In the spirit of The Raconteurs' new album, I have rush-released a new podcast. Although seven podcasts in a year is hardly profilic, it's been nice to look at the stats and see people have actually listened to them. Or at least downloaded them. Which is the same thing to me. But back to the point, hopefully this latest podcast doesn't sound too shoddy and even if it does, at least there is plenty of great music to overshadow any of my failings. I've also added a line of description per song, just so you have some sort of an idea of what's to come. Maybe it'll get more punters in eh? No, didn't think so.
And just a quick shoutout to a couple of new podcasts that have cropped up and are pretty decent. Firstly, there's Simon's weekly podcasts over at Jarock [link] then we've got Sid from Music Liberation delving into the world of podcasting at Music Liberation [link].
