From The Sublime to the Ugly: Deep Music, with Ken Doolittle

The Megablast Podcast

Mar 1 2023 • 3 hrs 16 mins

What makes a truly great song? Rhythm? Guitars? Vocal work? Lyrics? How do the elements mix together to create a deep experience? What moves us to sublime beauty, to revulsion? Ken and Jason dig deep. Artists include: Leonard Cohen, Joni Mitchell, The Rolling Stones, Fiona Apple, Bonnie Prince Billy, and The Brian Jonestown Massacre. As well: I surprise Ken with a French Canadian classic by Les Colocs, and he's inspired to share Rip Rig + Panic (Featuring Neneh Cherry). Then: at the very end: we return to the root, to the father of Rock n Roll, and break it down. Can anyone guess? Winners get a chance to be on Megablast! A must listen!
