    Festive Songs for Festive People
    2023/12/24

    Dive into the festive fray with Tam and Jim in this week’s episode of Backing Tracks, where we unravel the twisted tinsel of Christmas songs from the 1940s to now. We begin in the 1940s, home to those conveniently forgotten holiday tunes that had more spirit than Santa’s workshop. Swinging into the 1950s, where Christmas songs had more swing than a mistletoe party, we explore the exuberant jingles that once rocked around Christmas trees. Fast forward to the 1970s, and it’s a headbanging wonderland with Christmas tunes that swapped jingle bells for heavy rock riffs – think Santa in leather pants. The 1990s brought us holiday melancholy wrapped in a festive bow, while the 2000s onwards have been a mixed bag of musical stockings, from whispery ballads to pop jingles. This episode is decked with the trademark blend of original musical interludes, humour, and a hefty dose of seasonal sarcasm. So, grab your eggnog and prepare for a sleigh ride through the most bizarre Christmas tunes in history.

    A Tribute to the Tributes
    2023/12/12

    In this this week's episode of "Backing Tracks", Tam and Jim take a stroll down the memory lane of Tribute Acts. It's the world where almost being someone famous counts, and our hosts are no strangers to it. Tam recounts his illustrious stint in an Elvis tribute act, where he left no rhinestone unturned. Meanwhile, Jim faces a musical existential crisis, realising that his inner Barry White has been crooning for release – brace yourself for some deep, soulful laughs. With musical interludes that are as 'original' as a corporate gig, this episode is an ode to all the almost-weres and could-have-beens. Join us for a ride through the uncanny valley of music where imitation is not just flattery, it's downright ridiculous. If you've ever wondered what the bargain bin of musical fame looks like, you're in the right place.
