Description
Hello Friends, and welcome to Mixology for 2023! We're starting the year off a little differently, with a wonderful conversation I had recently with Craig Smith. Best known for his work on the Monkees Mixography website and the upcoming Mixing Links: The Monkees on Disc book, Craig has worked with his partner Derek Miner to create the most comprehensive guide to the 900+ unique mixes in the Monkees US discography, in a resource used by everyone from Andrew Sandoval to this very podcast!
Less of an interview and more of a conversation between friends, Craig and I took this opportunity to chat about our love for all things mix difference, from our very different introductions to the world, to how this affects the way we listen to and interact with music today. Of course, we also dig into the history of the Monkees Mixography website and it's origins, and how through a reboot gave life to the concept that became Mixing Links: The Monkees on Disc, as well as an update on the current state of the book itself. And of course, The Beatles come into it. So, don't be feeling Nine Times Blue, come join us in our Conversations!
And if that wasn't enough, I joined Craig over at the Pods and Sods Network for a very special Monkees episode of Two Pick Ten, which you can listen to now at https://podsodcast.com/
Happy Listening,
Frederick
