Listener Reviews

Lots of great insights and knowledgeable guests here! My only quibble is that the music samples are played at clip that’s faster than the originals.

There is more music you don't know, than music you know. That's why I listen to TRGMH, every now and again, a pearl of a record I would never have found out about. My favorite, nerd podcast.

Without music, life would be a mistake and without TRGMH podcasts would be as well. Thanks to Rob and friends for the healthy reminder

Thoroughly impressed with how devoted Rob Elba is in his mission to discuss vital albums of our times. It’s not easy to continue to do a weekly podcast, but he’s in it ~ for over six years. Kudos to Rob & TRGMH!

Big Science is amazing. Shoutout to Ken Nordine/Word Jazz.

Next time you chat with him give him our love from the Verna family in Overbrook West Philly. Lisa says “Hi!” -Gino Verna (the youngest brother)

I like this music podcasts best as it does not stick to one artists or one genre and goes through the whole album. The back catalogue is worth checking out. I’ve discovered and rediscovered artists or albums and look forward to every week’s new one.

Just now thru this podcast and Joey’s book “Punk under the Sun” am I now being introduced to many of the bands from the 80s South Florida Music Scene…oh well better late than never right? Thank you all very much for that 🎸🏆👍

Rob

Rob and his guests do a great job of taking a deep dive right into their favorite records. It’s a fun conversation between music junkies and a must listen for both those familiar and unfamiliar with the album du jour.

Very good dissection of Matthew Sweet’s Girlfriend album. Would be interesting for you to cover a Richard Lloyd solo album. Just saw him live in New Haven; he still has it; great band.

I really enjoy TRGMH which is always entertaining, no matter the record or the guest. Rob does a good job keeping the conversation going and focused on the music. Pick a record from the episode list and jump in! If you're a real music fan, you'll find something you like I like to yell at my computer when they make a historical mistake or like a bad record.

Review That Record Got Me High? I would do anything for Rob, but I won't do that.

One of my favorite music podcasts. I’ve discovered some albums that have become essential for me. It’s also really fun listening to Rob and his guests talk about albums I already love. Great stuff!

I used to feel weird about secretly looking down on people whose musical tastes differed from mine, but now I realize it's the only way one can be sure their opinions are valid. That Record Got Me High bravely goes where few podcasts have gone before. Now, when my friends mention a band I don't like I can fully judge them without remorse. Thank you!!

I give this podcast a 5 for the content and a 0 for their memes!

Any type of record could be chosen to focus the episode on with a guest and the hosts are up to the task to listen, inform and entertain each time. Love to listen to this podcast

If you're a music lover, you should give this a listen. Barry and Rob break down outstanding records for a track-by-track look that always proves insightful. Typically, a guest will break out a record that DID IT for them, so you're getting the PASSION of music aficionados discussing what they love. I've been turned on to GREAT music that I somehow missed out on, and whether I like the music or not, I've loved every podcast.

I could listen to these guys talk about The Fall all day long

It’s inspiring to hear these guys talk about great albums of independent rock and the albums that inspired these bands too. It gives me a whole new appreciation for music I love. Great details, chances to learn what the actual lyrics are and stories about the absurdities of the makings of these albums—all included! I want to give it an extra star for the Billy Taylor name drops!!!

This is an awesome podcast if you’re trying to dig and little deeper to fully nerd out on the cool type of classic music.

Casual and light hearted discussion on some really great records. These guys get into the individual tracks and back stories behind the Albums.

This podcast is fun and informal while being somewhat scholarly and intelligent at the same time.

If you’re a music nut you’ll get a kick out of this freewheeling, casual, enthusiastic discussion of records that the hosts are particularly fond of. Albums are dissected track by track, observations made, jokes cracked and judgments (good-natured, not smug or arrogant) rendered. Check it out, people!
