Do Call It A Comeback, Episode 2: The Next 15

The next 15 songs in our definitive-comeback-song season storm the booth! Sometimes the song is coming back to the podcast from a previous season; sometimes our lunch is coming back on us thanks to cynical bongo glurge; and sometimes we're wondering if there's a portrait of Jeff Lynne in an attic somewhere? Execrable album-only tracks, the supergroup conundrum, market forces' inability to control a film soundtrack, how you score the montage during The Big Game, and our joint memoir, Morbid Tales Of Disgruntlement (To A Bossa Nova Beat). Throw on a gold lamé tunic and some fuzzy slippers, dunk those Russell Stovers in a vodka mart, and tell Alexa to crank this all-new MASTAS ep!

Our intro is an LL Byrne J mash-up, and our outro is Michelle Branch. For more information/to become a patron of the show, visit patreon.com/mastas.
