Summary

Episode Description

Remember the first time you heard "Can't Buy Me Love"? We kick off our latest episode of "Music In My Shoes" by celebrating the incredible reach of our podcast, now enjoyed in 35 countries and over 400 cities. We reminisce about the Beatles' "A Hard Day's Night," comparing its UK and US versions, and we share a quirky personal story about displaying the album cover in the bathroom. We also take a nostalgic look at the 1987 film "Can't Buy Me Love," starring Patrick Dempsey and Amanda Peterson, and its unique use of the iconic Beatles' track.

But that's just the beginning. We explore an amusing high school transformation movie, with the Beatles' "Can't Buy Me Love" taking center stage, and we delve into the significance of other Beatles classics like "And I Love Her" and "I'm Happy Just to Dance With You." The episode takes a fun twist as we talk about George Strait breaking a concert attendance record and share a hilarious anecdote involving Flavor Flav and Martha Stewart at a Dead & Company show. We honor the late Bill Walton, the world's tallest deadhead, and his extraordinary connection to the Grateful Dead.

As we wrap up the episode, we journey through music history, starting with a review of two recent Rolling Stones shows that I went to see. Yes Mick, Keith, and Ron can still rock it! We discuss Roger Daltrey's thoughts on the predictability of modern concerts and our own habits of checking setlists. We groove to Donna Summer's timeless hits, including "Hot Stuff" and "I Feel Love," and celebrate her influence in the late '70s and early '80s. Then, we dive into Hüsker Dü's unique sound, focusing on drummer Grant Hart and standout tracks from "Zen Arcade." To conclude, I encourage everyone to keep the music playing. Tune in for a trip down memory lane and some unforgettable musical moments!

Welcome to Song and a Chat. This is the podcast where you'll have the pleasure of listening to a new song each week - plus, you'll get to step into the shoes of a songwriter : You'll hear about the background of the song, the inspiration, how/ why the song came into being. After the song finishes, I'll go over the lyrics and finish each episode by looking at the song from a songwriting point of view. If you just want the song and no talk, the time where the song kicks in will be in the title of each episode.Hi, my name is Pete Pascoe.

I started my journey as an AM radio DJ, then became an FCC licensed DJ who worked at WMUA at UMass Amherst and landed later at community run station WTCC in Springfield. Years went by and then I taught myself how to produce Internet radio broadcasts. I had stints at three stations, most recently at the excellent Eardrumbuzz Radio. I am now an independent podcaster who produces a monthly music show, only available on this site. In 2023, I will reopen my Patreon page as podcasting is not cheap or free, nor is the music I buy. I play an excellent mix of indie rock, post punk, psychedelia, new wave, synth pop, shoegaze, dream pop, and tons of other genres. Please follow my podcast if you like what you hear. Thank you!
