Australian troubadour Paul Kelly (public)Mother of Invention
Australian troubadour Paul Kelly drops by on the heels of his latest CD, "Ways and Means." Because he focuses on working-class life, he's sometimes compared to Bruce Springsteen. Yet there's an unassuming quality to his folk-pop reveries that critics have compared to Roy Orbison, Tom Waits and other offbeat romantics. Decide for yourself today when he pays us a visit. Speaking of offbeat, we visit with Gail Zappa, the widow of iconoclastic musician Frank Zappa. A new CD of his "serious" orchestral music was recently released by the Ensemble Modern, the German new-music group that Zappa worked with late in life to much acclaim. Gail Zappa discusses her work on behalf of her late husband.
