Kyle Field (Little Wings) and Lee Baggett have been playing in one form or another for years. One of those forms is a Be Gulls. Both gents are favorites of listeners and myself so I thought it would be a great and groovy idea to get them on the show together to discuss the Be Gulls, working/touring together and the current world of music. We also have a few digressions into rush, and what extension cords Lee likes to use.

Opening Song, "Whisperskits, from the album By The Beach by Be Gulls
