Today, we’re going to cover a lot of ground, by way of this song, “Genius of Love” by Tom Tom Club. I’ll go ahead and tell you everywhere that we’re going, but you’ll have to see how we get there. We’re gonna talk about Tom Tom Club, sure, but then also Zapp, Common, Paul Simon, J Dilla, ACDC, Grandmaster Flash, The Talking Heads, Kurtis Blow, Fela Kuti, and just when we can’t go any deeper, we’re gonna loop it back and around and connect the whole thing together.
NOTE: This is the extended cut that is over 5 minutes longer than YouTube and does not include a sponsor.
