Who Is The Greatest Singer of All-Time? (part 2)

Author: Rich Price and Clint Bierman June 11, 2021 Duration: 1:05:49
One episode to settle on the greatest singer of all-time was crazy. But two...that sounds about right. In part 2, Rich and Clint jump back into this debate, and the discussion includes Stevie Wonder, Frank Sinatra, Steve Perry, Joni Mitchell, Sting and many more. The guys talk to Dave Lory, manager of the late great Jeff Buckley and who also worked with legends like Gregg Allman and Robert Plant. Also joining as special guest, Rich's sister Elizabeth, dropping knowledge about how people in the Arab world might answer this question. And making a return to the show, Tony-winner Kelli O'Hara and Rich's bandmate in The Sweet Remains, Greg Naughton. The Age Old Question is part of Pantheon Podcasts. Learn more about your ad choices.

Ever found yourself in a late-night argument about whether a guitar solo was technically brilliant or just self-indulgent, or if a beloved classic is actually overrated? You're not alone. The Age Old Question: A Podcast for Music Fans lives in those wonderfully contentious spaces. Hosts Rich Price and Clint Bierman, with a mix of genuine curiosity and good-natured humor, dive into the debates that music lovers have had for decades, the kind that never seem to get a definitive answer. They don't just rehash old opinions; they bring in friends, musicians, and genuine experts to add depth, history, and sometimes a completely unexpected perspective to the conversation. Each episode of this podcast feels like joining a smart, funny conversation among friends who are as passionate about the nuances of a chord progression as they are about the cultural impact of a band. It’s for anyone who’s ever passionately defended a genre, questioned a lyric, or wondered why a particular artist divides a room. Listen for thoughtful analysis, plenty of laughs, and the joyful pursuit of settling music's great mysteries, even if just for the length of an episode. This is part of the Pantheon Podcasts network.
