's episode is also incredibly long, and again, I"m sorry if this episode was too long for you, but the history behind Motown and exactly how in depth they were is quit astonishing and I tried to cover as many aspects of it as I could. here's the link to last week's song just in case you wanted to listen to it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VZFvlum63TkYou can also follow me on Instagram right here:https://www.instagram.com/iheartoldies/Please do also check out the official Spotify and Youtube playlists for this podcast, there you'll be able to find all of the songs I have talked about on my podcast so far including some of the ones I have mentioned in interview episodes, and if this gives you any ideas for what kind of songs I should talk about next on my podcast that I haven't yet, you can email those ideas to me at samltwilli@icloud.com or you can also email those ideas to me at samltwilli@icloud.com: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/21f3uBS6kU4hUF6QAC5JMj?si=gEkSOm2-Ti-Wy-dSE7APbghttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CS1sYR7xky8&list=PL66sgq_GAmRcXy8yKZJfVmAD14HUYj7NfPlease do also check out the official Redbubble Merch store for this podcast, there you'll be able to find this super cool logo that I personally didn't design but I came up with the idea for the design for myself, and if you like it, I would love it if you could purchase something from the store! if you do decide to do that, please email me at samltwilli@icloud.com or you can reach out to me on Instagram @iheartoldies, and if you don't want to purchase something, I would love it if you could please let me know what you think of the logo itself plus the prices of each item in the store and you can reach out to me on the same IG handle and or email address: https://www.redbubble.com/people/60ssam95/works/36806158-keep-things-groovy?asc=u&ref=recent-ownerIf you found out some really cool and interesting facts about this week's podcast episode and you never knew anything about Motown or the group that recorded the song or the guy who wrote and produced the song, you can email me at samltwilli@icloud.com or you can also reach out to me on Instagram @iheartoldies.
I decided to keep the the Black Lives Matter theme going for my podcast this week, and throughout he 2 years I've been doing this show, I have covered many facets of Black R&B Music in the 60's, from cities such as Chicago and Philadelphia and Memphis, but slightly on purpose, I have avoided talking about or doing an episode on Motown, until now. And the main reason why I have avoided talking about the label on my podcast is because the history of Motown is pretty much already covered in current Rock and Roll Music history podcasts I'm in direct competition in, but at the same time, I have realized it would be difficult to honor the black songwriters and producers of the 60's without making a single mention of them. But, I feel like there are many great songs that came out of this label that hardly anybody in my age group knows about, so today's episode is on a Motown song but one you wouldn't really expect (it's a song you probably don't know but you'll DEFINITELY know who wrote the song and produced it). So next week I'll go pretty in depth with their history but also offering some little known tidbits about them most people probably don't know. here's the link to this week's song just in case you wanted to listen to it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XT_1mBc_GjwYou Can also follow me On Instagram right here:https://www.instagram.com/iheartoldies/Please do also check out the official Spotify and Youtube playlists for this podcast, there you'll be able to find all of the songs I talk about on my podcast (including some of the ones I mention in interview episodes of my show) if checking out these playlists gives you any ideas for what kind of songs I should talk about on my podcast next, you can email me at samltwilli@icloud.com or you can reach out to me on Instagram @iheartoldies: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/21f3uBS6kU4hUF6QAC5JMj?si=-rGKsTtcRFeb8GAnsl2CKwhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CS1sYR7xky8&list=PL66sgq_GAmRcXy8yKZJfVmAD14HUYj7NfPlease do check out the official Redbubble Merch Store for this podcast. there you'll be able to find this super cool logo that's attached to a bunch of different merch items. you can check those out and I would appreciate it if you could please purchase something from the store and if you do, please let me know at samltwilli@icloud.com or you can reach out to me on Instagram @iheartoldies and let me know which item you got and what about the show do you like and also, if you can't buy anything for whatever reason, please let me know what you think of the logo itself and the prices of each item in the store at the same email address or on my Instagram:https://www.redbubble.com/people/60ssam95/works/36806158-keep-things-groovy?asc=u&ref=recent-ownerIf you liked my analysis on this week's song and you've never heard it before and are anxious to hear more about the artist and the song, and the guy that wrote it and produced it, you can email me at samltwilli@icloud.com

