NEM-Pretty Much Pop Crossover: So-Called Greatest Albums Feat. Mobley, Noah Berlatsky, Jon Lamoreaux

<p>It's a music discussion episode! How does canonization work in popular music? Is <a href="rollingstone.com/music/music-lists/best-albums…; target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Rolling Stone's 500 Best Albums of All Time</a> list just a modest record of the favorite albums of people associated with Rolling Stone? Is it a statement of what “experts” in popular music enjoy? Does it reflect English-American popularity, and what responsibility to list-makers have to experience and include world music, indie music, and other music by those not powerful enough to have promotional backing?</p>
<p>Mark is joined by journalist Noah Berlatsky (who wrote <a href="amzn.to/3qBoFhW"; target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><em>The Best Greatest Albums of All Time Ever</em></a>), musical artist <a href="mobleywho.com/"; target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Mobley</a>, and <a href="thehustle.podbean.com/"; target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Hustle</a> podcast host Jon Lamoreaux to discuss the album as a format, music curation, the subjectivity of taste, and our childhood love affairs with particular albums.</p>
