034 Hey Little One (Glen Campbell) / Petula (Petula Clark)

Robert Pollard made it easy on himself by just taping one album by Scott. It's a compilation of songs from the first 5 solo albums with lyrics covering diverse subjects such as Ingmar Bergman films, the loneliness of the long-serving sex worker, the 1968 Czechoslovakian uprising against the Soviet Union and fat men that belch a lot.

A touch more Schmilsson on the podcast as we examine his next 2 albums. And who would think this album pair would be well accepted everywhere? It’s quite amazing how fair people can be.

Before these albums, Harry Nilsson was doing hard day’s nightshifts at the bank as a computer operator. Then he became the man everybody’s talkin’ about with a little Help! from his friends John, Paul, George & Ringo who started dropping his name Here There and Everywhere.

This tape pairs 2 stars from an earlier era struggling to find an audience in a market now overcrowded with beat groups dabbling in psychedelia. Join us to find out if the hippy kids were right to take a dim view of Rick’s other side and turn down the invitation to Runaway with Del on his further adventures.

Your hosts the 21st century schizoid men invite you to meet them on the desert shore to hear what they make of Christa Paffgen’s difficult third album and the King Crimson record that may well be to blame for inventing prog rock. Do they have time for such Fripp-ery?

They call him The Wanderer and he’s certainly wandering around around around around around on these 2 albums, covering a range of musical styles and contemporary songwriters of the day including Joni, Bob and Leonard.

No less a figure than The Damned’s Captain Sensible described this as “just the most amazing album I’ve ever heard.” It’s Groundhog Day and life is for living, right now before you die.

Now here comes our latest podcast, walking, looking like a zoo. Listen in to find out what the 2 old farts at play have to say about it. Will the verdict be sweet sweet bulbs growing in my ladies garden or does it sound more like a squid eating dough in a polyethylene bag?

The capricious Californian Captain captured on 2 albums. Captivating!

Here’s one for all the jug addicts. Trip inside this house with us as we absorb these 2 albums like a drop of rye fungus on blotting paper.
