00:09 - Intro

Welcome to B-Side, the mini-series from Through the Creative Door. Join Alexis and Sam as they dive into the timeless world of vinyl. For Alexis, vinyl was more than music. It was a Sunday ritual she shared with her dad, listening, talking and soaking in the stories behind each album and the artwork on every sleeve. Though her dad is no longer with us, she continues this tradition with her friend, Sam Timmerman. Join them as they share their passion for vinyl and the stories these records hold. 

 

00:44 - Alexis (Host)

Hello brother. 

 

00:46 - Sam (Host)

Hello, hello. Look at you. It's good to see your face again. Other end of the country once more

 

00:49 - Alexis (Host)

And for the people listening, hearing your voice. 

 

00:57 - Sam (Host)

Exactly. 

 

00:58 - Alexis (Host)

All right, what do you got for me, brother? Wait, let me start the timer Ten minutes. Ten minutes All right, what have you got? 

 

01:04 - Sam (Host)

I have Sunshower by Couch. 

 

01:08 - Alexis (Host)

That is a perfect album title for something really gorgeous the abstract-y artwork on the front is really pretty. 

 

01:17 - Sam (Host)

Having not even thought of this until this exact moment. Sunshower is actually one of my favourite experiences just being in a sunshower. 

 

01:28 - Alexis (Host)

Oh really. 

 

01:28 - Sam (Host)

And it could sound super artsy and weird, but you know that's just me. And yeah, sunshowers are beautiful and I just thought that then. 

 

01:39 - Alexis (Host)

Now that you say that, that's actually probably pretty valid, because one I do like sunshine and I like the sound of rain. 

 

01:50 - Sam (Host)

Yeah, it's beautiful. This is going deeper than I thought we were going to go, so Do sun showers happen as much over there as over in the west, as we might say? 

 

02:05 - Alexis (Host)

I mean, I don't know percentages, but they happen sometimes. 

 

02:10 - Sam (Host)

That was my attempt at a segue to my hot take, hot pick of the album which is. Which was horrible, but we take it Again wasn't pre-planned. 

 

02:26 - Alexis (Host)

I apologise, but a hot pick for me is LA. Okay, talk me through this. 

 

02:33 - Sam (Host)

Partly because I mean what a sound We'll talk about the album sound in a minute, but what a sound that track has. It is massive. 

 

02:42 - Alexis (Host)

Absolutely huge. So for our listeners, I think we need to paint a little bit of a picture. 

 

02:47 - Sam (Host)

Yes. 

 

02:48 - Alexis (Host)

These guys are a seven-piece funk-pomp band out of the States. 

 

02:54 - Sam (Host)
