Episode 625 - Top Ten Songs We Wish Would Go Viral Part 1 w/Steve Krolikowski of Datamaps
July 15, 2024 00:00 - 1 hour - 87.4 MBWhether from a featured placement in a commercial, tv show, movie, or a Tik Tok, songs are going viral all the time and we want to know how and why. How does one tap into this seemingly invisible force that suddenly has everyone loving Fleetwood Mac's "Dreams" or Kate Bush's "Running Up That Hill"? It's a truly 21st Century cultural phenomenon that always makes us perk up and take notice of some piece of music we may not have ever thought of otherwise. Enter our good friend and band...
Episode 624 - Classic Albums Worst To First : Revolver Part 2 w/Shannon Hurley, Marina V & NIck Baker
July 08, 2024 00:00 - 1 hour - 83.7 MBWe here at ATTT HQ hope you aren't cooking up some hate mail for us in the wake of what happened in Classic Albums Worst To First : Revolver Part 1. Feelings were definitely hurt and toes were stepped on. However, we've decided that since we're now highlighting the best of the best in Part 2, no one shall be allowed to be butthurt by the Worst To First placements of the 7 songs making up the top half of our list. This is rarified air, to be in the top half of the songs on The Beatle...
Episode 623 - Classic Albums Worst To First : Revolver Part 1 w/Shannon Hurley, Marina V & Nick Baker
July 01, 2024 00:00 - 1 hour - 88.3 MBSome call Revolver The Beatles at their peak, we know it at the very least as The Beatles at the beginning of their prime, when their music began to transcend all of pop culture, leaving the mop top era in the dust. 1966 was a banner year for music and of course the Fab Four were right there in the thick of it, innovating, expanding and creating some of the greatest music ever made. To celebrate this remarkable time, we thought it wise to put Revolver through the test track by track...
Episode 622 - Top Ten Cowbell Songs Part 2 w/Dustin Prince
June 24, 2024 00:00 - 50 minutes - 58.4 MBIf you always think of the cowbell as some frivolous thing to be mocked by Will Ferrell, you need to listen to more music. This mighty percussion instrument is amazingly versatile! It can anchor a hard rock beat, it can spice up a latin jazz standard, and it can turn an ordinary groove into an all time party anthem. The fabulous cowbell is more than worthy to have it's own episode, and we couldn't think of anyone we'd rather have guesting on this one. The always affable Dustin Princ...
Episode 621 - Top Ten Cowbell Songs Part 1 w/Dustin Prince
June 17, 2024 00:00 - 49 minutes - 56.8 MBThe cowbell is so much more than some silly sketch comedy bit. The cowbell is a must for any self-respecting drummer to own, partly because it's so versatile. Cowbells can be found in rock, jazz, latin jazz, funk, disco, hard rock and any other kind of music where people want to hear that delightful clang. Our good friend Dustin is indeed a self-respecting drummer, and he was kind enough to join the pod for one of those obvious but awesome topics we can't stay away from - Top Ten Co...

Episode 619 - Top Ten Songs From Video Games Part 1 w/Ryan, Jasper & Elliott Blake
June 03, 2024 00:00 - 1 hour - 72.8 MBFrom the earliest 8-bit micro masterpieces of back in the day, to the full-blown orchestral epics that provide the soundtrack to the mind-blowing games of today, the music of video games is a wellspring of creativity, imagination and musical adventurousness. Your humble host has not been a "gamer" for many a decade but thankfully the younger generations are keeping on the cutting edge of this world, and bringing their parents along for the ride. Here is where ATTT comes in, with our...

May 20, 2024 00:00 - 1 hour - 71.3 MBAll hail the undisputed King Of Horror! Through his dozens of novels and films, Stephen King has been scaring the pants off of the world for 6 decades, and he's still coming up with more tales of the macabre and terrible. His works are always connected to music, and in many ways music plays a major part of the dread of his words. To celebrate this concept, we're paying tribute with our 10 favorite Songs For Stephen King. Mr. Halloween Himself Matt Dinan & the Queen Of Scream Julia M...
Episode 616 - Top Ten Rock N Roll Davids Part 2 w/David Daskal
May 13, 2024 00:00 - 1 hour - 101 MBBeing born with the name David doesn't necessarily mean that you're destined for greatness, but it doesn't hurt your chances. The following artists featured in the top half of our esteemed list of Daves are the musical Daves we know, and we're so glad to know them.

Episode 615 - Top Ten Rock N Roll Davids Part 1 w/David Daskal
May 06, 2024 00:00 - 1 hour - 75.3 MBATTT loves our recurring guests and lord knows we couldn't and wouldn't do the show without them.

