Ultimate Catalogue Clash

Today we wrap up the Black Crowes third album, amorica. It's a mixed bag for Corey, we talk about one of the more unusual songs in this catalogue, we ruminate on just how high Chris Robinson potentially was during the writing of some of the lyrics on the record and we reveal which album will be covered on the next Kofi episode! But the questions you have to ask yourself are these; will Corey feel a sense of urgency in track 2, will Kev go higher or lower on this side of the album and will whoever is making that rank cheesy foot smell in the lab next door please stop it!The only way to find out is to turn on, tune in, and have mercy baby!Songs covered in this episode: "P. 25 London", "Ballad in Urgency", "Wiser Time", "Downtown Money Waster", "Descending"Don't forget to follow us on social media and leave us a rating/review if you're enjoying the show!Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/UltimateCatalogueClashTwitter: https://twitter.com/UCatalogueClashBluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/ucatalogueclash.bsky.socialDiscord: https://discord.gg/mz9ymTwSSE

"What kinda talk you got around here?""We got both kinds... jibber AND jabber!"That's right, two middle-aged men are gonna talk about music for you because that's as close to a midlife crisis as either of us can be bothered to get! Corey's beloved Roughriders won the Grey Cup (which is Canada's version of the World Series, or the Emmys, or some shit...) so he was in bouyant mood! But will he dig a song about a sunflower? Will Kev figure out what that smell coming from the downstairs bathroom is? And will Side A of Amorica score well between the two of us?The only way to find out is to turn on, tune in, and dress up like the jury.Songs covered in this episode: "Gone", "A Conspiracy", "High Head Blues", "Cursed Diamond", "Nonfiction", "She Gave Good Sunflower"Don't forget to follow us on social media and leave us a rating/review if you're enjoying the show!Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/UltimateCatalogueClashBluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/ucatalogueclash.bsky.socialDiscord: https://discord.gg/mz9ymTwSSE

Kev's in Calgary airport upsetting the Cowboys on his way back from Florida so Corey came up with a fiendishly brilliant special format that we could record in situ so we don't have to miss a week. We're not telling you which songs we're covering though, so you'll have to wait to find out! Suffice to say, we're revisiting seasons one and two... So will Corey make Kev listen to St. Anger and will the podcast finally cover Supper's Ready???The only way to find out is to turn on, tune in, and bury me when I'm gone!Songs covered in this episode....Don't forget to follow us on social media and leave us a rating/review if you're enjoying the show!Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/UltimateCatalogueClashBluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/ucatalogueclash.bsky.socialDiscord: https://discord.gg/mz9ymTwSSE

We're off to Victorian England to talk about one the top ten biggest selling prog rock albums of all time. We have Martians, artillery, heat rays, and.... disco? Kev grew up with this album and has most of it indelibly imprinted on his brain. Will he be able to set aside his nostalgic love for the album? Will Corey be on board with an album that doesn't feature a whole lot of singing and instead lots of dialogue spoken by a charismatic Welshman? And will the Martians win???The only way to find out is to turn on, tune in, and ....... ULLLLAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!Songs covered in this episode: "The Eve of the War", "Horsell Common and the Heat Ray", "The Artilleryman and the Fighting Machine", "Forever Autumn", "Thunder Child", "The Red Weed (Part 1)", "The Spirit of Man", "The Red Weed (Part 2)", "The Artilleryman Returns", "Brave New World", "Dead London", "Epilogue (Part 1)", "Epilogue (Part 2) (NASA)"Don't forget to follow us on social media and leave us a rating/review if you're enjoying the show!Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/UltimateCatalogueClashBluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/ucatalogueclash.bsky.socialDiscord: https://discord.gg/mz9ymTwSSE

Corey's running for Sheriff in Weyburn, the Crowes are channling Zep, Aeorsmith, and maybe a soupçon of Cinderella? We cogitate on why in the name of green shit the Crowes front loaded the album with slower songs and left so much fire on Side B! But, will Kev dig the Bob Marley cover that closes the album, and will Corey be on board with the longer songs? Most importantly, will either of these knuckleheads figure out how to do this season's game properly?The only way to find out is to turn on, tune in, and make my haze blow away!Songs covered in this episode: "Hotel Illness", "Black Moon Creeping", "No Speak No Slave", "My Morning Song", "Time Will Tell"Don't forget to follow us on social media and leave us a rating/review if you're enjoying the show!Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/UltimateCatalogueClashBluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/ucatalogueclash.bsky.socialDiscord: https://discord.gg/mz9ymTwSSE

Popular opinion amongst Crowes fans is that this is their finest work. Recorded in 8 off the back of a monster tour in support of Shake Your Money Maker, this is the album that most fans consider to be the defining sound of the band. So will Corey focus in on this creative shift or will he instead take us down the path of pyschopathic avicidal femme fatales? Will Kev be on board with Remedy now that he's had a chance to sit with the song a little longer, and are there any cheeses that you've been particulalry enjoying lately?The only way to find out is to turn on, tune in, and spill your secrets on me!Songs covered in this episode: "Sting Me", "Remedy", "Thorn in My Pride", "Bad Luck Blue Eyes Goodbye", "Sometimes Salvation"Don't forget to follow us on social media and leave us a rating/review if you're enjoying the show!Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/UltimateCatalogueClashTwitter: https://twitter.com/UCatalogueClashBluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/ucatalogueclash.bsky.socialDiscord: https://discord.gg/mz9ymTwSSE
