I notice pretty much every album they review gets 3 stars.  It lets you know that you should only read the one or two non-3-star reviews.

Maybe it's the easy way out, but I think All Songs Considered does a pretty good job, unless you only want to hear angry buzzing music.

Good god, based on your reference in your 70s music blog post I decided for like the sixth time to give that podcast another chance.  First thing I hear is raves about how awesome the Kaiser Chiefs and the Streets are, and a guy connected over a tin can trying to participate in a roundtable.  No thanks.  When NPR tries to be hip it's like me trying to act "street."  Ever hear that Bryant Park Project show?  Yikes.

DFK, we need to work together to find a better music podcast.

It's a shame that only big public radio organizations can afford the licensing to put out music podcasts.
