Run Rose Run Dolly Parton
On Dolly Parton's 48th album, Run Rose Run, she stays in the middle of the road between bluegrass and commercial country. It's a concept album connected to the novel she co-wrote with James Patterson.
Squeeze Sasami
Sasami began her career playing in other people's bands, but in 2018 set out on her own solo career. Squeeze is her second solo album and it made a big impression on Jim and Greg.

Dear Listeners,
For more than 15 years, Sound Opinions was a production of WBEZ, Chicago's public radio station. Now that the show is independent, we're inviting you to join the band and lend a hand! We need your support more than ever because now we have to do all the behind-the-scenes work that WBEZ handled before (like buying insurance and paying for podcast hosting, ugh). Plus, we have some exciting ideas we'd like to try now that there's no one to tell us no!
