Co-host Sean plays us an album by Michael Parks. An actor and musician who was on the brink of stardom in the late 1960s, Parks fell into obscurity until his acting career was revived decades later by a generation of maverick filmmakers. His music, a blend of country, folk, and rock. remains largely unheard—until now.

Mott the Hoople - Mott
Guest Jacob T. Simons introduces us to the "loser rock" of Mott the Hoople. We listen to the album which followed in the wake of their success with All the Young Dudes (both the album and song) which finds the glam rock band coming to grips with the harsh realities of being in a band.

Roy Wood - Boulders
Co-host Jeremy spins selections from the debut solo album by English singer-songwriter Roy Wood. Best known for his work with bands like the Move, Electric Light Orchestra, and Wizzard, Wood's solo work carries a similar knack for pop hooks and eccentric arrangements, the latter quality amplified by the fact that he's playing everything.

Jade Warrior - Floating World
Co-host Sean brings a sharp left turn for the program: a progressive rock LP by UK band Jade Warrior. This album, their fourth, was itself a stylistic shift by the group toward what might best be described as "world" or "ambient" music, and was influential on the burgeoning New Age genre.

The Bangles - All Over the Place
Mark Weathersby aka DJ Mahogany joins us to hype the debut album by the Bangles. Predating their superstar years, this LP contains a more raw rock sound than their later work—while still ripe with rich harmonies and vocal hooks.
