On this episode of Songs of Our Lives, it’s Mark Nelson! Mark has been involved in so many incredible things across the last 30+ years - Labradford, Pan American, etc. - that this episode is a bit of a dream. His new album with Michael Grigoni, “New World, Lonely Ride” is one of the most beautiful things I’ve heard this year. After talking a bit about how the collaboration came together, we go into Karen Carpenter’s greatness, the all-time everything of the B-52s, Cindy Lauper’s shining moment, Bobbie Gentry, Damian Marley, Train, Kelela, Tribe Called Quest, and plenty more!Listen to all of Mark’s picks HERE“New World, Lonely Ride”Pan American InstagramSongs of Our Lives is a podcast series hosted by Brad Rose of Foxy Digitalis that explores the music that's made us and left a certain mark.
