This a new brand-new Podcast series called “Sixteen in ’75.” This year, a lot of Channels are celebrating albums turning 50, and that includes an incredible batch from 1975. But for me, there’s a personal twist—1975 was the year I turned 16 and left school to start my first job. It was a tough time of transitions, factory dust, and figuring out who I was. This series is all about the albums that got me through it.Please Support Now Spinning MagazineBecome a Patron (free trial -cancel anytime) Thank you everyone for being part of my journey and supporting me.
