Soundtrack Six-Pack, Volume Eleven Jon Lamoreaux of The Hustle Podcast, Joe Royland of Sit & Spin with Joe, and Eric Miller of Pods & Sods are back with the latest volume in the Soundtrack Six-Pack series. Why would Dan Aykroyd with a bad wig, a fake mechanical hand, and a put-upon accent ever presume to dance in front of James Brown?? Why wouldn't Gabe Kaplan be the ideal choice for a basketball coaching job? Why wouldn't a NASCAR version of Top Gun work if Tom Cruise was cast?? How does Bobcat Goldthwait dressed as a rampaging Godzilla NOT win an Academy Award?!? Well, it was the 80s and not everything was as cool as a competitive arm-wrestling film starring Sylvester Stallone, let's be real. We get into all of that and more. Plus we have a great listener pick from our buddy Alex Alt from the Sly-Dog Music Cast!

Mutlu joins Eric in conversation to discuss the beginnings of his musical career, coming up in the Philly singer-songwriter and soul scene, how he connected with the likes of Daryl Hall and John Oates, T-Bone Wolk, Amos Lee, and The Hooters, life on the road, his arc of being signed to a major label, getting lost in one of those all-too-familiar major label shuffles, and most importantly some of the origins and meanings behind the songs on his new independently released EP, Good Trouble. Mutlu is at heart a soul singer and songwriter, but his work ranges from super sexy songs complete with a wink and nod to 70s and 90s R&B, fun songs, songs with important social commentary, tips of the cap to styles like reggae and rap, songs about emotions we all feel like depression and loss, and even mixing in some traditional and pop influences from his Turkish heritage.

Six-Pack of Foreigner, Volume One On this Six-Pack episode, Paul Underwood of Glory Days Radio, Jon Lamoreaux of The Hustle Podcast, and Eric Miller of Pods & Sods are blasting some hits and some deep cuts from these undeniable jukebox heroes.

Lou Gramm's voice coupled with Mick Jones' catchy riffs and guitar mastery were staples of rock radio - and still are to this day. As usual, we've got some interesting detours and deep cuts that you may have never heard. Fun to discover, always. But we've also got a hit or two, lots of laughs, and some terrible singing. So sit back, let us show you what love is as we get hot blooded AND remain cold as ice with Foreigner!

We picked some wonderful songs - some heavy, some a bit rock-funky, some on the ballad side of things, but all incredible. We also discuss their place in the music scene - are they under-appreciated? Eric closes the episode out with a deeply emotional dedication. So sit back, turn your head to spit me out, YEAH, and gel with us as we rock out to some Collective Soul!

Six-Pack of Nile Rodgers, Volume One On this Six-Pack episode Jon Lamoreaux of The Hustle Podcast, and Jeff Harris of Behind The Grooves join Eric Miller of Pods & Sods to celebrate the work of Nile Rodgers. The scope of Nile's work cannot be overstated - from Chic to the early days of rap music to all the MASSIVE pop hits of the 80s and 90s and even through his modern releases, both behind the board and on the stage, there is no one that compares to Nile Rodgers and his distinct, legendary Hitmaker guitar. We bring six fun picks covering just the tip of the iceberg of Nile's work, share some laughs, quite a bit of trivia, discuss his cultural importance, and even get visited by a Shakespearean rendition of Nile's Yum Yum.

Matt shares memories of the early days seeming them live and some info about what Dean is up to these days, we get into the lineup changes, we get into the obvious Cinderella comparisons, and we definitely get into some of their classic work - hard pop-rock at it's finest.

Aaliyah rose to prominence quickly and scored quite a slew of unforgettable hit singles, records, soundtrack and movie appearances, and awards. She was clearly destined for even more... imagine where she'd be today if not for that fateful accident that claimed her life. We speculate and celebrate her life and work through some of her classic singles and deeper cuts. So sit back and discover or rediscover the soulful brilliance of Ms Aaliyah Haughton.

Ric's career as a songwriter goes back to the late 60s, his relationship with Benjamin Orr started in 1967 and the two stuck together through the 70s in various configurations. But it wasn't until the two found themselves in Boston and connected with Elliot Easton, Greg Hawkes, and David Robinson that The Cars were truly born. They came out strong with what many consider to be the greatest debut album ever. A series of multi-platinum albums and a slew of hits followed until they kinda broke up in the mid-to-late 80s. Ric continued for the following decades as a beloved solo artist and highly successful and coveted producer.

Six-Pack of Daniel Johnston, Volume One On this Six-Pack episode, Reid Messerschmidt from The Irrationally Exuberant Podcast and BJ Kramp of the Rock And/Or Roll podcast join Eric Miller of Pods & Sods to celebrate the life and work of Daniel Johnston. Daniel is considered by some to be one of the greatest songwriters of all time. His work is extremely lo-fi, literally recorded at home directly onto a tape recorder, but it is also incredibly unguarded and human. He struggled with mental illness and compulsively created music and art throughout his troubled life, topics he regularly covered brilliantly in his work. Some chance high-profile fans, a very welcoming music scene in Austin in the late 1980s, and an undeniable talent has led to Daniel's legacy as a songwriter, cult-like status, and very loyal fanbase. His life's story wonderfully captured in a 2006 documentary, The Devil and Daniel Johnston... if you haven't seen it, go check it out. Daniel passed away this week at the age of 58, and so we wanted to pay tribute. So sit back, kick your mom out of your basement, and join us as we honor the brilliantly unique Daniel Johnston.

An Independence Day Playlist, 2019 James Bryce said, ""Our country is not the only thing to which we owe our allegiance. It is also owed to justice and to humanity. Patriotism consists not in waving the flag, but in striving that our country shall be righteous as well as strong." Gerald Stanley Lee, ""America is a tune. It must be sung together." John Adams said Independence Day "will be celebrated with pomp and parade, bonfires and illuminations from one end of this continent to the other." Adams clearly forgot to mention this particular playlist on this particular podcast network as part of the celebration. But that's ok, he had his hands full elsewise! Please enjoy this collection of songs that reveal, celebrate, and chronicle both the aspirational and the mundane in this unique and ever evolving American Experiment of ours.
