New at Smile Politely

Cristy and I have some new writing at Smile Politely, including a review of Robyn Hitchcock's new album and his recent performance in Chicago, a tribute to a college radio station, and a review of the Smoking Popes show.

PSYCHEDELIC SOUL / 1987 vs. 1996


A few episodes of Rock Geek FM have come and gone since my last posting here - string sections, Joe Boyd, songs with brass - but I wanted to post the show we did with Rick Halberg on April 28: Psychedelic Soul

This Saturday Cristy and I are having a DUEL. That is right. We are in disagreement over which one of us graduated from high school in a better year for rock. And we're going to rely on the listeners to vote by phone or by email. 1987 vs. 1996. Tune in Saturday morning from 8-9 a.m. CST on 90.1 FM (for those in the radius) or online at
