TCBCast 425: Is Good Times (1974) Underrated? An Album Discussion

First order of business news, Elvis News.

There's actually a little bit.

Epic has been nominated for the first of hopefully many award nominations and hopefully wins to come, including the Critics' Choice Awards for Best Music Documentary, Best Archival Documentary, Best First Documentary Feature for director Baz Luhrmann, and Best Editing for Jonathan Redmond.

And also, down in your neck of the woods, nominated for four awards from the Australian Screen Sound Guild, including Best Sound for a Documentary, Best Sound Editing, Best Sound Mixing, and Best Music Production.

I don't know what you want to call them.

Uh, Little pieces, I guess, artistic pieces in the booklet.

I like my little soundtrack.

I actually, I did buy the CD a while back and I have stuck it in like once.
