The Rewind Sessions - Vinyl to Virtual

The Rewind Sessions - Vinyl to Virtual

Hello and welcome to the 'Rewind Sessions'. This podcast is for anyone who’s ever heard a song and felt time collapse — suddenly you’re back in your first flat, your school, your parents’ living room, or at a concert with friends. It’s especially for those of us 40 and up who grew up with vinyl, cassettes, CDs, and radio countdowns — and still feel the pull of music from the '60s, '70s, '80s, '90s and 00s. It is also for anyone with a love of music no matter your age. Each episode dives into one song that takes me back to a specific moment in time — not just to the year it was released, but to the year it mattered. We explore the full album it came from, the story behind the artist, what was happening in the world, and why it still resonates today. Whether you’re a lifelong fan or a curious listener, the Rewind Sessions is your space to reflect, rediscover, and reconnect — one track at a time.

In this episode, we rewind to late 2003 and the moment Life for Rent became the soundtrack to one of the biggest turning points in my twenties. I had the dream flat, my master’s underway, brilliant friends… and yet life was nudging me toward a massive change. This song carried me through the fear, the excitement, and the leap into a new chapter.

Join me as we step back into that London‑girl era and unpack the anthem that pushed me t...

Today, we head back to late 1997 to listen to A change would do you good by Sheryl Crow. Hear about how we got way closet to the action than we thought we would at a live concert in 1997.

Welcome to episode 2 of the Rewind Sessions. Today, we go back to 2000 in my life and 1971 for the original release of the album, Blue by Joni Mitchell. The song for today has a Christmas theme, its River! If you are getting ready for Christmas and don't want to listen to Wham or Mariah, one more time today, then this show is for you! Blue truly is a classic album that needs to be in your music collection.

Kia ora, I’m Tracy Fleming, and in this episode I’m rewinding to Ashes by Embrace — the anthem that lit up 2004 with resilience and hope. This isn’t just about a chart single; it’s about the comeback spirit, the fan‑driven push to get it to number one, and the way songs like this become soundtracks to our own turning points. I’ll share my memories of that era, the album’s highlights, and the cultural backdrop that made Ashes so pow...

Hello, I’m Tracy — a proud Gen X music fan raised on the sounds of the ’60s, ’70s, and ’80s. My teenage years were soundtracked by mixtapes, Top of the Pops, and late-night radio. I spent the ’90s  and 00s attending live gigs and festivals, and now, thanks to my kids, I’m discovering a whole new wave of music.

The Rewind Sessions is my love letter to the songs and stories that shaped me — and maybe shaped you too. This podcast ...
