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.

For the final episode of Season 1, we’re heading back to December 2011, to a night that still echoes through Tāmaki Makaurau — the Foo Fighters at Western Springs. This week’s track, “These Days” from the album Wasting Light, captures everything the band does best: raw emotion, stadium‑sized energy, and that unmistakable Dave Grohl grit.

This finale is a celebration: of the band, the song, and everyone who’s come along for the ride ...

In this episode, we dive into the album that didn’t just redefine Green Day, it reshaped an entire era of rock. Released in September 2004, American Idiot marked the moment the three‑chord punks from Oakland transformed into one of the most ambitious and culturally resonant bands of their generation.

We explore how the band channelled post 9/11 tension, media saturation, and political frustration into a bold, theatrical concept albu...

In this episode, we rewind to two very different points in life, connected by one timeless Kylie Minogue classic. First, we head back to 1989 and Kylie’s sparkling second album Enjoy Yourself, where “Never Too Late” first burst into the world — all bright pop, big optimism, and pure Stock Aitken Waterman magic. Then we fast‑forward to 2014, when Kylie reimagined the same song for The Abbey Road Sessions, transforming it into a tend...

In this episode, we head back to the West Midlands for the beginning of a new millennium. The memory moment is a melange of stories that show the zeitgeist of youth and unplanned days and nights out! The song is a belter, Superstition by Stevie Wonder. One of the best songs ever written in my view! So come on, let's rewind together to memories from the 2000 and looking back to 1972 when the album was released.

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.

This song carried me through the fear, the excitement, and the leap into a new chapter.

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 ...
