166: Four Flies Records
Four Flies Records is a label dedicated to finding and releasing (or re-releasing) Italian cinema and library sounds. Their output is now significant and Keith owns somewhere around a third of what they've put out. It stared with the purchase of the excellent Zoo Folle soundtrack but they've been up to a lot since then too.
This episode Keith talks about the records he has from Four Flies and plays a few of his favorite tracks from the releases. They're a label worth your time, so see what they're about.

156: The Nadir
This episode, Keith takes a look at what a Rock and Roll Hall of Fame band did during a period that saw their popularity slipping and their die-hard fans turn away.
