Episode 526 - Top Ten Title Tracks Part 2 w/Ryan Blake
August 22, 2022 00:00 - 1 hour - 69.9 MBTop Ten Title Tracks is such the least brainy of all the no-brainer topics, it's a wonder it took us 11 years to consider it. The Old Boy Himself, the beloved Ryan Blake is back for part 2 of our ridiculous conversation and sublime playlist. As we know, title tracks have an added weight of importance and epicness, because we know the bands and artists behind these songs thought enough of them that they decided to name the album the same. Only the best of the absolute best qualify! ...
Episode 525 - Top Ten Title Tracks Part 1 w/Ryan Blake
August 15, 2022 00:00 - 1 hour - 71.1 MBIt doesn't take a rocket surgeon to figure out this topic. Top Ten Title Tracks is about as basic as you can get, but still a fascinating topic featuring songs that belong in the musical stratosphere. We're talking the cream of the crop, people. When a great artist or band decides to name an album after a song on that album, you know it's best of the best material every time. The Old Boy Himself Ryan Blake returns for another go-at-it in SS Blakey Studios, deep in the heart of Long ...

Our returning champion is none other than the marvelous Adam Sears of progressive rock wizards Lobate Scarp, back on the pod to carp about their latest album You Have It All, which was 10 years in the making. Adam and I finish up our list of those albums that got delayed from your earholes for any number of reasons. Thankfully for each of these, it was worth the wait. If you...
Episode 523 - Top Ten Great Albums We Had To Wait A Long Time For Part 1 w/Adam Sears
August 01, 2022 00:00 - 1 hour - 82.6 MBSometimes our favorite bands and artists take longer than we want to release a piece of music due to various circumstances or obstacles. When these albums finally see the light of day it's a beautiful thing, especially when it becomes clear that all the hard work and time was actually worth the wait. Speaking of waiting, our special guest Adam Sears hasn't been on the pod in years and we hadn't seen him in years, but Top Ten Great Albums We Had To Wait A Long Time For was absolutely...

July 18, 2022 11:00 - 57 minutes - 65.3 MBMany moons ago our special guest Frank Nicotero was the host of a wonderful show called Street Smarts. In honor of this very important part of Mr. Nicotero's resume, we've thrown together a simple but fun concept. "Street" Songs are songs that have the word "street" or "streets" in the title. Everybody got that? Good. In all seriousness this was a load of fun and we always enjoy when Frank joins the pod. We hope you dig this lighthearted romp and our temporary obsession with one wor...

July 11, 2022 00:00 - 1 hour - 94.5 MBOk maybe we are bragging a little.

Episode 515 - Top Ten Rock N Roll Conspiracy Theories Part 2 w/Mark Parsons
June 06, 2022 00:00 - 1 hour - 105 MBOnce you get Mark Parsons going, it's hard to slow him down, especially when talking about conspiracy theories, secret societies, urban legends, old wives' tales, hedonism and the history of rock n roll. We thank Mark profusely for bringing his A-game to All Time Top Ten and hope you enjoy Part 2 of Top Ten Rock N Roll Conspiracy Theories. The stories and playlist are truly legendary.

May 30, 2022 00:00 - 1 hour - 77.4 MB5 minutes in to Top Ten Rock N Roll Conspiracy Theories you'll understand why we reached out to our good friend Mark Parsons to co-host. Mark is an interesting cat and his unique brain and knowledge of great music make him the perfect guest for this sprawling, global-elite-power shattering episode. Things got so out of hand that we had to split this episode into 2 parts because the alternative would be to cut out some of the conversation and that simply wasn't going to happen. We ha...
Episode 513 - Top Ten Five-Year Spans In Music w/Rick Torres
May 23, 2022 00:00 - 1 hour - 115 MBOn occasion we like to don our historian hats on this here podcast. The timeline of great music is of major importance to us music nerds, and charting the history of rock, pop, soul, jazz, and everything else music is one of our favorite go-to subjects. In that spirit, the great Rick Torres was kind enough to grace us with his boisterous presence for a podcast about spans. Five-year spans to be exact. What were the most consequential, the most revolutionary, and the best five-year s...
Episode 512 - Top Ten Bands & Artists That Could Hang With The Beatles In Their Heyday w/Chris Price
May 16, 2022 00:00 - 1 hour - 124 MBThe concept is simple enough. From the years 1963-1970, The Beatles released their incredible discography, a body of work unmatched in scope of influence, creativity, quality AND quantity that set them apart from just about everyone in the music world. However, during this same period of time, other bands and artists were right there with the Fab Four in terms of legendary status, cultural impact and most importantly creation of incredible music. Call them contemporaries, peers, riv...
Episode 511 - Top Ten Greatest Bands Of The 21st Century w/DJ Hostettler & Dixie Jacobs of Body Futures
May 09, 2022 00:00 - 1 hour - 134 MBThere are things in life that are just common knowledge. The Pope does his thing in the woods, 2+2=4, band names are impossibly hard and all the good ones have been taken. Since 2000, there have been approximately 5 million new bands formed. Common knowledge tells us that 99% of their names are crap. Thankfully ATTT has some friends who know a thing or two about what constitutes a great band name. DJ Hostettler and Dixie Jacobs of the band Body Futures join ATTT to count down the be...

