Joni Mitchell said that they paved paradise and put up a parking lot. Well, that parking lot was for all the worker drones at the Plastic Brain Press Megastructure Headquarters! Nah – just kidding. Plastic Brain isn’t quite that evil.
This episode features a delightful interview with academic and cosmic huntress Dr Ruth Charnock. She talks about the book she helped to bring together: Joni Mitchell, New Critical Readings. The book recognizes the importance and innovativeness of the musician and artist Joni Mitchell and the need for a collection that theorizes her work as musician, composer, cultural commentator and antagonist. Ruth also tells us about that time she saw Midge Ure eating a curry on his own. Find out more about Ruth on her Twitter: @DRRUTHCHARNOCK ‏
We have poetry from the fabulous Chris Martin, recorded on a lonely, poetic beach. Check Chris out here: @abolish_minutes
There’s more from our resident oddball Joe Hayden and of course there’s the usual subliminal messages and high frequency mind control.
Of course this is all held together by hosts Melody Clark & Richard Daniels. Why not check their work out at www.plasticbrainpress.com. There’s a free mind meld with every purchase!
