This isn’t a competition. It’s a collaboration.
EPISODE 082 kicks off with an oldie from Willie Nelson, and before things close out with an oldie from Judee Sill, you'll hear gems from Margaret Glaspy, Chris Staples, Roger Miller, BADBADNOTGOOD, and a bunch more good good not bad tunes.
“Delusional Vampire Madness, Dreamy Wild Psychosis, What's not to love?”
“You're driving down the highway. Coming out of the right speaker is Talking Heads. Coming out of the left is Cheap Trick. You turn the right speaker a little bit louder. You're now no longer in your car, you are in The Cars.”
“Single fucking Payer fucking Healthcare. Universal Healthcare. Medicare-for-all. Whatever you call it, I’d really like us to have it.”
EPISODE 087 kicks off with an unfortunately always politically relevant Todd Snider song, and before things close out with a new one from The Radio Dept, you'll hear Leonard Cohen, La Luz, Hiss Golden Messenger, and a bunch more.
As Shakespeare once said… “That which we call a rose, by any other name would smell as sweet; so Cotton Jones would, were he not Cotton Jones call'd, retain that dear perfection."
“I went from imagining this album pushing that Lou Reed + Metallica collaboration into the lockers, to them all sharing a cig behind the bleachers.”
EPISODE 085 kicks off with Bowerbirds being overcome with light, and before things close out with Kevin Devine's damn dad, you'll hear some new stuff from William Ryan Fritch, some old stuff from Billy Joe Shaver, Deer Scout, Dr. Dog, and more.
“I had never heard of The Album Leaf before hearing the title track on the latest Relapse Sampler. And now I'm here. As always, I'm late to the game, but I'm glad to have randomly discovered this amazing album.”
“Before you splurge on Couple Counselling, grab a bottle of the finest red in your price bracket & let this album do it's thang. You've gotta wonder if make-up sex even existed before this album, but that would require asking your grandparents, so it's probably best to leave it be.”
“So yeah, buy a bike. Ride it through the city at night, for an even bigger kick. Oh and eat whatever the hell you want to eat, you're wonderful.”
