The Imbalanced History of Rock and Roll

Go ahead and try to focus on "the major period" of an artist whose career is as expansive as Jimmy Buffett's! The Imbalanced Brothers tried... So they dove into the juicy(fruit) center and worked their front and backwards, trying to cover what is essentially a fraction of the story. But it's a start...

There are quite a few interesting characters in this story, including a surprise member of the Coral Reefers! Now go find your Parrot Head gear, crack that bottle of rum, and hit "play!"

And play we shall...

First, The Imbalanced Boys take turns laying out their 5 Fave Summertime albums, and then some! Albums that remind them of Summer!

After a quick refreshment stop they dig into their 5 Fave live albums, the ones that really stuck with them! Concerts and live music are a part of Summer, and that means a lot to all of us!

Jon Scott has visited the Imbalanced Boys before, but frankly, it's been too long! He gives the guys an update on sales for Tom Petty & Me, and talks about the #Audible version of the book.

What also is inside this week's visit is Jon's intersection with The Sixties & #worldhistory.

Markus & Ray really enjoyed the other stories Jon told them about hang time with Tom Petty, the Wilburys' fax promotion, being on the road with Olivia Newton-John, our friend Kevin Gunn, and Little Johnny Cougar! Plus, major league music biz players galore!

When you do a podcast, you talk, you plan, you read (trust us these two read A LOT!), and you discover things! In this case Markus & Ray found out that they both have a serious level of respect and love for the eponymous debut album by Tracy Chapman, among other things. In this episode, the game-changing impact of Tracy, and this album, are underlined and explored.

Song by song you are reminded why it is such an iconic debut, and still influential almost forty years later!
