(Red House Records)
Radio is a confident, in-the-pocket effort from Chuck Brodsky, travelling singer.
La Migra Viene; is a memory from his days as a migrant fruit picker
"The trees were like temples
Was a holiness to 'em
We'd pick out the bottoms
And then all the way through 'em"
Moe Berg: The Song adds to Chuck's baseball song catalog. It's about a catcher who was said to be a spy. "Radio" tells of an unlikely bond between a football coach and a kid who got kicked out of Special Ed. Funny stuff too, On Christmas I Got Nothing (We Were Jews), Hockey Fight Song."
With David Hamburger, dobro & guitars, Brandon Bush, piano and organ, Jenny Hersch, bass, Mike West, banjo and banjouki, etc.