April 29, 2024 00:00 - 1 hour - 83.1 MBShout out to Eric Idle and the Pythons. They ask the important questions, such as... Why are we here? What's life all about?

We're back with picks 5-1 in our look at songs that address the things Sartre, Camus, and Nietzsche opined about. The topic - existence. If you missed Part 1 check it out here...
Episode 613 - Top Ten Existential Songs Volume 5 Part 1 w/Gabe Scalone
April 22, 2024 00:00 - 1 hour - 78.8 MB"I can always choose, but I ought to know that if I do not choose, I am still choosing. There is no human nature, since there is no god to conceive it. Existentialism's first move is to make every man aware of what he is and to make the full responsibility of his existence rest on him." - Jean-Paul Sartre 2024 is the perfect year to bring back this well-worn and well-loved topic of ours. Of course if we're talking existentialism and rock n roll, we need to bring back ATTT's very ow...
Episode 612 - Top Ten L.A. Punk Bands Part 2 w/Severo
April 15, 2024 00:00 - 1 hour - 72.8 MBIt's been called the most shocking American youth movement in history. When it stormed out of the gates in the 1970s, punk rock told the world that the way things are is unacceptable. The people that defined the scene spit in the face of conformity and the social order, and they did it with humor, irreverence and musical brutality. The punk scene in Los Angeles was (and still is) home to some of the most iconic personalities of the genre, and was led by bands that defined it as they...
Episode 611 - Top Ten L.A. Punk Bands Part 1 w/Severo
April 08, 2024 00:00 - 1 hour - 79.1 MBFor decades, the thriving punk scene in Los Angeles has pushed boundaries, invented entire subgenres out of whole cloth, and provided the sonic and visual blueprint for the rest of the world to follow. The LA punk scene has also been home to some of the most iconic bands in the history of the genre. It's a fascinating look through the decades, and one we're super stoked to get into. TOP TEN L.A. PUNK BANDS is a golden opportunity to introduce a new voice and personality to the ATTT ...

Episode 608 - Top Ten Autobiographical Songs Part 2 w/Jason Berk
March 18, 2024 00:00 - 1 hour - 87.2 MBConsidering most of our favorite rock stars live extraordinarily fascinating lives, you'd think there would be more of them writing songs about specific things they've experienced. In fact, there aren't that many but the songs we do have are cool little glimpses into the personal lives of our musical heroes. In TOP TEN AUTOBIOGRAPHICAL SONGS, the mighty Jason Berk joins to discuss and play our favorites from this exceedingly rare selection. Part 2 features picks 5-1. If you somehow...
Episode 607 - Top Ten Autobiographical Songs Part 1 w/Jason Berk
March 11, 2024 00:00 - 1 hour - 77.6 MBThere's nothing more fascinating than a good rock n roll origin story, especially when said rock n roll artist or band writes a song about that story. Then there are songs that tell stories of crazy things that happened to these artists and bands, and helped shape their rock n roll persona. ATTT's main mensch Jason Berk dropped by to help us count down our favorite AUTOBIOGRAPHICAL SONGS, those ditties that give a hint of how some of our favorite stars and bands came to be. Picks 10...
Episode 606 - Emergency Pod Volume 3 w/Joe Lavelle
March 04, 2024 00:00 - 1 hour - 108 MBFolks! There are some big goings-on in the ATTT universe these days. Thankfully we get by with a little help from people like our friend Joe Lavelle, who has graciously volunteered to help bring back a format we haven't used in a while but are excited to dust off for your listening pleasure. As we all know, the best podcasts never prepare anything and just wing it. Well in a roundabout way that's what we're up to around here. Emergency Pod turns All Time Top Ten into a "Who's Line I...
Episode 605 - Top Ten Solo One Hit Wonders Part 2 w/Jeff Axelrod
February 26, 2024 00:00 - 1 hour - 100 MBTime to step up on that high horse for a second. Ahem... there's a severe lack of bands these days, and in our sad estimation, the concept of the band has been devalued to the detriment of modern music. We know some of the biggest rock stars of all time from their bands, and while some band members have been able to make a go at it as solo artists, others... not as much. These are the most famous one hit wonders ever, but we're glad they at least had the one. Sir Jeff Axelrod, our e...
Episode 604 - Top Ten Solo One Hit Wonders Part 1 w/Jeff Axelrod
February 19, 2024 00:00 - 1 hour - 77.7 MBThere's real truth to the notion that being in a band is like being in a relationship, for better or for worse. For many of the greatest bands of all time, each member contributes to the chemistry that makes the band so great. Many times band members feel the need to go solo and even though they are rock stars when they're in their bands, as solo artists they are merely one hit wonders. This phenomenon sheds a light on the importance of band dynamics, and the possible limitations of...
Episode 603 - Top Ten Two Man Bands Part 2 w/Fernando Perdomo & Michael Collins of Broken Sound
February 12, 2024 00:00 - 1 hour - 93.5 MBAt a certain point during Top Ten Two Man Bands Part 1, the conversation with Fernando Perdomo and Michael Collins of the phenomenal two man band Broken Sound sorta went off the rails. Many of our favorite ATTT hangs have this feature as a selling point. The good news is in Part 2, we never ever got back on the rails. It's a rail-less pod, in the best possible way. We can't thank Fern and Michael enough for taking the time to jabber with us about our favorite Two Man Bands. Here in ...
Episode 602 - Top Ten Two Man Bands Part 1 w/Fernando Perdomo & Michael Collins of Broken Sound
February 05, 2024 00:00 - 1 hour - 80.8 MBBefore you get yourself in a tizzy over the title of this episode, try to imagine how lame it would be to call it "Top Ten Two Person Bands". No thanks. For our purposes here the word 'man' is a catch-all for everybody, and we certainly did live up to our inclusive credo. ATTT is delighted to welcome back the fabulous Fernando Perdomo and newcomer Michael Collins to the show to help promote their awesome new TWO MAN BAND called Broken Sound, and to chat about what it means to be a t...

