In this week's episode, Matt and Ryan take a look at the self-titled debut album from American singer-songwriter Rickie Lee Jones. Rickie Lee Jones won Best New Artist during the 1980 Grammy Awards. AllMusic said this about the album: "Rickie Lee Jones comes on like the love child of Laura Nyro and Tom Waits on her astounding self-titled debut album that simultaneously sounds like a synthesis of many familiar styles and like nothing that anybody's ever done before." Check out this week's episode to see what the guys have to say about the record.
