This week we’re discussing every album by Donnie and Joe Emerson. The Emersons recorded one album in the late 70s as teenagers in a hilariously expensive home studio built by their father. The result was a charmingly rough collection of songs obviously written by kids. They quickly faded into obscurity until they were discovered in the 2010s and miraculously gifted a second life. I hope you’re ready for a good time.
Closing track: “My Heart” from Dreamin’ Wild (1979)
