    Episode 10: I feel fine by The Beatles
    Oct 20 2026

    John Lennon took a blues guitar riff from a 1961 song by Bobby Parker. Ringo Starr took a 1959 groove by Ray Charles. But it all started with an Afro-Cuban jazz tune by Dizzy Gillespie. Separate songs that time weaves together.

  • Episode 9: The James Bond Theme

    Episode 9: The James Bond Theme
    May 7 2026

    Composer Monty Norman's background was in musical theatre. Cubby Broccoli was one of his backers. So when everything lines up to start filming the 1st James Bond movie, Monty Norman is hired on to write the soundtrack. It sounded like a holiday, but it wasn't. We dive into the early British rock & roll scene and see how that collided with films about rampant teenagers. Characters with outlandish names, intrigue and indifference. It could only be James Bond.

    How a bunch of New York punks took a Rocksteady song from 1967 to the top of the charts. We track how Blondie recorded tasty covers as well as their own original songs through their career. A deep dive into Jamaican music, the world of the 'off-beat' - and the influence of Rocksteady on Reggae.
