Part 1 of my conversation with guest Phil Stacey about the music of 1998.

Show notes:

1998 was 25 years ago!
Jay turned 31, Phil turned 29
The one-hit wonders were abundant
Alt-rock was fading in popularity
MTV was predominantly airing programming that wasn't videos
MP3s became another way to share/steal music
Paved the way for Napster and eventually the near-collapse of the music industry
Pop was taking over: Britney, Backstreet Boys, N Sync
Artists who started out great and then just sold out/sucked
Phil's non-top 5's: PJ Harvey, Mercury Rev, Drive-By Truckers, Pearl Jam, Government Mule, Mark Lanegan, Jerry Cantrell, Tragically Hip, Neutral Milk Hotel
The Hip played at Woodstock '99 (correction: it was the weekend after JFK Jr.'s plane crash)
To be continued
