Episode 82 - Windows Wide Nov 23, 2007

Show notes

Windows Wide came to the studio from a farm on the far south side and in order to remain true to their sound they lugged a Fender Rhodes piano up the stairs and trust me they are heavy.\nFrom the very first song "As The Years Go By" I loved their sound and I am sure you will too. Peter, Rory, Mike and Derek create a very unique sound. They left me their current album "People Make The Worst Mistakes" and I listened to the whole thing and put it on my Zune. Yes I went the other direction... After you listen to the show, go out and support these guys, buy their album on their site.\nYou can see them live December 2nd at North Beach in Downers Grove, IL.
