The Musical Milestones is back…and presented every week for 30-ish minutes.
Scott chronicles significant anniversaries in the history of popular music on The Musical Milestones.
Based on his popular CBC Radio feature, The Musical Almanac, The Musical Milestones can be heard on Cashbox Radio.
The latest edition of the Musical Milestones is June 01, 2026:
A race to the top between Quincy Jones and Phil Spector
The guy who had to write songs in his car
A gentle protest song changes a record label’s approach
The song that wasn’t finished becomes a big hit anyway
The record exec who justified his recent hiring by finding a hit in a stack of demos
And the mediocre start to a cultural juggernaut.
