Description

Peter's got a problem: Too much music and not enough attention span. Dre's got a problem, too: Peter's taking her along with him.

Every episode Peter gets a random album from his collection, and Dre experiences it with him, good, bad, or amazing.

Do Peter and Dre encounter an EP in Peter's collection that's he's not actually all that familiar with? It's more likely than you might think.

Warren Zevon might never have gotten the universal acclaim that one of either Peter or Dre thinks he deserves (we'll leave it as an exercise for the listener to determine which of them it is), but he still produced a thoughtful, occasionally funny, sometimes macabre album in 'Excitable Boy' from 1978. How does it stand up, and what (and where) exactly was Lee Ho Fooks?

We struggle with the pronunciation of "μ-Ziq" more than we probably should, but 'Urmur Bile Trax Volume 1 & 2' turns out to be surprisingly straightforward of a listen. Be sure to keep your ear open for our sideline into racing games like 'Mario Kart' and 'F-Zero' because there's going to be a quiz after class, and you'll need to know where this drum-n-bass album fits into the whole equation.
