On this episode of Advances in Care , host Erin Welsh and Dr. Craig Smith, Chair of the Department of Surgery and Surgeon-in-Chief at NewYork-Presbyterian and Columbia discuss the highlights of Dr. Smith’s 40+ year career as a cardiac surgeon and how the culture of Columbia has been a catalyst for innovation in cardiac care. Dr. Smith describes the excitement of helping to pioneer the institution’s heart transplant program in the 1980s, when it was just one of only three hospitals in the country practicing heart transplantation. Dr. Smith also explains how a unique collaboration with Columbia’s cardiology team led to the first of several groundbreaking trials, called PARTNER (Placement of AoRTic TraNscatheteR Valve), which paved the way for a monumental treatment for aortic stenosis — the most common heart valve disease that is lethal if left untreated. During the trial, Dr. Smith worked closely with Dr. Martin B. Leon, Professor of Medicine at Columbia University Irving Medical Center and Chief Innovation Officer and the Director of the Cardiovascular Data Science Center for the Division of Cardiology. Their findings elevated TAVR, or transcatheter aortic valve replacement, to eventually become the gold-standard for aortic stenosis patients at all levels of illness severity and surgical risk. Today, an experienced team of specialists at Columbia treat TAVR patients with a combination of advancements including advanced replacement valve materials, three-dimensional and ECG imaging, and a personalized approach to cardiac care. Finally, Dr. Smith shares his thoughts on new frontiers of cardiac surgery, like the challenge of repairing the mitral and tricuspid valves, and the promising application of robotic surgery for complex, high-risk operations. He reflects on life after he retires from operating, and shares his observations of how NewYork-Presbyterian and Columbia have evolved in the decades since he began his residency.

[sniff] For the honest-to-God final epipod ever of Finest Worksongs, Matt & Matt had the pleasure of discussing The Replacements' "Let It Be" album -- which won final our "Listener's Choice" contest. Yes, the boys delve into the music and the history of the artists -- just like they've done on the 128 previous epipods. But this final one was also a chance to reflect on five years of fun -- and to say thank you to the Finest Workfans. Stevens calls this the "Kitchen Sink Epipod." Listen and you'll hear why. Thank you to everyone who has been with us since the beginning, and for those many new friends we've met along the way. It's been a joy and an honor.…
In this final Christmas Epipod of the podcast, Matt and Matt reflect on their journey through various unique Christmas albums over the years, highlighting their favorites and the joy of discovering new music. They delve into the R.E.M. holiday fan club singles, discussing their significance and the mystery surrounding them. They also discuss the nostalgic and timeless qualities of the Charlie Brown Christmas special, exploring its music, animation, and the deeper meanings behind its themes of joy and longing during the holiday season. Matt and Matt also discuss the unique production choices that set it apart from other holiday specials and reflects on the lasting impact it has had on audiences of all ages.…
For the final “regular” epipod of Finest Worksongs, we finally tackle a subject that we’ve held off for so so long: the Beach Boys’ masterpiece “Pet Sounds.” It’s an album that was revolutionary for its time, and still sounds as such to this day. “Pet Sounds” was the creation of an inspired Brian Wilson, who dreamed, envisioned and ultimately crafted the album to his desires with the help of The Wrecking Crew (and NOT his band mates). When the rest of the band finally arrived, Brian “just” needed their vocals - and they weren’t too thrilled about it at the time. But some 60 years later, the world finally caught up to what Brian Wilson had in mind. And it’s arguably one of the greatest albums of all time.…

Very few duos - sorry, they told us they don't like to be called that!-- have achieved as much commercial success as Daryl Hall and John Oates. (Don't even THINK of referring to them as "Hall & Oates, by the way.) With a run really beginning in the mid-1970s through the '80s, these two Philly natives ruled the airwaves with their "Blue-Eyed Soul"-infused brand of pop and rock. Their "best of" compilation, the optimistically titled "Rock 'n Soul Part 1," is an essential addition to anyone's music collection. All the hits are here - and man, did they have hits: "Sara Smile," "She's Gone," "Maneater," "Private Eyes," "I Can't Go For That (No Can Do)," and on and on and on.…

It’s hard to imagine, but there was a time when Bruce Springsteen wasn’t “The Boss.” In fact, there was a time where he was on the verge of being just a nobody, just another regional musician, trying to make it around New Jersey and New York. But like so many things orbiting Springsteen, there’s a legend to the story. With his breakthrough album “Born to Run,“ Springsteen won over the critics and the fans alike. In the process, he unleashed onto the world perhaps his most seminal song— the album title track. The world was primed and ready for Bruce Springsteen — and the world would never be the same.

