Rock N Roll Archaeology (RNRA) is more than a podcast; it’s an immersive, carefully researched and produced audio documentary. RNRA explores the history of Rock Music, and then goes a step further. We contextualize Rock N Roll; we place it within the cultural, political, and technological landscapes of the late 20th and early 21st centuries. With storytelling, commentary, and a dash of musicology, we explore how music, culture, and technology interact and affect each other—how they ARE each other.

episode 23: Episode 22: The Second Wave - On the Morning After the Sixties

Carole King makes Tapestry, a sincere, modest, and deeply personal album that hits huge and becomes a milestone for women...
