Ep. 5: Dad Jazz with Ross Lahlum

Reek of Podrefaction

Hi, and welcome! Reek of Podrefaction is an audio journey through Laura and Andrew's deep affection for extreme music in podcast form. A bonding exercise for us and a music discovery tool for you, the listener. Join us as we descend into the blackest abyss of extremity and pull out forgotten gems, rotten tape trade demos, long lost EPs, and the otherwise obscure brutality.
Well, none of that is actually true for this episode. Recorded around Father's Day, this one features with Andrew's dad while he was in town visiting. No Laura, and no metal at all on this episode, just Japanese fusion, funk, nerding out about gear and lots and lots of jazz. If you're a True Death Metal Warrior of the Wastelands, this might not be for you, but I would encourage you to listen anyway. You might just like it!

For any non-Chicagoans, this is a quick 2 minute feature on the mentioned Chicago legend of the Empire Carpet Man who Andrew's grandfather sang in a barber shop with: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qqvLsAPUtmk

Also, please forgive Andrew's mispronunciation of Lima, Ohio. He say it that way all the time and it always pisses off Ohioans. Sorry!
