About this listen

 Some of the greatest albums in music history almost never happened. In this episode, we explore the near-misses, industry battles, and last-minute saves behind classic records by Bruce Springsteen, Queen, Meat Loaf, The Smiths, Boston, and more. These albums faced label disputes, creative struggles, and sheer bad luck—but against all odds, they made it to the finish line. How close did we come to never hearing Born to Run or Bat Out of Hell? Join us as we uncover the fascinating stories behind the albums that nearly didn’t get made.
