#075: Fitzcarraldo by The Frames

With the release of Glen Hansard's first solo record, we thought it was about time to revisit his pre-Swell Season, pre-Once band, The Frames, and their sophomore album from 1996, Fitzcarraldo. Many people know Hansard from the movie (and now Tony Award winning broadway musical) Once and his other band The Swell Season, but Hansard actually cut his teeth with his Dublin, Ireland outfit The Frames starting the early 1990s.
For Tim and Jason, this album goes back to the college radio days, and they've been singing it's praises ever since. Find out why this album is "criminally overlooked," and how that led to an end-of-show tangent about a new music-based reality show called Rock Cops coming to a channel near you very soon (or not).

Hi guys, really enjoyed your analysis of Fitzcarraldo. As you say, you don't find many podcasts about albums by Irish bands. I agree that this is a fine work. As a native Dubliner myself I suspect D. C. may have stood for Dublin City. If you have never visited the fair city put it on your bucket list. It's filled with great musicians!
