Kingcow is introduced to the "mash-up". This album was not his favorite. It enjoyed some success and they did receive a Grammy. Beware, there are explicit lyrics.

Episode 208: Steve Martin / The Steve Martin Brothers

In Episode 203 we played a banjo player. This is the first side of that album. Both sides are legendary performer, Steve Martin. He plays the banjo on side two and does comedy on side one. The cover art is the back side of the album. The front is him dressed as a sleazy Las Vegas lounge lizard. There is some profanity during a couple of the tracks. We hope you Rhetoricians get a good laugh out of this. And, congratulations to those of you that guessed who it was.

This sophomore release from Night Ranger included their biggest hit, "Sister Christian". While not one of Kingcow's favorites he has had his appreciation of this group grow over the years. This album definitely rocks. Enjoy!

Kingcow really liked this album when it came out. The front man for Creedence sounds really good on this 1985 release. Heather seemed to appreciate it, as well.

This is the flip side of Heather Nightbringer's first island album. Kingcow definitely will be around when she's playing it. This is straight up rock!

The Panda brought this iconic blues singer to the Rhetoricians. Even if you don't know the name, you will know the voice. Anyone interested in picking up something by Ray Charles would do well to get this gem!

Kingcow brought this offering. Side One will be played in a future episode. See if you're as smart as his wife and the Panda...they both figured out who it was on the first track. Good luck and enjoy!

Sadly, on April 22, 2021, the face of Digital Underground, Shock G, passed away at the age of 57. Gregory Jacobs was an iconic front man. While not extremely knowledgeable of the group Kingcow did like their sound. This is their second album, "Sons of the P". R.I.P. Shock G R.I.P.

The Panda's choice, here, was a nice album. Kingcow enjoyed listening to this side. We're sure there is a Deadhead or two out there. Sit back, relax and do what the Dead would do.

This Australian new wave band really hit it big with their debut album. Kingcow really enjoyed it. The Panda did as well. Some really solid songs on this one.
