Singer-songwriter Garland Jeffreys plumbed the soul of New York on gritty albums in the 1970s and ‘80s. (Host John Schaefer calls Jeffreys’ signature track, “Wild in the Streets,” the “best Rolling Stones song the Rolling Stones never wrote.”) Now he debuts his first album in 13 years - which once again explores the sounds of the city he calls home. He joins us live in the Greene Space.

WILD IN THE STREETS!!!!!!!! Great to hear you on the radio again. Never forgot our meeting. Still play "WILD IN THE STREETS" occasionally on cd.
Your old Atlantic Promo man in Detroit still rocking,
Can't wait to get this album .
Damn. He is "heavy" and he's my "neighbor."
Wowza.
I've never been a fan of Garland's--never heard his stuff. But!!!!
And y'all know I'm a Big Soundcheck Fan. Now I'm a Jeffreys' fan, which sucks for him in that I don't have a dime to spend.
Good job. Thanks.
