Help Us Stranger: Analysis & Review vol.2

What this episode covers

What did you do, when we were gone? Listenin' to some other podcast, or perhaps a lovely new song? And what would you do, now that we're back? We hope you download this episode and enjoy some sweet, rockin' Raconteurs tracks! The Third Men Podcast is back with pt2 of our deep dive into <em>Help Us Stranger</em> - the new hit record from the finest rock'n'roll band on the planet - The Raconteurs! Last episode we covered how the band got back together to record the new LP, and this week we're here to get down and dirty in them sweet, sweet tracks. From the vicious <em>Don't Bother Me</em> to the tender <em>Shine a Light</em> to the downright touching <em>Thoughts And Prayers</em>, we cover them all and rate the record on our patented (it's not) three-men rating system. We'll also go over reception, chart position, technical credits and everything else we could find on this marvel of modern rock'n'roll wizardry. Plus, guest Josh Akin joins the conversation to talk all things Raconteurs, and a meet-up at the band's Mission Ballroom performance in Denver, CO this past October the 9th (John Lennon's birthday, for those of you keeping score). Will James be forced to hear an impression of himself filling dead air? Yes. Will Paul say something flippant and controversial? Probably. Will you not be entertained?! We can't not figure out double negatives, so yes AND no I THINK. Anyway, enjoy the show, folks - and shine a light on this new episode goodness!<br /><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
