Summary

Welcome to the first ever Liner Notes edition of the Great Albums podcast, a semi-monthly version of the show where Bill and Brian get to relax a little, read some listener emails, make corrections, and possibly chat about some new topics. In this episode we read some listener emails about loving Boston as a kid, giving the podcast a second chance, some top songs of 2017, guests helping the podcast get some context, and some cool local bands from other parts of the world. Check these out:

1:13.3

Now, I'm not saying there's never going to be a bonus song Thursday again if Brian and I

1:17.4

feel like sitting down and talking about a song that is related, at least tangentially,

Like, we would spend like 10 minutes talking about the song, and then we'd spend like 20
