The Story Behind: Counting Crows - August and Everything After, Ep. 268

Musicians recount the strange and unexpected story behind the making of your favorite albums.  Counting Crows were a Bay Area band that made a demo tape and started a bidding war overnight. Allan, Phil, Marty, and Rob get together to discuss the whiny 90s, white guys with dreadlocks, and making your hit songs unrecognizable in the live show. Join the comment thread NOW available on our free Patreon to continue the conversation about this episode and get early access to the weekly show 100% ad free, plus 60+ bonus shows like Song Battle and Guilty Pleasureshttps://www.patreon.com/1001AlbumComplaintsJoin our Mailing List here: https://linktr.ee/1001albumcomplaintsEmail us your complaints (or questions / comments) at 1001AlbumComplaints@gmail.comListen to our episode companion playlist (compilation of the songs we referenced on this episode) here:https://open.spotify.com/playlist/4nfbjCGwsmljDeJb9H9rLA?si=bf5f04baafa94515Listen to August and Everything After here:https://open.spotify.com/album/4nKfZbCALT9H9LfedtDwnZ?si=28AJavQzRVWDlCRM8EmF6gAnd our international playlists continue to grow:Thai, German, Sweden  1, 2, & 3, Italian, Australian,  Belgium 1 & 2Intro music: When the Walls Fell by The Beverly CrushersOutro music: After the Afterlife by MEGAFollow our Spotify Playlist of music produced directly by us.
