Al Kendall's Al-bum Sides
A podcast to accompany the radio show/YouTube channel/Spotify profile "Al Kendall's Al-bum Sides" where I put together a collection of songs that are connected in some way & would make up a terrific side of a vinyl record if anyone had ever been cool enough to put them together & release it as such. Lots of interesting trivia and stories behind the music you love.
