Links from the Podcast
Here are a few links to some of the things I mention in today's episode. Thanks for listening!
Kate Bush
In this episode, I appreciate the heck out of Kate Bush. If you want to learn more, here are a few things to check out:
- That BBC documentary I was super into: The Kate Bush Story: Running Up That Hill, 2014 Never For Ever (1978) (or check out the super epic and kind of proggy track "Breathing") Hounds of Love (1985) (or buy the remastered version on vinyl—well worth it!)* The music video for Babooshka—I didn't mention it in the podcast, but it is phenomenal.
This record is way too good. None of us deserve it. (Listen to it anyway.)
Adrian Belew
Also had a great time talking to Rich about Adrian Belew! Here are some links to some of the different things we mentioned.
- King Crimson, Beat (1982) (or, seriously, buy it on vinyl—try Discogs) Twang Bar King (1983) Adrian Belew's amazing bass player Julie Slick Adrian Belew 2019 tour (go see it!) Check out Rich's blog, Createdigger's Corner, at musicallyrich.tumblr.com. He's a super insightful dude who you need to have on your radar no matter what genre you're into, because he's into everything.
