Beatriz "Betty" Monteavaro

Artist/Musician Beatriz "Betty" Monteavaro returns with an album that both frightened and inspired her twelve-years-of-Catholic-school-self, 'Join Hands' by goth pioneers Siouxsie and the Banshees. "Are you ready?" Songs discussed in this episode: Love In A Void - Siouxsie and The Banshees; Bowling Green - Holly Hunt; Dog Eat Dog - Adam and the Ants; Poppy Day, Regal Zone - Siouxsie and The Banshees; Colony - Joy Division; Placebo Effect, Icon, Premature Burial, Playground Twist, Mother/Oh Mein...

Returning guest, artist/musician Beatriz 'Betty' Monteavaro wears her 80s heart on her sleeve. For this episode, she again set the controls for 1981 and brought a record that melded Burundi beats, spaghetti westerns, Native American imagery (and some questionable cultural appropriation) into the campy one-of-a-kind chart-topper "Kings of the Wild Frontier" by Adam and the Ants.

The Go-Go’s “Beauty and the Beat” It was one of the most successful debut records of all time that happened to be by THE most successful female rock band of all time, but perhaps most important to our guest, musician/artist Beatriz Monteavaro (Holly Hunt, Saavik), it rocked! Betty joined Rob and Barry for a spirited conversation of the power-pop goodness that has been described as one of the cornerstone albums of American new wave, “Beauty and the Beat” by The Go-Go’s.
