Blood on the Tracks Episode 51: Those Fab Fake Musical Acts.

The cursed year that was 2021 has come to an end and Lee felt like going out on a more positive note. In this mega-sized episode he's compiled a list of tracks from fictional bands and musical artists that have appeared in films. Lots of research went into this one, as Lee tries to give credit where credit is due to the people behind the fictional acts. Be it totally made up acts, parody acts that came before their film debuts, or if they actually formed later on in real life, Lee tries to cover a little of everything. He found that there's still many he could cover in later episodes, so he just might. Happy New Year, and thanks for the continued support of the show!
