On this week's episode we delve into the Recorded History of global superstar and all round lovely fella, Hozier who took time out of his remarkably busy schedule to sit down with Ed and discuss the 3 albums that he holds the closest to his heart. He takes us on quite the journey from growing up around his Dad's phenomenal blues collection, to how Take Me To Church changed his life, working with his musical heroes and the rather surprising inspiration behind his new E.P and album.
Needless to say his 3 album picks are exquisite...even if he gets the order wrong...twice! (but he's very very tall so we'll allow it this time) and his reasons behind his choices are as fascinating as the records themselves. So sit back and enjoy an interesting and revealing time with the phenomenally talented and reassuringly sound Hozier.
Hozier's records:
1. Thin Lizzy - 'Live & Dangerous (1978)
2. Chet Baker - Chet Baker Sings (1954)
3. Howlin' Wolf - Moanin' In The Moonlight (1959)
If Hozier inspires you to go and buy one of the records he mentions (or just one from your own Recorded History) then we’d love if you supported our partners at TheRecordHub.com. Just try and have them in the correct order!

Our first guest on Recorded History impressed us very much (we're not even sorry). Shania Twain is the best-selling female artist in country music history and one of the best-selling musicians of all time, having sold more than a 100 million records. Which made her decision to be our first guest on the podcast even more generous... although our trailer did chart in Ireland so there is that.
Recorded History is as much about the memories and feelings that music inspires as it is about the music itself. Which means we cover Harry Styles, driving in cars and Fisher Price record players.
Shania's Records:
1. Breakfast in America - Supertramp (1979)
2. Introducing the Hardline According to Terence Trent D'Arby - Terence Trent D'Arby (1987)
3. Born To Die - Lana Del Ray (2012)
If Shania inspires you to go and buy one of the records she mentions (or just one from your own Recorded History) then we’d love if you supported our partners at TheRecordHub.com.

Rummaging through the record crates with Ed this week is one of his pals and colleagues Pamela Joyce. Well known for her quick wit and even faster rap skills on Today FM, Joyce has become a big name in Irish broadcasting.
In this episode she opens up to Ed about online trolls, self-doubt and Britney (b*tch). It's a brilliant chat in which she shares three records that have meant something to her in her lifetime. All firmly from the pop canon of course.
Pamela's records:
1. Blackout - Britney Spears (2007)
2. Loud - Rihanna (2010)
3. Renaissance - Beyonce (2022)
If Pamela inspires you to go and buy one of the records she mentions (or just one from your own Recorded History) then we’d love if you supported our partners at TheRecordHub.com. And maybe consider giving Cardi a look in seeing as Pamela didn't!
