Book Musik 008 - "A Voice of the Warm - The Life of Rod McKuen" by Barry Alfonso

Tosh and Kimley discuss "A Voice of the Warm: The Life of Rod
McKuen" by Barry Alfonso. Rod McKuen was a bestselling poet (an
oxymoron if ever there was one!) and singer-songwriter/recording
artist. In the 1960s and 70s he was at the summit of the mainstream
pop cultural zeitgeist. He was generally loathed by critics and the
serious literary community and yet after discussing this book we
have concluded that Rod McKuen is an essential cultural link to all
that we hold dear.
