Every quote links to the moment in the episode.
Wild Gift
X ·1981
"Certainly I would say in the top five would be X Wild Gift and of course the first album Los Angeles is potentially a little more LA based but actually lyrically there are way more LA references in this album and it's just one of the most perfect start to finish records ever."

Fragile
Yes ·1971
"Fragile by Yes, the first concert I ever saw was Yes at Madison Square Garden in 1977. I was 12 or 13 and it was a school night, and I felt like the coolest person on the planet."

I Only Have Eyes for You
The Flamingos ·2018
"One of my favorite recordings of all time is I only have eyes for you, which of course everybody knows, but if you listen to it, it just sounds like it was recorded underwater in a methadone clinic. It's so slow and atmospheric and like it's just so narcotic, like it's the most narcotic sounding recording."
