Various Artists - The Indestructible Beat of Soweto (497) and Lana Del Rey - Norman Fucking Rockwell! (321)

This week....the greatest album ever to be marketed under the heading “world music,” and and album that Elton John called timeless. We go back to 1985, which only one of us can actually remember IRL, and to 2019 which really seems far to recent to include albums that make it in to a list of the best 500 ever made.The Apollo Audio studio is also vibrant with the sounds of the Paul Jones Blues Band this week so there is a little bit of musical background to our discussion - plus we've got a very special guest interview with Gavin Thomas - a man who listened to the entire list of 500 albums in just under a year - that's commitment for you!The Apollo Audio Podcast is recorded at Apollo Audio studios in Hertford and is produced and edited by Martin LumsdenFroody Productions 2022Drop us a line at [email protected] Apollo Audio Podcast is hosted by record producer Martin Lumsden and musician and studio owner Billy Hills and is recorded at Apollo Audio Hertford.Each episode offers insight into songs, records, and the creative process, drawn from real-world experience in studios and making music.Also available to watch on YouTube and Spotify📍 www.apollo-audio.co.uk📷 Instagram: @apolloaudiopodcast📧 [email protected] Froody Music Production.