The casual music fan may not immediately recognize the name Kevin Parker. But say "Tame Impala," and it's a different story. Sure, there have been band "members" (ie., collaborators) in Tame Impala, but the band is really all Parker's creation and doing. And nowhere is that more evident than on 2015's "Currents" album. Parker holed up in his Fremantle, Australia, home (taking some breaks to swim in the ocean) to record, mix and perfect the album. The result is a more dance-heavy take on Parker songs (especially compared to previous Tame Impala joints), and an album also heavy on the breakup theme. But don't think it's a downer; the album has hooks and flourishes and so much dance-ability – especially on the 8-minute-long lead track "Let It Happen," as well as on "The Moment," "The Less Know the Better" and the oh-too-short "Disciples." Parker was influenced by cocaine and mushrooms for "Currents" --and it shows. The album is trippy and funky. In other words, it's Tame Impala. Follow us on social media @finestworksongs…

Alanis Morissette's 1995 album "Jagged Little Pill" was ripe for mid-90s success -- and it more than delivered. Morissette -- previously a child actor and dance-pop artist -- dug into her soul, and (with the help of songwriter Glen Ballard) released an album of angry, frank and catchy post-grunge rock hits. To say these songs struck a nerve is an understatement. Six singles came off this album with five of them becoming bonafide radio and MTV hits: "Hand in My Pocket," "Ironic," "You Oughta Know," "You Learn" and "Head Over Feet." Alanis was able to unleash her inner emotions and thoughts in a raw offering assisted by some of the biggest musicians from that era -- and it showed. Follow us on social media @finestworksongs…

In an era of iconic music (and fashion) superstars, Cyndi Lauper burst onto the scene in the 1980s with a flash of neon-infused female-forward pop. She was perfect for the MTV generation, as her look took the pop culture world by storm. But “She’s So Unusual” was not just a vehicle to get her on TVs. The album is packed with timeless classics like “Time After Time,” “All Through the Night” and the VERY progressive for its time “She Bop.” But with “Girls Just Wanna Have Fun,” Lauper delivered a female anthem that resonates 40 years later. And she looked so … “unusual” doing it. Follow us on social media @finestworksongs…
"And as we wind on down the road ..." of Season 10 of Finest Worksongs, we turn our attention to perhaps the original Monsters of Rock: Lez Zeppelin. Their fourth album (sometimes called "IV," sometimes referred to as "ZoSo") was released in 1971 and was an immediate and longstanding success. "IV" became one of those albums that everyone seemingly had thanks to the might of muscle of "Rock and Roll," "Black Dog," the marathon majesty of "Stairway to Heaven," and the mystical and mysterious "Battle of Evermore" -- not to mention the pounding of "When the Levee Breaks." It's an album that showcases the best of Page, Plant, Bonham and Jones, and it truly stands the test of time -- more than 50 years later. Follow us on social media @finestworksongs…
Sure, it's been 20 years since Usher's "Confessions" album was unleashed on the world and solidified Usher Raymond IV as one of the biggest musical and entertainment artists of his generation. But an artist like Usher is timeless, and his pick to rock the Super Bowl halftime in 2024 speaks to that. "Confessions" is the second best-selling album of the 2000s decade, and it spawned a number of (consecutive) No. 1 songs, including the iconic "Yeah!" But it wasn't just the music that made Usher a sensation. His charisma and physics-defying dance moves left people in awe. "Confessions" would go on to sell more than 15 million copies worldwide, making it the best-selling R&B album of the 21st Century (so far) by a male artist. You can listen to Confessions by Usher on Apple Music, Spotify, Tidal, and also he's playing the Super Bowl, y'all!! Follow us on social media @finestworksongs…
For our season-ending "Listener's Choice" epipod, we dive into Billy Joel's fifth album, his 1977 offering, "The Stranger." The album made it to No. 2 on the US Billboard 200 thanks to singles such as "Just the Way Your Are," "Only the Good Die Young," and "She's Always a Woman," but it has long since become critically appreciated (especially by fans) due to Joel's ability to capture the Big Apple via tunes "Movin' Out (Anthony's Song)" and "Scenes from an Italian Restaurant," along with "Vienna." You can listen to The Stranger by Billy Joel on Apple Music, Spotify, Tidal, and those little juke boxes in the booths of those old school pizza restaurants in New York.

If it seemed like England's The Sundays came out of nowhere in the early 1990s it's because, well, they sorta did. The dreampop quartet didn't start out with the idea of being major music stars -- they just wanted to have a little fun and make some music. But there were a couple problems with this: Harriet Wheeler and David Gavurin. Harriet's lilting, songbird voice made her one of the most distinctive female voices in pop music; and the gorgeous guitar work by David made The Sundays alternative rock gold. Their 1990 debut, "Reading, Writing and Arithmetic," was released in 1990 -- less than two years after they formed. "Here's Where the Story Ends" made them massive indie stars in the United States, while "Can't Be Sure" (their first single) was lauded in the UK. The Sundays would go on to create two more beautiful albums before settling into a more normal life. They are still missed. Follow us on social media @finestworksongs…
Few artists have had as much crossover success as Garth Brooks. The Okie not only took the country world by storm in the early-to-mid-1990s, but he was a certified mega pop star as well. And in doing so, Brooks redefined how country music was perceived -- and performed. Brooks made country music arena-friendly. His songs were radio friendly as well, as his 1991 album "Ropin' The Wind" proved. The album would go on to sale more than 14 million copies and produced hits (and Brooks standards) like "Rodeo," "What She's Doing Now," "The River" and "Shameless" -- a Billy Joel tune that showed that Brooks knows a great song when he hears it.

Long before there was a TV singing competition called "The Voice," there was Whitney Houston -- aka "The Voice." But there really was no competition. Houston's power and range was second to no one else of her generation. In fact, the term of "The Voice" was something of an insult; it suggested that she was given a gift of singing from above, that it had little to do with talent. But to those who heard "I Wanna Dance With Somebody" or "Greatest Love of All" Or "I Will Always Love You" or any of the other chart-topping hits, it didn't matter where the voice came from. It was magical. Houston sadly died in 2012, but not before gifting us all with a gorgeous legacy. Follow us on social media @finestworksongs…
