SO SO GOOD

The detail, the research, the storytelling, the editing– exceptional! One of the best podcasts out there for music lovers. A truly visceral deep dive into great artists' discographies. Highly recommend, especially the MJ and Janet Jackson episodes.

Scholarly, detailed, and demonstrative.

I learned so much about MJ’s BAD album years from John Cameron’s expert production. So much behind the scenes material I never knew about! How he gathered all that content and arranged it so beautifully is a wonder!

Amazing insights and detail!!!

Perfect balance of lyrical analysis, cultural context, and musicology telling the stories behind some of my favorite musical legends. After each listen, I think about these artists differently and with more reverence.

Fantastic time capsule

This is the first podcast that I’ve ever wanted to listen to repeatedly. The content is too rich for one play-through. I am blown away by how insightful and entertaining this is, and how it brings to life albums that I have played for 30 years.

I love it here

I discovered this podcast through a random YouTube recommendation and it has been the highlight of my year so far. I’m a HUGE fan of Michael and Janet’s music, and I’m also a fan of some of the other artists he’s covered. I can tell that a lot of time and research was put into these projects and I can truly appreciate that. Everything is so well done and I’m excited for whatever else is to come from JC Musicology!

Exceptional!

Thank you so much for these gifts. If you haven’t done so already, I hope you would do these types of podcasts for the Bad album and the Invincible album! I’d love to have the insight of the creation of those albums and never heard content as well!

This production will take you on the type of musical journey as if you’re sitting right at the mixing board next to the artist.

My Inner Music Nerd is So Happy

I cannot get enough of this podcast. It is sooo good! I can’t even imagine the amount of research that goes into it. Among the things I love about it are the clips from the artists talking about their work as well as hearing different versions and vocal mixes of some of the songs. This is a great podcast.

Beautifully done.

So incredibly researched snd executed, I feel guilty that its free. Looking forward to future shows, subjects and music. So many opportunities-Culture club, Dusty, Liza with the PSB, eighties Elton, Tina...i could go on for days. I came for Janet and stayed for George and Sade. If theres ever a Patreon, Im the first to donate. PLEASE keep these coming. Cheers, big thanks and the best of luck to you. Shane. San Francisco, CA.

Unreal Amazing

This artist is seriously amazing. His work of Janet Jackson’s catalog is unreal. The deconstructed tracks of Janet’s work is unlike anything I’ve heard. It’s so beautifully done.

Unmatched depth, analysis & exclusive tidbits

You blew me away with the absolutely brilliant ‘Janet, Jam & Lewis’ .... and I keep coming back for the Janet Jackson episodes. Also loved the George Michael episode. You truly have a gift for this, John!
