Recurring songs about cows, beer, and a “vault” classic about space by U.S. 69 (“2069: A Space Oddity”) are just a few of the subjects brought to life in lyrical fashion on this edition of TRANSMUSIC AIRWAVES (#118).

Plus Charles Mingus, Curved Air, B.B. King, The Red Krayola, DJ Koze, Baka Beyond, Slim Cessna’s Auto Club, John Entwhistle, Jack Kerouac, Los Lobos, Neutral Milk Hotel, and Tom Waits.

There’s more new music from Dengue Fever, Sufjan Stevens, Partch (The Harry Partch Ensemble), Tweedy, Morgan Delt, Robert Plant, and the Pere Ubu Moon Unit.
