To wrap up Season Two of “Out of the Main,” Tom and John clear the decks (ding!) of various notes and conversation topics they’ve been collecting all year but never got to. From interesting anecdotes to factoids learned but never discussed, this episode as a little bit of everything:
Things Discussed:
- Why would it take 81 takes to record one yacht rock song?
- Jeff Porcaro’s perfected pursuit of imperfection
- Chick Corea’s Cheap but Good Advice for Playing Music in a Grouop
- What is this Laurel Canyon we keep bringing up?
- Who are the most recorded drummers of all time?
- What if Bill Champlin had joined Toto? It would sound like this.
- What if Prince were a session cat from the yacht rock era? It would sound like this.
- Teaser announcements for Season 3
The Lightning Round:
- Does It Float Your Boat?
- Buried Treasures
- Off the Map
