## Resource

Musicians recount the strange and unexpected story behind the making of your favorite albums. Nick Drake released 3 relatively unheralded albums in his short lifetime and only decades later became a household name thanks to one savvy music supervisor at an ad agency. The guys get together and discuss retuning your guitar constantly, never changing your strings, and the bridge on the river Kwai.
