David Pajo returns to discuss Papa M‘s Ballads of Harry Houdini and provide insights about each song, reflecting upon the profound memorial gathering for Steve Albini that we attended this past July and also Steve’s talents and knowledge-sharing generosity, embracing improvisation and never touching a computer to make his new record, how playing in Tortoise still informs his work, unsettling songs and horror movies, reissuing Slint’s Tweez and releasing Aerial M’s Peel Sessions, making new music, touring with Gang of Four, other future plans, and much more.
