In this episode, Craig and Kevin travel back to 1981 — a year brimming with genre-bending breakthroughs. Craig highlights the rootsy dub rhythms of Love Joys – Reggae Vibes, while Kevin fires things up with Riot – Fire Down Under, offering a nod to Y&T – Earthshaker along the way. Their journey through the year’s sonic spectrum leads to a brief tribute to Ozzy Osbourne’s The Ultimate Sin, celebrating its anniversary and place in the hard rock canon.

They cap things off with a bit of freeform riffing, discussing the lasting influence of Amoeba’s What’s In My Bag series and Trackstar’s deep-dive music content on YouTube. It’s all about where we find music, how we connect to it, and the joy of discovery.