January 22, 2024 00:00 - 1 hour - 75.3 MBThe word 'legendary' and the city of L.A. go hand in hand. Los Angeles is where the magic happens for so much of what the world loves, not just in movies and tv but certainly in music. In addition to some all time great homegrown bands, many of the finest studio musicians call this place home. Thousands of chart topping hits have been turned out in the iconic studios of the City Of Angels, and the cats featured in this week's episode played on dozens if not hundreds of them. ATTT is...

January 08, 2024 00:00 - 1 hour - 73 MBThere's nothing more LAME than when people say there's no good music being made today. It's a sure sign of laziness and a closed mind.

Giovanny Blanco, Shannon Hurley and David Daskal add some mirth to our chat about the best songs of the year., and when this playlist is complete, you won't need another.

Episode 596 - Top TWENTY Songs Of 2023 Part 1 w/Shannon Hurley, David Daskal & Giovanny Blanco
December 25, 2023 00:00 - 1 hour - 73.8 MBLord knows how we make it through another year. Actually ATTT knows how - MUSIC! Of the few bright spots in the year 2023, music was top of mind. This was the year of global superstars and young upstarts, a year of genre bending and legends securing their immortal mark in history. Contrary to the beliefs of those who don't listen, music is always evolving and these year-end episodes are a great way for us to take a good look around to see that there's still consciousness-altering, b...

November 06, 2023 00:00 - 1 hour - 86 MBWe firmly believe that David Bowie will be one of a select few artists from modern pop music that scholars and fans alike will be enjoying 100 years from now. Not only was he a prolific pioneer, he also, on dozens of occasions, took the music genre of his choosing to unimaginable heights by simply giving it the Bowie treatment. Every record he released was an event and a singular achievement, and he did it for nearly 50 years. The honorable Gabe Scalone returns to help us wrap up ou...
Episode 588 - Top Ten David Bowie Albums Part 1 w/Gabe Scalone
October 30, 2023 00:00 - 1 hour - 96.7 MBAs far as album artists that dominated the album era, the late great David Bowie is among the all-timers. From 1969 to 1980 he put out 13 albums, all of which had the critics blown away and audiences and the music listening public clamoring for more. And Bowie gave them more, continuing to put out mind-bending material all the way until his untimely death in 2016. Gabe Scalone is an ATTT favorite for many reasons, among them he tends to nerd out to the extreme, just like the best of...

October 02, 2023 00:00 - 55 minutes - 63.9 MBWe all know the basic premise of a guilty pleasure song. Some may deride the concept of hiding your affection for a particular tune from your hipster friends out of embarrassment or the desire to appear not uncool. It's a natural thing. It's also natural to get moved by a song that is considered by most to be silly or lame. Well hide your guilt no more! ATTT is here to help, with the aid of our good friend and excellent musician Bryan Meyers, who is on hand to present another volume...

The fabulous Maurice Bursztynski returns for a knock down drag out discussion about songs and song bridges. We also took little breaks in the middle of arguing to listen to some examples of sublime pop song craft in TOP TEN GREAT BRIDGES Part 2.
