Season 3 Episode 21: #FreshCuts Vol. 62 (Open The Window!)


Listen Later

The pleasant breezes of #FreshCuts Vol. 62 wash over Burke Wasson, Wellington Davis, Steve Strait, and Nathan Ferrell. We discuss opening the window (man!), hard times in America, creepy dudes who may or may not be in Steely Dan, a surprise proggy middle section, a hairy old man in a speedo, a Canadian sidebar, the evolution (for better or worse) of Marcus King, sounding like The Beatles, and confusing artists and life in general.
