The Lesson from the Film on Anvil

Cheers! – Looking Ahead to 2026 Sound to Savor

Send us a textJoin me for the last episode of 2025, as I enjoy a maple old fashioned. I talk Questlove's new podcast, along with new music from gwendolyn, De La Soul, and Daphni. Also, a deluxe album from the xx, and the rerelease of The Beatles' "Anthology." Lastly, I look at 2026 – upcoming music events, having guests back on here, and a new season of new music and artists. Cheers, one last time this year!

Happy birthday, Linda Ronstadt! Here are five cuts I mention on the podcast, plus one bonus.

Bonus track: This is her cover of Elvis Costello’s ‘Alison,’ which he has said was important for him, since he made money from her success with it. Also, it’s noteworthy for featuring David Sanborn on sax, who passed away earlier this year. Aside from his jazz work, he’s also known for playing sax with David Bowie on “Young Americans.”

What about this group Anvil?

Here’s the trailer for the film I discuss on this week’s episode.
