    We've discussed one album from 1991 each month here on the podcast and that still leaves a lot of great records on the table. Jeff and Matt circle back for a free form discussion regarding some of their favorites. They welcome a special guest from Columbus, Ohio's own Watershed, who put out their debut major label release on Epic Records in 1991. Guitarist Colin Gawel sits in with Matt and Jeff to share stories about Spin Doctors, touring with Insane Clown Posse, the Smithereens and lots more!

  • Rush - Roll the Bones
    2021/10/06

    Why are we here? Because we're here ... to discuss Rush's Roll the Bones. Why does it happen? Because this album happened to be released in 1991, of course! For this episode, Ted Asregadoo, co-host of the Planet LP podcast, joins Matt and Jeff to discuss the Canadian power trio's 14th studio album — and how it fits into the coming AOR upheaval that was only beginning to be felt.

    2021/08/20

    What do you get when you put the broken pieces of Journey and the Babys together and use them to make a brand new supergroup? Bad English, of course — and although the band's first album was a huge hit, that was absolutely not the case for their 1991 followup, Backlash. How did it go so wrong, so fast? Jay Kumar joins Matt and Jeff for a look at this jinxed sophomore effort — and how it fits into the year AOR ate itself.

  • Foreigner - Unusual Heat
    2021/07/05

    Foreigner sold records by the fistful during the '70s and '80s, racking up a string of AOR and Top 40 singles with singer Lou Gramm at the mic. After he left, the group soldiered on with new singer Johnny Edwards — but the end result, 1991's Unusual Heat, ended up being the band's first flop. What the hell happened, and how does it fit into the year AOR ate itself? Singer, songwriter, author, and podcaster Ben Arthur joins Jeff and Matt to figure it out.
