It was my\\xa0privilege to host the\\xa0legendary Alan Cross in Episode 12,\\xa0voice of that\\xa0iconic Canadian music doc we\'ve all\\xa0listened to at some point in our lives\\xa0- The Ongoing History of New Music.

As Alan and I talk about the songs that make his skin vibrate,\\xa0he tells some incredible stories about\\xa0the things he touched in\\xa0Abbey Road Studios,\\xa0how he perplexed Paul McCartney, and\\xa0his hilarious discussion with Pete Townsend about the\\xa0instrumentation in "Won\'t Get Fooled Again".

And after we get through his list, we geek out\\xa0over David Bowie.\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0
