About this Podcast:
Vinyl Relics is a storytelling-driven music podcast dedicated to uncovering the forgotten, overlooked, and unfairly ignored albums hiding in the corners of rock, psych, folk, and beyond. Each “Epysode” spotlights a single record - often a lost gem or cult favourite, and dives deep into its creation. Hosted by Farmer John , the show blends rich historical research with track-by-track commentary, personal reflections, and interviews with artists, producers, and the people who helped shape the music. The result is an immersive journey into albums that deserve a second listen...or a first discovery. Whether you’re a lifelong crate-digger, a lover of music history, or simply someone who enjoys hearing the stories behind great records, Vinyl Relics offers a fresh way to explore the past one album at a time. Tune in, turn on & drop by to discover music that time has forgotten.
