Shownotes

This episode is about one of the things that launched us homo sapiens on our journey toward making music, which would eventually get us to the guitar.

That one thing is our feet, which is really two things.

When we evolved into beings who could walk upright, we introduced something new into our lives. Becaming bipedal, millions of years ago, gave us one of the foundations of music, and Disco, and CPR. It also helped to make our brains bigger, which made us smarter, and our walking feet and bigger brains and smarter noggins pointed us toward music.