In honor of the Black Lives Matter movement going on right now, I'm going to highlight some of my favorite 60's songs/artists written and or recorded by Black Artists.And this one is one of the greatest black power songs from the 60's and it comes from one of the most influential predominately black labels from the 60's (and no, it's not Motown). and this week I'm going to be breaking down one of the label's biggest hit songs by one of their most successful artists, and next week, I'll do a deep dive into the history behind the label and the musicians that played on their songs and just how influential and revolutionary they were. here's the link to last week's song just in case you wanted to listen to it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S_OX2HwWy-oYou Can Also Follow Me On Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/iheartoldies/Please do also check out the official Spotify and Youtube playlists for my podcast. there you'll be able to find all of the songs I talk about on my show so far plus songs I Have mentioned in interviews I have done on my show. if checking out these playlists gives you any ideas for songs I should cover next on my podcast that I haven't yet, please email those ideas to me at samltwilli@icloud.comhttps://open.spotify.com/playlist/21f3uBS6kU4hUF6QAC5JMj?si=pfAl5xqnT0KjXzweeknvHQhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CS1sYR7xky8&list=PL66sgq_GAmRcXy8yKZJfVmAD14HUYj7NfPlease do also check out the official Redbubble Merch Store for this podcast where you'll be able to buy Merch items with my logo attached to it (that I had the idea for and somebody else designed), if you decide not to purchase anything I would love it if you could give me some feedback on the logo itself plus the prices of each item in the store, and you can do that by emailing me at samltwilli@icloud.com or you can also reach out to me on Instagram @iheartoldies: https://www.redbubble.com/people/60ssam95/works/36806158-keep-things-groovy?asc=u&ref=recent-ownerIf you liked my analysis on this week's song and you thought it was interesting and cool and you've never heard this song before or if you have heard this song before and you've never thought about it in this way, please email me at samltwilli@icloud.com or reach out to me on Instagram @iheartoldies.

Hey Guys! Sorry if I haven't put out an episode in a while, next week will be episode 100 of this podcast, but I just wanted to give you a little teaser episode before that happens. please be sure to send me any questions you might have for Mike Vale (bass player for Tommy James & The Shondells) at samltwilli@icloud.com or you can DM them to me on instagram @iheartoldies. Please note that my website will be going down this week as I am working on rebuilding it using a different builder and I will let you guys know when my website is back up in it's new form (and I'll post a link to that in the description of further podcast episodes), Also, please do give Tommy James & The Shondell's Music a listen before next week's episode (so that way you'll get all of the references to their songs and you'll know what we are talking about). some of their big hits include I Think Were Alone Now, Mony Mony, Crimson and Clover and Crystal Blue Persuasion (I will post links to their music in next week's interview episode).
If you were expecting an episode from me last week, I apologize I didn't put one out because I was very busy working out and exercising (the whether in my area has been really good lately to go outside and exercise).and I also went on a vacation last weekend, and I will add into this description of this episode is that this episode wasn't recorded in my usual spot where I record my podcast episodes.

