Description

This week's guest Larry Smith brings us a record by the critically acclaimed, highly influential but criminally unheralded 80s Austin TX band Glass Eye. 'Bent By Nature' is a melodic-yet-quirky, highly intelligent collection of post-punk tunes with nods to kooky neighbors, invasive lizards and Daniel Johnston, among others.  Songs featured in this episode: I Am A Baby In My Universe - Kathy McCarty; Introduction - Chicago; Walking The Cow - Daniel Johnston; Don't Worry About The Government - Talking Heads; Come Back And Stay - Paul Young; Dalis Car - Dalis Car; Second Coming - The Stranglers; Rejoyce - Jefferson Airplane; Whiskey - Glass Eye; Desperate Man Blues - Daniel Johnston; Comeback, Oblivion, Living With Reptiles, We Don't Touch - Glass Eye; This House That I Call Home - X; Love Gone Wrong, Dimpsey Naish, Kicking The Dog, People In The House, Heywire, Parking Space, Christine, Mechanical Chihuahua - Glass Eye; That's How I Escaped My Certain Fate - Mission Of Burma; Walking The Cow - Kathy McCarty

Hosted by rock-n-roll lifer and recovering punk Rob Elba. Each week Rob sits down with a special guest and digs in to a record that got them - metaphorically - high. Great albums, great guests, questionable commentary.
