Every quote links to the moment in the episode.
"This is something I listened to a lot. This was a big inspiration also for recording because it sounds very... like, let's play some trumpet here, we'll put some... y'know, it's very effortless and sort of a bit like home recording style that we were drawn into as well."Watch this moment
"This is 'Fruit Bats 'Absolute Loser.' Eric Johnson. This is produced by a good friend of ours named Thom Monahan who worked a bit on our new record 'Breaking Point' and it's really solid, every song is fantastic, great songwriting and the production is great."Watch this moment
"This is another great record that I don't have on vinyl but I mean, Fred Neil, his songs and his voice it's not a thing I ever can stop listening to. It's just beautiful."Watch this moment
"One of my favorite bands of all time, not very unique but I love The Byrds. I wanted to chase that guitar sound and those harmonies, when I heard that when I was 6 or 7 years old."Watch this moment
"I almost started crying when they did 'Early Morning Rain' because it was perfect for that flight."Watch this moment
"Indestructible Beat of Soweto, an 80s South African classic. This is good too. That's fantastic, that's amazing."Watch this moment
