Quarantine Island Discs

First Quarantine Island Discs with Recording Artist, Author and Activist Robin Renee


Listen Later

Robin  Renée claims personal favorites and influences from acts as disparate  as Elvis Costello, Jai Uttal, James Taylor, Gary Wilson, and Devo. In  the biracial, multicultural family in which she grew up, the blended  experience extended easily to music. She was just as likely to take a  ride on Gladys Knight's "Midnight Train to Georgia" as to drive along  Kraftwerk's "Autobahn," and the easy-going sounds of "You've Got a  Friend" were as common as Dylan's acerbic "Masters of War."


Her choices for Quarantine Island Discs are:
