The radio program Sound Opinions on Chicago public radio station WBEZ interviewed Frank in a segment they call Classic Album Dissection. You can listen to it here: http://www.soundopinions.org/ They do a weekly podcast, too. Mostly, it's a pretty good show.

The Breeders video is great. When was that made?


Love that show! Didn't know they did a podcast. I'm psyched.

@Gargamel,
They cover all types of music, and since I don't love all types of music, sometimes I scream at my iPod.

For example, after he sings, "In Birmingham they love the Governor," the backup singers are singing, "Boo boo boo," not, "Ooh ooh ooh." Interesting.


A whole new perspective; fresh and insightful.

@Gargamel,
what a great song and it's neat to see the dancers back then.

I appear to be heading down a pretty serious tunnel of 50s doo-wop and 60s and 70s soul. These episodes tend to last awhile. But I mean, it's crazy to think I didn't know this song existed before today:

I'll tell you what happenend.

I've been listening to a lot of Impressions, and just yesterday I was goofing around at work, reading up on the Chicago soul scene in the 60s and 70s. What do I find? One of the developers here--this is a financial risk consulting firm mind you--this big nerdy, 30-something white dude whose gut regularly hangs out from under his shirt, is apparently the attache to all things Chicago soul. I mean he's just a freak for this music.

Check it, he does a show on 88.5 WHPK, Sunday nights. It's called Sittin in the Park: http://www.sittinginthepark.com/

Click on the Music Shows link and you'll find a vault of obscure records. I can't imagine what this dude's vinyl collection looks like.

I'll keep his secret a secret for awhile. But pretty soon I'm going to need him to burn me some CDs.

@Gargamel,
radical stuff.
I'm guessing this is a promo pic of the Five Stairsteps
