We are joined by guest David O. McCullough as we discuss American musician Boz Scaggs. The album in question tends to stand in the shadow of its predecessor—the biggest record of Scaggs' career—but upon further review, we find that it should please those who enjoy his most famous work.

Co-host Jeremy puts an early seventies album by American jazz guitarist George Benson on the platter. As we take in Benson's flamenco-influenced takes on classic sixties California rock, we also look at his impressive career—a series of twists and turns that has been historically dismissed due to his success on the pop charts.

Co-host Sean lays out a pretty convincing argument that funk and soul singer Chaka Khan is a much more important artist than most realize. We listen to her third record with the band Rufus and discuss just some of the details of her fascinating life story.

We kick off season five with a long-overdue episode on singer-songwriter Laura Nyro. Joined by vocal group Labelle on this record, Nyro showcases her knack for R&B and soul music through a wide range of cover songs, an interesting choice for an artist arguably best known for having other musicians perform her material.

Taylor Rowley returns to discuss American musician and songwriter Leon Russell. A well-known figure in his time, this sixth album released in 1975 finds Russell at the height of his highly impressive career. From the Wrecking Crew to the Gap Band, we learn that Russell's influence goes well beyond the songs he's known for writing.
