The Jukebox Graduate (Episode 02): Remember, This Is Important (To Me)!

From Pollywood Studios in Eagle Rock, California it's the second episode of The Jukebox Graduate. Dave Rayburn and Eugene Edwards discuss why Chuck Berry matters, how Willie Nelson and X remind us of singularity and legacy, NAMM 2017, and the 10th annual Record Store Day.

    

We listen to tracks from Tift Merritt and Abel Franco, and we discuss the new stuff that has been filling our ears. Amongst all this we will hear drops from just about everyone we've mentioned as well as Paul McCartney, Elvis Costello, and the Chi-Lites.
