On this episode, we celebrate the life and legacy of Soundgarden front man Chris Cornell through the band’s “The Day I Tried to Live,” then talk all things Jay-Z as we explore Hova’s modern classic “99 Problems” off The Black Album.

Music has always been pivotal to great films and iconic film moments. In this latest theme episode, we talk some of our favorites.

For our one year anniversary of Flat Sharp, we take a trip down memory lane and revisit two of our favorite artists from previous episodes. This time around we dig into an ominously familiar song from Stevie’s classic period, and celebrate a landmark in American music history by zooming in on a lesser known song from The Band’s debut album.

 

On our latest show, we pay tribute to two late, great artists who came to define the culture and music of the 1970s and 1980s. Join us as we talk about Bowie’s collage of domestic life that is “Life on Mars?” and George Michael’s snub to conformity in “Freedom ’90.”

On this episode, special guest Reuben Jackson joins us to talk about Stevie Wonder’s “As,” one of the maestro’s masterpieces from his 1976 double-album Songs in the Key of Life.
