It was my privilege to host the legendary Alan Cross in Episode 12, voice of that iconic Canadian music doc we’ve all listened to at some point in our lives – The Ongoing History of New Music.

As Alan and I talk about the songs that make his skin vibrate, he tells some incredible stories about the things he touched in Abbey Road Studios, how he perplexed Paul McCartney, and his hilarious discussion with Pete Townsend about the instrumentation in “Won’t Get Fooled Again”.

And after we get through his list, we geek out over David Bowie.

 

Cross’ playlist:

The Who – Won’t Get Fooled Again

Peter Gabriel – Secret World (extended live version)

Oasis – Rock and Roll Star

Stone Roses – I Am The Resurrection

Paul McCartney and Wings – Live and Let Die

The Rolling Stones – Gimme Shelter
