Diggin' with Peter and Dre: Recent Episodes

Peter

Peter's got a problem: Too much music and not enough attention span. Dre's got a problem, too: Peter's taking her along with him.

Every episode Peter gets a random album from his collection, and Dre experiences it with him, good, bad, or amazing.

Peter and Dre listen to a seminal hard rock album from 1988 that asks all the important questions, like "Am I Evil?": Danzig's self-titled debut. We come to some possibly surprising conclusions about who the least important person on these recordings might be, and and ponder the comparisons for Glenn's voice.

Warren Zevon might never have gotten the universal acclaim that one of either Peter or Dre thinks he deserves (we'll leave it as an exercise for the listener to determine which of them it is), but he still produced a thoughtful, occasionally funny, sometimes macabre album in 'Excitable Boy' from 1978. How does it stand up, and what (and where) exactly was Lee Ho Fooks?

Be sure to keep your ear open for our sideline into racing games like 'Mario Kart' and 'F-Zero' because there's going to be a quiz after class, and you'll need to know where this drum-n-bass album fits into the whole equation.

Peter and Dre come to nearly the same consensus on Joe Strummer's 'Streetcore' as a whole, but for a completely different set of songs on it. Kinda like convergent evolution, but with less biology.

Peter and Dre find an album filled with songs that don't have a lot holding them together, except for the coincidence of having been released around the same time. We also discover that Peter has a strong dislike for the Beach Boys.

While we couldn't find a full version of this compilation CD floating around for streaming, you can view the magazine it came with on Google Books: https://books.google.com/books?id=2ywEAAAAMBAJ

Peter and Dre make their way through the too-short Volume 3 by Miles Davis, and figure out that they don't really know the Miles Davis chronology all that well in the first place.

Volume 3 was later reissued as part of the Miles Davis compilation Take Off: The Complete Blue Note Albums, which you can hear on YouTube Music (it's tracks 13-18 there).

We're not breaking ground; we're just listening to music, and talking about it. One album at a time.

Each quick episode, Peter and one of his friends talk about one album from his personal collection.

No fuss. Nothing fancy. Just taking time to listen.
