BTTB 2001-12 // The Freddy McGuire Show // X-205

This is The Freddy McGuire Show (aka Anne McGuire + Jon Leidecker (Wobbly) + Don Joyce (Crosley Bendix)).

Weird mix, don't miss this!!

Pronounced "Freedy," Ms. McGuire joins her discoverer, Crosley Bendix, and his famed engineer, Wobbly, to make her first major media appearance AND her first CD at the same time. After Crosley explains how he discovered her, Freddy launches into song after questionable song in a totally twisted lounge mode with lyrics both improvised and written. Ridiculous for sure, but surprisingly, there are many cool and amusing musical ideas here too, even though virgin producer Crosley and neophite recordist Wobbly can rarely agree on what should be what or why. But thanks to Freddy, it's all unusually charming.
