The Retrospective

About Me



Started in 1999, the shows purpose is to educate listeners on the creative process that bands go through to make their music. The Retrospective also tries to showcase the bands entire career, which can take a while in some cases, so be patient.
Also, with help from the musicians themselves telling their own history, so the Retrospective stays true to the story behind what makes each band unique.

Note: Some of these shows have not been updated, they may not cover every album to date, check one of the linked boxes on the left of this myspace page for current artist information...
Here on Myspace we will bring you new Retrospectives to listen to as often as we can. If you would like a copy, please contact us through this webpage. Otherwise, feel free to download each segment to listen to whenever you want.

Thank you, and enjoy the Retrospective.
