For the next Album Club we're launching a new feature -- the Guest Curator. Once in a while, we'll ask a prominent music lover to choose a classic album for us to listen to. For our first time out, we asked Twin Cities bassist extraordinaire and all around good guy John Munson (@munsongs). You might remember him from such popular bands as Trip Shakespeare and Semisonic, and these days he's working on a lot of projects, including The New Standards and Minnesota Public Radio's Wits series.
When I asked John to curate for Album Club, his first question was, "Have you done OK Computer?" Nope! Done and done! This June, Radiohead's classic turns 15 years old, and I don't need to tell you that many critics consider it one of the greatest albums ever made. Should be a great listen, and Munson said on Twitter, "I will be spending the whole week nervously ramming information into my musket which will then explode, Fudd-like." Start OK Computer at 9p Central on Tuesday, April 26. Listen and tweet along with the hashtag #albumclub. Oh, and bring your own musket....
