Saddle up as we journey through time and genre. This episode quickly became about sharing your voice in a more vocal way and, as we always do here on Universal Harmony, with underpinnings of togetherness. We are, after all, all one and the same.

We are visited by Kerry Buchanan, Auckland record retail stalwart, writer, and local legend. We cover topics such as Auckland record stores, how corrupt the charts were (and why that sometimes was no bad thing), local clubs, the six o'clock swill, the Superbad column in the Real Groove magazine, and how sourcing music has changed since the 80's. We also pay tribute to Dr. John, RIP.
Classic Neil to start then some nice grungy blues from P and a bit of a stroll through Texas. The beautifully named midnight cat meeting amongst the brand new tunes with Hank Topless and Slim Stone. An interview with Glen Moffat about the Aotearoa Country Music Timeline now up on audioculture.co.nz and some NZ tunes to acknowledge this and plenty more.
Fun show tonight with some Skynyrd ! But before that Kirsten interviews Jimmie Dale Gilmore ahead of his Auckland show with Butch Hancock, I play some brand new tunes from Tamaki Makaurau's Louisa Nicklin & Kathy Bates Motel, that gorgeous Strokes cover by Julia Jacklin, recorded live at Laneway and heaps more.
