このコンテンツについて

On Top of the World is a music history podcast hosted by Shane Louis. New episodes release on Friday.

Originally as a 5 episode series, On Top of the World started as my senior undergraduate thesis (or Independent Study / I.S.) at the College of Wooster under the title Forever On My Mind. I majored in History with a minor in Education, and decided to do my final senior thesis on my favorite genre of music: the blues. With the help and encouragement of the History Department of the College of Wooster, I was able to create 5 episodes outlining my historical argument. I explored the songwriting of blues musicians in the 1960s, when their genre was most popular.

Now, the podcast has become my own median of storytelling and historical thinking when it comes to music. I hope you enjoy my eccentric storytelling, overly-poetic descriptions, and occasional jokes in my podcast.

    In this episode, I (temporarily) end the podcast series with talking about Blues songwriters in the 1960s besides the main three I have discussed, share some contemporary white Blues acts that showed respect to the genre, and I share some of my personal favorite music beyond the 1960s that has been influenced or inspired by the Blues. Stay tuned soon for more episodes, and in a brand new format!
