The Album Anniversary Podcast!
by Caleb The Spy
Over the last couple years I have documented the released date of thousands of albums and every day on social media I post about those albums. I call these album anniversaries. I have had a couple different formats on this show but, this podcast is a chance to take a closer look at some of the albums on my calendar. I'm a fan of all genres but tend to focus on ska, punk, and alternative rock, and a variety of Christian (CCM) music albums.Original chickadee painting by my daughter.
