Sidetrack: Spoon Gives Laffitte A Musical Middle Finger
Manage episode 203888487 series 2083430
One year after releasing "A Series Of Sneaks", Spoon erects a permanent middle finger to Ron Laffitte in the form of a single. Laffitte, the recently canned VP at Elektra Records, was ultimately responsible for ASoS's failure & for Spoon getting dumped from the label. This week's sidetrack dives a little deeper into the story as we listen to both sides of the single, "The Agony of Laffitte" & "Laffitte Don't Fail Me Now".
