S8E424 - Aimee Mann 'I'm With Stupid' with Robert Scheffler
New York City singer/songwriter Robert Scheffler joins us this week with an artist Rob somehow slept on all these years - Aimee Mann. Her second full-length, 1995's "I'm With Stupid", is the one that did it for Robert, and her deceptively biting songcraft and the record's dense, layered guitars made a true believer of your humble host.
Songs discussed in this episode: Voices Carry ('Til Tuesday cover) - Gang Green; Always, Excuse The Mess, Basher - Robert Scheffler; Up The Junction - Squeeze; Long Shot, Choice In The Matter - Aimee Mann; Animal Nitrate - Suede; Sugarcoated, You Could Make A Killing, Superball, Amateur - Aimee Mann; When The Hangover Strikes, I Think I'm Go Go - Squeeze; All Over Now, Par For The Course, You're With Stupid Now, That's Just What You Are, Frankenstein, Ray, It's Not Safe, *hidden track - Aimee Mann; We're All Waiting - Robert Scheffler
