Scratch a Track: Music Review and Commentary Podcast artwork

In this podcast we review and discuss music with a focus on albums both new and old. Each week we select an album, give commentary on the history of the album and band, and ultimately decide which track we would scratch off. Back in the day when CDs and Vinyl records were the main ways of consuming music the downside was they would get scratched. The worst part was it would often happen to one of your favorite songs. In this game you get to choose the track you would scratch off. It's a fun game to play and will certainly stir up debate among your friends and music fans alike. Happy Scratching!
