Surface Noise | Bonus Trax: The Return of Overrated, Underrated, and Properly Rated

After the mics cool down on SURFACE NOISE,  the conversation keeps spinning on BONUS TRAX —and this time, it’s all about perspective. In this laid-back, off-the-cuff episode, the panel dives into a spirited round of Overrated, Underrated, or Properly Rated, taking a closer look at the careers of some of music’s most talked-about figures. From legendary icons to polarizing hitmakers, we break down where these artists truly stand today—cutting through nostalgia, hype, and revisionist history to ask: are they getting too much credit, not enough, or just the right amount? Along the way, expect plenty of laughs, sharp takes, and a few surprising opinions that might challenge your own rankings. It’s a fun, unfiltered extension of the SURFACE NOISE conversation—perfect for vinyl record collectors, music fans, and anyone who loves debating the legacy of the artists who shaped the soundtrack of our lives. 🎧 Drop the needle and join the debate!      ⏬⏬⏬⏬   For more on our special guest Melinda Murphy: https://www.youtube.com/@MelindaMurphy   For more on host Concert Buddie: https://www.youtube.com/@ConcertBuddie https://concertbuddie.com IG: @concertbuddie   For more on Arnaldo (fidelios_frequency):  https://www.youtube.com/@fidelios_frequency IG: @fidelios_frequency   For more on Chris (Groove Seeker): https://www.youtube.com/@Groove_Seeker IG: @thegrooveseeker   For more on the immortal Jose Moreno Rahn (aka John Bong): https://www.youtube.com/@josemorenorahn https://auroracentralrecords.bandcamp.com   For more on Jason Roxas: https://www.youtube.com/@JasonRoxas     For more information on Vinyl Community Podcasts: https://vinylcommunitypodcasts.com . . . . .   Don't forget to visit FOTS (friends of the show) Vinyl Storage Solutions for the BEST sleeves to protect your best records (and your worst).
