Back before the internet and cable TV, before jobs and kids, before ipods and iphones, and especially before iTunes, this funny thing used to happen. People used to actually go to the record store at midnight to be among the first to buy a new album by their favorite artist. Then you’d walk home, maybe with a friend (if you were lucky, you were with a friend) and the two of you would open the record and put it on. Together, you would just sit there and listen. Afterwards, you would talk about what you just heard, and then maybe start it again.
Record Time is a podcast that attempts to reconnect you to the joy of listening to your favorite music. A love song to music and the art of the album, each episode encourages you to turn off the world and turn on a record, give it your full attention and truly discover it again. We pair each record with an appropriate adult beverage. Partially because that was what we wished we could have done back in the day, and partially to help you savor the act of blocking out the noise of the world and focusing on the power of music to trigger nostalgia, new insights, and joy.
Your hosts are Pete & Tim, music lovers, performers and long-time friends, who have assembled a carefully crafted playlist of great listening experiences. We spend each episode savoring the immediate pleasures of a record, and dig deep to uncover its secrets. We end each episode performing a cover of a song from the record. Spanning genres, decades and styles, Record Time is here to encourage you to press pause on your distractions and press play on the magic of great music. New episodes every other week.
