Completely Conspicuous 240: One Man Mutiny

Part 2 of my conversation with guest Brian Salvatore as we discuss our favorite solo artists. I've also got the Bonehead of the Week and music from Ted Leo and the Pharmacists, Peter Gabriel and David Byrne. Show notes: - Re-recorded via Skype - Brian: Ray Davies has made two great solo albums - NBC cut Davies from Olympics closing ceremony broadcast - Jay: Ted Leo has been consistently great for the last decade - Brian: After Roxy Music, Brian Eno went on to long and interesting career - Jay: Neil Young has been erratic, but when he's on, he's great - Brian: Jonathan Richman has moved from post-punk hero to troubadour - Jay: Peter Gabriel is much more than "Sledgehammer" and "Solsbury Hill" - Moved past the crazy costumes he wore live with Genesis - Brian: David Byrne continues to make interesting music - Jay: Mark Lanegan's post-Screaming Trees career has been varied and uniformly excellent - To be continued - Bonehead of the Week Music: Ted Leo and the Pharmacists - Under the Hedge Peter Gabriel - Here Comes the Flood (live) David Byrne - Fuzzy Freaky (remix) Completely Conspicuous is available through the iTunes podcast directory.
