All Time Top Ten

We sincerely hope that we haven't committed blasphemy in the eyes of those in the Church Of Pete. We love The Who! We love Pete, Roger, John and Keith and we really love Tommy. Doing our Classic Albums Worst To First treatment to the songs on Tommy seems crazy, but it was a really fun way for us to dig into the guts of a great album, and appreciate each song on its own merit. My mom, the great Elizabeth Eisen was super jazzed about this idea so we had to do it. The top half of the list is featured here in Part 2, with picks 12-1 - the best songs on Tommy, and some truly incredible songwriting and musical performances.

One of the best things about doing this podcast is when we get to put ourselves in a place and time. For Top Ten Essential College Rock Bands, our special guests Jeremy Levy and David Robinson have put us in the rockin' college town of Columbia, MO and landed us squarely in the heart of the Essential College Rock Bands timeline - the 80s and early 90s. It's been a blast digging into this topic made up of groups of incredibly creative artists doing their own thing in the face of Reagan-era blandness and corporate consolidation. This is the true rock underground of the era and the link between punk and 90s alternative. Bands 5-1 are revealed here in part 2 of 2.

Mainstream culture in the 1980s was a Ronnie Reagan wet dream. Conformity and corporate consolidation made for a rough time for unique artists looking to have their voices heard. Luckily, there was college radio, and a glowing underground rock scene featuring a truly eclectic collection of bands. ATTT is honored to welcome back our good friend Jeremy Levy and pod newbie David Robinson. Jeremy and David lived the life of College Rock, as DJs and scenesters in the late 80s and early 90s in Columbia, Missouri, one of America's premier college towns with a great local radio station. Top Ten Essential College Rock Bands takes us back to those heady times when being weird was a Kool Thing, if you knew about it.

Their story needs to be told in 2 parts, and that's what ATTT is all about this week.

We don't need politicians and other nefarious actors telling us what our favorite songs mean. We have brains and ears and we also have the artists themselves to tell us the true meaning of the art they put into the world.

We hate it when things get misinterpreted, and we really hate it when it happens for nefarious reasons.

The dirtiest four letter word is A.I. The moment the robots take over the world, we die. We die. For this reason and many others we're ready to Melt The Bots with the second half of our list in Top Ten Songs Against A.I. Part 2. Joe Lavelle came through for us in style, as he helped us put together a playlist befitting our current situation, with songs that question and resist an uncertain future, and songs that value humanity over machinery. We deserve a voice in whether or not this "world-changing" technology is all they say it is, and by "they", we mean the people with the money. For a hundred reasons, we're against it, and we have the songs to back us up.If you missed Part 1, start here:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/episode-717-top-ten-songs-against-a-i-part-1-w-joe-lavelle/id573735994?i=1000762382186Do yourself a favor and take in the official Top Ten Songs Against A.I. playlist, featuring every song heard in Parts 1 & 2:https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3FQjX5zA7X9QCPCQsaexFm?si=bab9644a12b3440cWe've lowered our prices, but not our standards over at the ATTT Patreon!

We're not all cyborgs yet! ATTT is in total lockstep with our good friend Joe Lavelle on the subject of a.i. - we hate it. We hate that it's being foisted on us, doing lasting damage in multiple ways, and we hate that for many, it's a shortcut to thinking - a way to delegate all thought to a bot. We'd rather be writing our own blurbs about this brand new episode, thank you very much. Top Ten Songs AGAINST A.I. is a bit high-concepty, but the basic jist is that these are songs about being wary of and resisting an upredictable and scary future, while also featuring songs that emphasize humanity over machinery. Don't forget the humans are the best! Picks 10-6 are featured here in Part 1 of 2. We've lowered our prices, but not our standards over at the ATTT Patreon!

If you're lucky enough to get old, think of all you've gained. First off, you're alive, which is better than the alternative 100% of the time. Secondly, you can use all of the wisdom and knowledge you've collected over a lifetime of experiences, and you can use it to find ways for you and others around you to be happy.
