3-22-25 Pushing The Envelope: Music Decidedly Left of Center

Greetings!

New Petridisch, new Tremosphere, new Robert Scott Thompson, other new things, slightly older stuff, then a tangent focused on the work of Ricky Ian Gordan and Adam Guettel. (Oh, did I ever tell you I once co-hosted a show themed around musical theater & related goodies?)

Enjoy!

Joel