Episode 510 - Top Ten Prince Albums w/Oscar Jordan
May 02, 2022 00:00 - 2 hours - 145 MBTo sort through the dozens upon dozens of amazing albums released by Prince is a labor of love. In his lifetime, Prince released 42 studio albums, with probably just as many in the vaults waiting to be discovered by the world. In the dictionary, the word "prolific" should have a picture of his unpronounceable symbol next to it. You could also place that iconic symbol next to the words "genius" and "music". In his all-too-short time on earth, Prince Rogers Nelson gave us everything h...
Episode 509 - Top Ten Songs With Unexpectedly Badass Guitar Solos w/David Daskal
April 25, 2022 00:00 - 1 hour - 99.1 MBIn a normal David Daskal episode, the rule of thumb is to expect the unexpected. However, once in an unexpected while there's a Double David Daskal episode. When this happens not only is David Daskal's mere presence indicative of unexpectedness, but in this case the unexpectedness goes above and beyond. That's what to expect when listening to Top Ten Songs With Unexpectedly Badass Guitar Solos. Do you really expect David Daskal to take a topic like this and give you the expected son...

April 18, 2022 00:00 - 1 hour - 132 MBThe experts have taken a look and it appears to be a fact. The sounds of modern life can best be expressed by music. It's just science, people. Music is the one constant in our everyday lives. Everywhere we go we hear the latest earworm or a brand new hit from the biggest and best artists of our time. There are certain musical geniuses that know exactly how to get the best out of those bands and artists, and they are showcased in this very special episode of ATTT. The Numbers Girl's...
Episode 507 - Top Ten Non-Country Bands & Artists From Nashville w/The HawtThorns
April 11, 2022 00:00 - 1 hour - 113 MBAs we all know, Nashville is the world hub for both kinds of music - country & western. But there's also a lot going on in that fair city that's outside the C&W realm. Lots of incredibly talented and stylistically diverse musicians and songwriters find themselves in Nashville, and this week's special guests are two of them. Fairly recent Nashville transplants KP & Johnny Hawthorn of the duo The HawtThorns were kind enough to join ATTT for an outing on GoodList Patio where the two of...
Episode 506 - Top Ten Inexplicably Odd Covers w/Joe Lavelle
April 04, 2022 00:00 - 1 hour - 128 MBWho better to have a discussion about inexplicable musical oddities than ATTT's resident oddity (meant in the most flattering way possible), Joe Lavelle? Joe was kind enough to come back for a de facto sequel to our groundbreaking 2015 episode, Top Ten Inexplicably Odd Songs, which tested the boundaries of what music is and should be. This episode is no different, featuring songs with an astoundingly wide range of style and extremely odd levels of inexplicability. Check out this p...

Episode 504: Episode 504 - Top Ten Music Documentaries Part 1 w/Maurice Bursztynski
March 21, 2022 00:00 - 1 hour - 83.5 MBThe world of music documentaries is one filled with riches. Other than simply listening to it, there's no better way to absorb the power and importance of music and its ability to change the world. There's a reason why Decline Of Western Civilization, Penelope Spheeris' anthropologic look at the underground hardcore punk scene in late 70s/early 80s LA, was selected by the Library Of Congress for preservation in the United States National Film Registry, being deemed "culturally, hist...

Not long ago I announced that if the ATTT Patreon Club reached 30 members, we would celebrate by sharing one of our usually exclusive bonus episodes with everyone. Well we have achieved this modest goal with some new members (welcome and thank you!) and so here's a fun one we did back in July of 2021. $10 tier member George Parker had just reached 1 year at that level, and for his troubles he got to co-host the show, with a topic picked by the rest of the Patreon gang. ...
Episode 503 - Top Ten Underrated Drummers w/Sam Cunningham
March 07, 2022 00:00 - 1 hour - 127 MBMaking our way through the essential instruments of rock n roll, ATTT is once again poring over another Rolling Stone list - this time it's their 100 Greatest Drummers list - and looking for drummers that don't get the recognition they deserve. To be fair, there isn't a drummer in existence that gets the proper respect they deserve, and so we do our part by counting down the 10 Greatest Underrated Drummers. For this assignment we were lucky enough to land the elusive but charming dr...

