Come learn (or recall, as the case may be) what Franz Ferdinand, Minor Threat, Lush, Elastica, Blur, Henry Rollins, Low, Guided By Voices, and many others know of Wire's enduring legacy.
You may remember when, in 1988, Faith No More engaged the vocal services of Mike Patton. You may even know of his work with Mr Bungle and John Zorn in the '90s. Mr Patton recently reemerged with "Mondo Cane," and we'll have a listen.
Kronos Quartet has worked with dozens of composers and film directors since 1973. We'll take little nibbles from KQ's collaboration with Mogwai on Clint Mansell's score for "The Fountain."
You know that trail mix with coconut, only it's not shredded coconut but chunky strips? They look as if someone tore off a bit of toenail, rather than clip it. That's the analogy I've decided to use for including Goober and the Peas in this morning's program. Freeks-n-Deeks is a musical trail mix, a blend of flavors and textures, and Goober and the Peas are the coconut toenail.
