Vinyl Podcast

From mid-December of 2004 until the early summer of 2005 (and sporadically for a month or two after), I produced the Vinyl Podcast, a show dedicated to out-of-print music. Each show consisted of a single song, recorded from vinyl in my personal collection, along with some brief background and commentary. I was fairly proud of it. Time constraints and the questionable legality of podcasting major-label music forced me to abandon the project, but I’ve retained a couple of episodes here.

For the time being, the Vinyl Podcast site lives on at vinylpodcast.com, but the show links will cease to work as LibSyn clears their archive, and the layout is a little screwy thanks to a botched WordPress upgrade.

    Miss the podcast. Still listen to my vinyl and many of my old euro imports never made it to CD.

    Sorry the goodness had to end. You did a good job with it.

    Cody,

    Should have posted this comment here; feel free to delete the one on the IA post.

    I’m only now reading the obituary at the old site, but even though I’m late to the ceremony I want you to know that I’m still in mourning.

    You did a great job with everything in your show: the commentary was smart, pithy, and to the point; the music was wonderful; and the technical stuff (levels, etc.) was always just right. I did my bit to help immortalize you by giving you a shout-out in my article for EDUCAUSE Review called “There’s Something In The Air: Podcasting In Education,” complete with that great slogan, “Fair Use Of Forgotten Music.”

    Even if some lawyer would take up your cause pro bono, you’d still always be on the threshold of a world of hurt. I completely understand your reasons for quitting the show. But it was magic, my friend, while it lasted, and I’ll never forget it. I too have a nearly complete set. I too got into podcasting in part because of your example.

    You did a great thing, Cody. Best of luck with the master’s, and rock on.
