July 28, 2024 part 1: One Offs & Wonders

Episode #1048

Pre-recorded today because we still can't access the studio due to work going on at the university. Pre-recorded episodes sometimes allow me to explore a theme that I've been thinking about and spin some artists and songs that you don't normally hear on the show. Today's show contains a lot of stuff outside of the usual folky singer/songwriter fare. I'm pretty sure that some of you will hate some of it, but I bet if you give it a chance, you might just hear something you adore.

Today's show is an exploration of one offs and one hit wonders. These aren't your typical one hit wonders, these are either bands & artists that only released one project or an album or song that stands out in a band/artist's catalogue as being a bigger "hit" than the rest. It's very subjective and totally for fun and in no way meant as any kind of an insult to any of the bands/artists! After all, as the opening number tells us, one hit wonders have achieved something that very few do! These aren't major hits destined for hits compilations, they're beloved favourites that I enjoy revisiting over and over again. I hope that you will too!
