Brian Colburn of Playlist Wars Joins Me to Discuss Our Top 5 Albums of 2021
Call it the "Best of 2021." Or the top 5 or the favorite 5 or whatever you must, but on Episode 33 of Well Disguised Brian Colburn of Playlist Wars fame joins me to go over our favorite records of the year. Hope you enjoy the banter and arguments in what will probably be a divisive episode, but I suppose that's what makes these things fun, right?(Mini-spoiler--I never once discuss the covers record from Monster Magnet. I still don't have my head wrapped around it, to be honest.)If you want to keep up with all things Playlist Wars, follow the link here: https://playlistwarspodcast.com/Get a taste of Brian's music here: https://open.spotify.com/artist/76HzgAP3A7X9dlMDnZft9ZAs always, thanks for listening!

Purpendicular
In 1996, Deep Purple released their first record with Steve Morse on guitar, meaning Ritchie Blackmore was gone, this time for good. What does that album mean? To me, it sounds like being middle-aged. I explain why on this episode.You hear me discuss the delightful Deep Purple Podcast on this episode. You can find those guys here or wherever you get your podcasts: https://deeppurplepodcast.com/

Mississippi Bones--My New Favorite Band
I won't claim this is a "deep dive" or some expert breakdown of what makes Mississippi Bones one of the most fantastic bands I've stumbled across in recent years. And that's because it isn't. This is just Dave and I telling how we did get into the band, the twists and turns as we talked about doing this episode, and just basically geeking out about a group that really scratches that itch. Bands like Mississippi Bones still make me inordinately happy. Look, just about all my favorite rock stars are millionaires and senior citizens too, but bands like this keep me going. Maybe even help keep me young.Lots of show notes here:Mississippi Bones Bandcamp page: https://mississippibones.bandcamp.com/Mississippi Bones merch: https://mississippibones.storenvy.com/productsMississippi Bones Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/mississippibonesMuzzleland Press, where Jonathan Raab is editor: https://www.muzzlelandpress.com/Buy "The Hillbilly Moonshine Massacre" here (I really need one of those affiliate deals): https://www.amazon.com/Hillbilly-Moonshine-Massacre-Jonathan-Raab-ebook/dp/B015L4DC1I/ref=pd_sim_1/140-4273967-8404026?pd_rd_w=kfiGx&pf_rd_p=bc5856f7-ca30-40b6-8d37-7814a2494e00&pf_rd_r=K17SAY0CN40AJDAF3QY6&pd_rd_r=259263a5-1da2-44d8-b506-61dcff8ccb31&pd_rd_wg=0Hrtz&pd_rd_i=B015L4DC1I&psc=1The Adventure Zone is a Maximum Fun podcast you can listen to wherever, but check it out here: https://maximumfun.org/podcasts/adventure-zone/?_sort=date_ascNorth by South, the excellent music podcast hosted by Ry (Sabbath Bloody Podcast) and Clay (Skynyrd Reconsydyrd) is here: https://anchor.fm/northbysouthpodThis is all Ry's fault.

Glenn Hughes--Artist of the Decade
Glenn Hughes--bassist, singer, rocker, Hall of Famer, soul man, and cool guy--got some of the attention he deserved in 2016 when he was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame along with other members of Deep Purple. But that overshadows what I consider to be his real accomplishment...no one had a better decade from 2010-2019 than Glenn Hughes. With Black Country Communion, California Breed, and the awesome solo record "Resonate" Glenn was the most powerful force in rock as he entered his 60s. Listen as I explain why.

Gearheads Unite: Clutch
Who Wants To Rock?My friend and frequent collaborator Dave returns to discuss my favorite band, Clutch. It only took 29 episodes to get to the best band on the planet!Here's the format: I divided up Clutch's 12 studio albums, assigned them randomly, and then Dave and I picked our favorite song from each, leaving us with one playlist. It's probably a good way to introduce Clutch to the unfamiliar and something tp argue about for the dedicated Gearhead.Hope you enjoy! Also, while I usually release every other Tuesday, I'm going to take an episode off. See you again in August.As promised in the episode (and sorry for the muddy audio within), here's a link to the Spotify playlist from the episode. Let me know what you think!https://open.spotify.com/playlist/1pYZGFYC4mZIb8qzZhTfnU?si=fb9b98d55bb346b7
Well Disguised aspires to be a thinking person's podcast about rock music, specifically the rock considered lowbrow by those who are "better." It's for those who believe Jimmy Page is the true King of Rock and Roll and who laughed when David Lee Roth said "rock critics like Elvis Costello because rock critics look like Elvis Costello." If you have grown up, but don't have loud guitar out of your system, then you are of our kind.
