The Velvet Underground and Nico - The Velvet Underground (Review)
07/20/22 • 53 min
The season finale of Record Roulette has a very special guest - the creator of VH1 Storytellers, Michael A. Simon.
He's a perfect fit for this episode, too, because we're talking about The Velvet Underground's debut album, The Velvet Underground and Nico, which comes in at #23 on the Rolling Stone 500 Greatest Albums list.
What does a New Yorker who worked with Lou Reed on multiple occasions think of the quintessential 1960s New York album? You won't be surprised. But, the real question is whether the three bumpkins from north of the border felt the same way. Tune in for stories about David Bowie, the power of nostalgia, a "One Bad Opinion" and more.

Fly - The Chicks (Review)
What happens when three dummies talk about one of the best-selling and most-controversial music groups in 21st century America? Listen to find out.
We're talking about Fly, the diamond-certified second studio album from The Chicks, which hits the Rolling Stone 500 Greatest Albums list at #224.
There's so much to talk about with this album. First, we have no idea what Sonya and Nathan think of country music - they weren't on the show last time we tackled the genre with Dolly Parton's Coat of Many Colors. Are either of them anything-but-country music fans? If so, will this be an offensive and horrible episode that country fans are bound to hate? Do country fans still like The Chicks? Does this album from The Chicks have the depth and heft to earn its way onto the list? Is it even the right album from The Chicks?