in light of all of us being quarantine right now, I decided to shift the day in which I put out these podcast episodes, because I figured Sundays would be the day that most people would have the time to listen to podcasts, but since this crisis has made a lot of us a lot less busy then we were before this whole thing began, I figured why not put the episodes of my podcast out on a different day besides Sundays, so I'll be mixing up the days I'll be releasing these episodes until were out of this quarantine (then I'll go back to putting these out on Sundays), but anyways, this week's episode focuses on the history behind last week's song and artist and there is some overlap between this week's episodes and some past episodes (specifically about the Byrds and the Beau Brummells) to get a better understanding of the history behind this band, please go back and listen to those episodes, then the history behind this week's song and artist will make a lot more sense to you, but some historical things are being repeated with this week's episode from some previous episodes, but anyways, here's the link to last week's song just in case you wanted to listen to it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c7YSANg8vgwYou Can Also Follow Me On Instagram right here:https://www.instagram.com/iheartoldies/You Can Also Check Out More Of My Original Music Right here, I'm currently in the process of rebuilding my website and I will reupload the new website link once it is done:http://www.samwilliamsmusic.netPlease do also check out the official Spotify and Youtube Playlists for my podcast, there you'll be able to find all of the songs I have talked about on my show so far including some ones that I have mentioned in the interview episodes I have conducted on this show, and for those of you new to this podcast, these playlists should give you a good idea as to the kind of music I talk about on my show just in case you have no idea what kind of music I talk about on my show, and hopefully this will give you some ideas as to the songs I should cover next on my podcast that I haven't yet, and if that does, you can email those ideas to me at samltwilli@icloud.com or you can reach out to me on Instagram @iheartoldies: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/21f3uBS6kU4hUF6QAC5JMj?si=sfYZbgkxQGyxasgb3lv16whttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CS1sYR7xky8&list=PL66sgq_GAmRcXy8yKZJfVmAD14HUYj7NfPlease do also check out the Official Redbubble Merch Store for this podcast, there you'll be able to find this super cool logo that I didn't design but I had somebody else design, but i came up with the idea for. it's the catchphrase I say at the end of episode in Keep On Trucking Tie Dye Font with the name of my podcast at the bottom, and I would love it if you could show your support to this podcast and purchase something from it, but if not, I would love to hear from you as your thoughts on the logo and the prices of each item in the store, and you can do that by emailing me at samltwillI@icloud.com, or you can also reach out to me on Instagram @iheartoldies: https://www.redbubble.com/i/t-shirt/Keep-Things-Groovy-by-60sSam95/36806158.RY32L?asc=u&rel=carouselIf you found out some really cool and interesting facts about last week's song and you didn't really know anything about last week's artist and your around my age, you can email me at samltwilli@icloud.com or you can reach out to me on Instagram @iheartoldies.

this week's episode to switch things up from doing the super obscure one hit wonders, I'm going to do something different that I haven't done before for the first episode of my podcast in 2020. I'm going to do a song that was by a huge iconic 60's band (that wasn't the Beatles) that never made the Top 40 Nationally. this song originally bubbled under the Hot 100 on Billboard which basically makes it a non hit song but in this episode I'm going to talk to you about why I think this song should have been a much bigger hit and just how amazing this song is despite the fact that it was never a Top 40 hit nationally. Next week I'll get in depth the history behind this band and how they were formed and what not. here's the link to this week's song just in case you wanted to listen to it:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=to-RVV_3anwYou Can Also Follow Me On Instagram right here:https://www.instagram.com/iheartoldies/You Can Also Check Out More Of My Original Music Right Here:http://www.samwilliamsmusic.netWould love it if you could also check out the official Spotify and Youtube Playlists for this podcast. there you'll be able to find all of the songs I have covered on this podcast including songs that I have mentioned in some of the interviews that I have done on this show.

This week's episode is still in the R&B Vein as far as 60's music is concerned except that we are going to fast forward to the late 60's to focus on a completely different sub genre of R&B/Soul from the 60's that I haven't talked about on this show before. and in this week's episode, I break down arguably the first ever song written and produced in this sub genre. As per usual, I talk about my opinion on the song and what made it so good both musically and lyrically, and next week, I'll get into the history behind this specific group, then I'll also do a complete history on the city that this song was recorded in (from the early to late 60's).

