449. Paul Thorn on Marshall Crenshaw 'Marshall Crenshaw' (1982)

This week, I'm joined by the poet laureate of Tupelo, Mississippi, mister Paul Thorn. Growing up as a preacher's son, Paul wasn't allowed to listen to secular music, so when he managed to sneak a copy of Marshall Crenshaw's perfect debut album, it became a constant and sole companion for years. Paul takes us with him on his journey with the album as he grew into a young man, and why the album still resonates with him today.
