Do you remember 1987? If not, do you wish you did? Then you need to listen to this podcast.

Joe, Greg and I play a few tunes from that year, discuss some of the movies that were big (and are still relevant today) and revisit a few other pop culture topics.

What does it sound like when a bluegrass band covers Van Halen? Or when Ozzy Osbourne covers the Bee Gees? OR when a jazz band goes thrash? OR, and this is could be the craziest of them all, a Crash Test Dummy puts a spin on Britney Spears?

There is only one way to find out and that is by listening to the latest addition of the Social Blend Craniummelody episode.

And, for all of you who like a little talk mixed with your music, we talk in depth about the merits of cover music, share some interesting music trivia that you probably never knew and much, much more.

Go listen to Social Blend now because it is guaranteed to brighten your day (Not kidding either!).

What do you get when you grab a Geek of Doom (Greg Davies), an electronic musician who loves gaming (Terr Ciavarra) and a music blogging folk rock musician dad (me) and record their conversation?

You get a podcast filled with…

• Songs by underrated musicians that pretty pretty damn good
• Music facts that I bet you may not know but wished you had (or not, fun either way)
• Insight on being a dad and musician (Greg asked what my kids thought about their daddy being a musician)
• An exploration of Micheal Bolton the rocker versus Micheal Bolton the crooner (this will surprise you)
• A little Google+ for bands chat (We just couldn’t resist)
• The merits of being an “analog” artist versus a “digital” artist and something about vinyl.
• And some other stuff I missed

In one of the funnest episodes I’ve ever done with the guys from Social Blend we are joined by Empress Eve Conte from GeeksOfDoom.com to take a look and listen to music from 1986. Oh! And we talk about some of the movies from that year too.

I think you will be amazed, as we were, at all of the great music and movies that came out that years.

Here’s another episode of Craniumelody over on Social Blend. this time the guys and I tried to come up with music to share that is the soundtrack to our lives (not and easy task by the way).

Also, we have some pretty interesting discussions on other things like the Rock Against Drugs campaign of the 80′s and and the one and only Kiss album to never go platinum or gold.

In true Musicgoat fashion, the music on this podcast ranges from acoustic soul to straight folk to all points in between.

Mellow, insightful, upbeat, soulful, motivational and a just an overall great podcast to grab a drink and kick back too.

It is time once again for another installment of Cranium Melody. This is a podcast where I get together with Greg and Joe over at the Social Blend Podcast and do nothing but talk about and play music from pretty much any genre.

In this installment we each went deep into our personal archives to dig out some tunes that are either not well know (and good) or are very old and have special meaning.

Go listen to Cranium Melody IV now and check out all the links and videos in the show notes (great job Greg and Joe).

Cranium Melody III

I just wanted to pass on a little something for you listening pleasure. Every 3 or 4 months I get together with the guys from Social Blend (Joe and Gregg) to talk about underrated and/or little known bands and artists.

I know you are going to dig it because it really doesn’t get much more “Musicgoat” than the fairly wide spectrum of music we play and discuss (some metal, country, Americana, hard rock and some indie alternative. What we do is pick a few selection and then tell a story about each (which generated some good, meaty discussion as well).

Make sure you are gonna be able to turn it up because I’ve compiled some of the hardest rocking, energy filled tunes ever to grace Musicgoat feed. Strap on your seat belt and prepared to be launched into another energy level.