Today's episode of my podcast is a interview Episode with somebody a little different then what I normally do for my podcast. the guy I'm interviewing today isn't necessarily a songwriter or producer from that era per say but he has worked with legendary songwriters and producers from the 60's and was in a duo with somebody that made music that even though it was recorded in the late 70's very much had that early to mid 60's sound as far as production and arrangement is concerned. He also is the current bandleader for a guy who is world renown for his cartoon voice over work, and on the side, he also has his own band where he does loads of 60's tunes in it. A lot of the songs I talk about in today's interview episode are songs I will talk about in future episodes of this podcast, so a lot of them won't be added to the official Spotify playlist for the podcast because I don't really want to add the same songs twice when I will be covering them again in future episodes of my show, but for now, just in case you had no idea what we were talking about in regarding the specific songs and artists we were talking about in this episode, here are the links to some of the songs we talked about in today'e episode:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TTIaRZYdGJohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TTIaRZYdGJohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nuw8GJbqx94https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=13Mtz-rDD2Ahttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LYPIVqtPoDwYou Can Also Follow Me On Instagram Right Here:https://www.instagram.com/iheartoldies/You Can Also Check Out More of My original Music right here:http://www.samwilliamsmusic.netPlease do follow Tom Kenny's Official Instagram account for his band as well to keep updated on his band as well:https://www.instagram.com/tomkennyandthehiseas/Please do also check out the official Spotify playlist for this podcast. you might not find a lot of the songs I talk about in today's interview episode on there because these will be songs I'll be covering in future episodes with just me so once I do that I'll add them on to the playlist because I don't see the point in adding the same songs onto the same playlist twice.

This week's episode will be a special feature on an artist that was used in a recent movie that takes place in the 60's that I saw last week that I thoroughly enjoyed. This week's episode will be both parts of my show all in one episode (my opinion and the history behind the track) because there is a chance the next special guest episode will happen next week. if it does you will get a notification on your phone letting you know whether or not next week's episode will be the special guest episode.. but anyways, this particular song and artist is extremely interesting, and in this episode, I talk about what makes them so interesting and what makes this song so good. I also do a special announcement for a live event that will be related to this podcast.

This week's episode of the podcast is all about the history behind last week's song and artist. this episode will cover a lot of ground as far as the city that this song was recorded in and the sound that came out of that city when Roy Orbison was having hits and the people/musicians and producers that were behind that sound, plus I talk about exactly what inspired the singer for this song to write this song and what were some more interesting things about him that made him unique and different and also, where he got started as an artist and how his career parallels the career of another extremely famous 60's male singer but I also compare the similarities and differences between both of them as well. here is the link to last week's song just in case you wanted to listen to it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tNdBLBleO90You can also follow me and reach out to me on Instagram right here:https://www.instagram.com/iheartoldies/You can also check out more of my original music right here:http://www.samwilliamsmusic.netPlease do also check out the official Spotify playlist for this podcast, there you will find all of the songs I have talked about on my shows so far including some that I have mentioned in my interviews that I have done so far, and if you decide to check this out, hopefully it will give you some helpful suggestions on which songs I should cover next on my podcast that I have not done yet, and if you do have any suggestions for me regarding that, please email me at samltwillIi@icloud.com:https://open.spotify.com/playlist/21f3uBS6kU4hUF6QAC5JMj?si=11YbRQInQ26mu2G4T9ODDgPlease do also check out the official Redbubble Merch Store for this podcast, and if you decide to purchase something from it please let me know by emailing me at samltwill@icloud.com or by instagram @iheartoldies or if not I'd love for you to share with me some feedback on the store including your thoughts on the logo and the prices on each item in there:https://www.redbubble.com/people/60ssam95/works/36806158-keep-things-groovy?asc=u&ref=recent-ownerIf you found some some cool information about Roy and you never really knew anything about him or you thought the story behind this week and last week's song was interesting, please email me at samltwilli@icloud.com or on instagram @iheartoldies and I will also let you guys know when the next special guest episode will happen, it will probably be this week or the week after...
This week's episode is all about one of my all time favorite 60's solo artists, and in this week's episode, I break down one of his best and most under appreciated songs. He is generally known for one big hit song but this week I talk about a song of his that more represents his overall very unique style of songwriting and his genre that was right in the middle in between country and pop and his very heavenly voice as well. In this episode, I also show people what makes the song so relatable and how the situation that is described in the lyrics of this song is something that can still happen today to somebody around my age. Next week's episode will be all about the history behind this song and artist. In this episode I also make a very special announcement on who will be my next special guest on my podcast. here's the link to this week's song just in case you wanted to listen to it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tNdBLBleO90You Can Also Follow Me and reach out to me On Instagram right here: https://www.instagram.com/iheartoldies/You Can Also Check Out More of my original Music right here:http://www.samwilliamsmusic.netAlso please do check out the official Spotify Playlist for this podcast curated by me, there you will find all of the songs I have talked about on my show so far plus the songs I have talked about with my previous guests on my show.

