EPISODE 075 kicks off with Ugly Cassanova (and yes, there is a perfect explanation for why it sounds like Modest Mouse), and before things close out with a new song from Califone, you'll hear some great tunes from The Cave Singers, Bert Jansch, Lowpines, and a bunch more good stuff.

“Love this new album from Jeff Tweedy. It has the melodic simplicity and catchiness of Uncle Tupelo and Wilco's early records, but with songwriting by a seasoned hand, someone who is emerging on the other side of middle age -- kids raised and out of the house, distractions receding, and existential questions front-and-center.”
