Marc With a C returns to “the journey”. Said journey is a trip through his record collection in alphabetical order, and he plays you some highlights. In the time that this episode was recorded, Marc was checking out the “Bu” through “Ca” portion.

A relatively eclectic episode where Marc talks about 8-Tracks, a mysterious David Byrne album, and offers up a surprising admission about Captain Beefheart. Are you ready? We’re congregating now!
