Play • 1 hr 11 min
I Said "OUCH!, That really hurt!"We are back with the beginning of a three-parter looking at the work of Iceland's biggest export, Björk. But before we move through her "proper" solo career we dive through her origin story. We briefly talk about her debut as an 11 year old prodigy, the three albums of Post-Punk Indie-Pop The Sugarcubes, and take a look at her oft-ignored album of Jazz classics Joining Nick and Ewan this episode are co-host of the excellent Dancing About Architecture podcast, lecturer, and electronic banger music machine Liam Moloney, as well as host of the Phillip Larkin pod Tiny in all that Air, Lyn Lockwood In this episode we discuss these records: Björk (1977) Life's Too Good - The SugarCubes (1988) Here Today, Tomorrow Next Week! - The SugarCubes (1989) Stick Around For Joy (1992) Gling-Glo (1990) NOTE: This was originally intended to be released much earlier in the season so we may reference that, Yes we are still amateurs!! Also Ewan's mic plays up a bit in the latter half, I think I've fixed it up as best as i can!