in This week's episode, I talk about the crazy story behind last week's song. now last week's song might have been a one hit wonder, but it definitely has a long and interesting story behind it. Everything from the events that might have inspired the song to who actually originally wrote it and the story behind the song's famous recording session and what happened after the song was originally recorded and released. I also mention how this song has been able to live a life of it's own when it was covered by a band about 3 decades after it was originally released and they turned the song into a hit all over again and by doing that, they introduced the song to a whole new generation of people who may have never heard the song when it originally came out in the 60's.

This Week's Podcast Episode instead of doing my usual song arrangement breakdown and history lesson, I"m gonna be talking to an original member of a legendary 60's Psychedelic Rock band, he was the co writer of Incense and Peppermints and he also played keyboards on the track, and his best friend and co writer of the song (who was also a member of Strawberry Alarm Clock) later went on to become an original member of a very well known classic Rock band from the 70's. the interview talks about the brutal realities of the music business and how he was dealt with a shitty hand in terms of getting paid for the number one hit he had with the band and in the interview, he talks about how the band was formed and also how they got their name and who was the DJ that helped make Incense and Peppermints a huge number one hit and he also talked about what inspired him to write the follow up hits to Incense and Peppermints and how and why the band doesn't tour to this day and how they are still able to play some local shows in the Los Angeles Area and his insights on songwriting and being in music in general. Now before you listen to this podcast episode, I would absolutely listen to this band's most well known songs so that way you have a good idea for what I talk about with in in this interview. here are the youtube links to their most well known songs and also, I have officially started my own online merch store for this podcast and in this description I will also post a link to this description of this week's episode. the logo that is attached to my podcast merchandise is the catchphrase I say at the end of every episode ("Keep Things Groovy") in Keep on Trucking Tie Dye Colored Font on a black background with the name of my podcast on the bottom. here are the links to the Strawberry Alarm Clock's songs please listen to them before you listen to this episode: Incense and Peppermints:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RghL1rViX34Tomorrow: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IJ9jyKbsL7ASitting With the Guru:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CfB70r9DrHEHere is there link to their Facebook page just in case you wanted to follow them on Social Media:https://www.facebook.com/thestrawberryalarmclock/and here's their official website link: https://strawberryalarmclock.comand as always you can also follow me on Instagram right here:https://www.instagram.com/iheartoldies/and here's where you can check out more of my original music:http://www.samwilliamsmusic.netand here is my online Merch store for this podcast, I would appreciate any feedback regarding my store including how does the logo look and how affordable are the merchandise items. if you decide to purchase something from this store, email me at samltwilli@icloud.com and let me know when you do that and send me a picture of your item once you get it in the mail and also in the email tell me how much you love my podcast and one really cool artist that you got turned on to from listening to it and one really cool piece of information that you learned from listening to this podcast. here is the official Redbubble Store link:https://www.redbubble.com/people/60ssam95/works/36806158-keep-things-groovy?asc=u&ref=recent-ownerIf you enjoyed this interview and you learned a lot of cool facts about the Strawberry Alarm Clock that you never knew about them and you got turned on to their music and you've never heard of them or heard their stuff before, please email me at samltwilli@icloud.com also, let me know if you would want me to do more interviews.