The Old Boy Himself Ryan Blake is back for another V-Day episode, this time branching out to new topics after retiring our usual Love Songs series after 10 years. We take a hard left turn with these songs, as they approach the subject of love from a ...
Episode 499: Episode 499 - Top Ten Songs That Are (Almost) Too Epic w/Matt Dinan & Tony Ross
February 07, 2022 00:00 - 2 hours - 166 MBThere are songs out there in the rock, pop and soul canon that test the very limits of epicness. This week it's those that live right on the bleeding edge of going too far that interest us here in list land. Matt Dinan and Tony Ross help ATTT put together a playlist that you can spin from the mountaintops. Yes Top Ten Songs That Are (Almost) Too Epic runs long but that goes with the territory. For a truly (almost) too epic song, bands and artists need to demonstrate their willingnes...
Episode 498: Episode 498 - Top Ten Influential Bands & Artists Of The 80s Volume 1 w/Alex Dubovoy
January 31, 2022 20:00 - 1 hour - 121 MBMusic of the 80s can best be described with one word - adventurous. Music was fast becoming something more than the sum of its parts. MTV and music video was changing what constitutes a rock star in the modern era. Synthesizers and overdriven gated drum sounds pounded listeners' ears into submission and the artists and bands on the cutting edge were just as fascinating to watch as they were to listen to. It's no surprise that many of them went on to have a lasting impact on popular ...

ATTT is proud to welcome one of the family, the great Helene Eisen, soaking up the rays in Florida. Yes two people from Florida and California can have opinions on winter, as we both put in several decades of frigid punishment, and we know the joy and pain involved in those special 3 months every year. Top Ten ...
Episode 496: Episode 496 - Top Ten Rock Stars With Advanced Degrees w/Nick Baker
January 17, 2022 00:00 - 1 hour - 118 MBWe here at ATTT have all the respect in the world for smart people. People that put in the resources, hard work and time to get an advanced degree deserve all the good they get in the world. When we say 'advanced degree' we mean a Master's or higher. Using these parameters yielded precious few rockers that qualify, no matter what genre they're in. To be a rock star with an advanced degree is a serious rarity, and these are truly special and awesome individuals. Add to the list one D...
Episode 495: Episode 495 - Top Ten Music Destinations Of The 90s w/Ian MacKinnon
January 10, 2022 00:00 - 1 hour - 124 MBWe feel sorry for you if you missed it. The 90s were a time of artistic expression and exploration. Punk taught Generation X that they could do anything, and they did when given the chance in the 90s. Beginning with the musical explosion coming out of Seattle, bands and scenes popped up all over, and record labels went "cool hunting", looking high and low (and spending exorbitant amounts of money) searching for the next musical haven. Luckily for us there were a bunch of them percol...

Episode 492: Episode 492 - Top Ten Song Titles We Want The Numbers Girl To Say w/Joe Lavelle
December 20, 2021 00:00 - 1 hour - 118 MBWe absolutely adore the Numbers Girl around these parts. Her seemingly effortless way of announcing each pick warms the soul, and we couldn't possibly do the show without her. The good news we just signed her to another 10 year contract and as a thank you for 10 years of service, we are dedicating this special episode to The Queen Of The Count. Joe Lavelle's brain is a funny place and it came up with this ludicrous topic, and we figured it would be a fitting way to wrap up season 10...

A master crooner will put you in your feelings whether you want them to or not. Employing melancholy, sadness, wry wit, humor, or unabashed joy, these singers can make your heart melt. When ATTT decided to enter the world of the crooner, we chose to take a hard left turn the moment we got there. What we found was all of the nuance and class ...

November 29, 2021 00:00 - 1 hour - 121 MBIt's been a long time coming, but we did it. We outlasted Seinfeld by a year! ATTT turns 10 years old this week, and to celebrate we've invited a bunch of our beloved regulars - Joe Lavelle, Shannon Hurley, Dustin Prince and the Old Boy Himself Ryan Blake - to help us dig through the past decade's worth of episodes and temporarily "un-retire" those songs that have passed the 5 spin threshold. In rock n roll nobody ever really retires. Even after they're in the cold hard ground, our ...

November 08, 2021 00:00 - 1 hour - 128 MBLook out! This week we're letting our freak flag fly high on ATTT. We're going to allow ourselves to become true artists and we will refuse to be defined. Anyone tries to define us this week will have another thing coming. Just like us, the bands and artists featured on this week's list are tough to define and have been called by lots of names. By far the laziest name applied to these freewheeling artists is the dreaded "eclectic". Well we're not going to insult their artistry by pi...
Episode 485: Episode 485 - Top Ten Songs About Reunions w/Elizabeth Eisen
November 01, 2021 00:00 - 1 hour - 95.1 MBATTT wraps up our 3 week road trip with an honest to goodness family reunion. We finally made it out to the midwest after more than 2 years away, and what they say about absence and the heart growing fonder couldn't be more accurate. We were delighted to bring back the queen mother Elizabeth Eisen for an episode about time away and getting back together with loved ones. Fair warning, Top Ten Songs About Reunions just might tug at your heartstrings a bit, but we could all use the sen...

October 25, 2021 00:00 - 1 hour - 137 MBBehold! The musical scientists that run ATTT have discovered the only morally acceptable way for two bespectacled middle-aged white guys to talk about their favorite reggae songs on a podcast. The Old Boy Himself Ryan Blake may not be a bonafide reggae artist, but he has been a serious and authentic reggae fan for decades. His bright idea is to focus on a curious and surprisingly fruitful subgenre in the reggae universe - reggae songs by non-reggae artists. The songs featured in thi...
