Ray is infinitely better than RayJ
Listened to this podcast because I’m a fan of Ken’s work. So glad I tuned in! Got yourself a new listener. Looking forwards to the next!
Wow! This is incredible. For a 43 year old “punk and hardcore” kid to find this podcast years after it started is a real treat! The interviews are incredible and I love hearing what my musical heroes have to say. Thanks for this podcast, Ray!!!
This is a great podcast. The interviewer is very well educated in the subject. Does his homework to make sure to ask accurate questions. The episode with Rama Mayo made me go back to all those amazing records he put out.
It was a great talk for no.500 with Milo from the Descendants 👌. Well done Ray! Keep up the great work!!
