Hold on to your butts-It’s the Album of the year Podcast SEASON 2 DEBUT!

Charging forward, we introduce our special guest, James Rawson! (8:21) James tells us a bit about himself and his music background playing in his band, Timonium, and working at Tower Records in Los Angeles (16:50) Marty reminisces on his days playing (not very well) in bands in and around Cincinnati, Ohio (24:11). We then delve into the charts of the year we’ve decided to tackle for the season 2 premier-1988! ((29:57) Kris breaks down the complexities of UB40’s “Red, Red Wine” (31:33). We then languish over the good, the bad, and the ugly of the billboard top 100, from INXS to Debbie Gibson, and back again (39:08). Next, we move onto Jame’s pick for 1988, Talk Talk’s magnum opus, “Sprit of Eden”. (67:00) After breaking down this proggy, jazzy, bluesy, mystifying and beautiful album, Kris is up next with a landmark hip hop album by Public Enemy, “It takes a Nation of Millions to Hold us Back” (1:11:28) Last but not least, Marty brings it home with early Indie rock statement, Sonic Youth’s “Daydream Nation” (1:41:05).
