    Composer and multi-instrumentalist Jim O'Rourke visits to discuss his work with Wilco, Sonic Youth, and Stereolab, and to share his own genre- and expectation-defying music. Jim O'Rourke is a busy musician. His own recordings range from elaborately arranged tuneful songs to electronic free improvisation. In addition, he's a new member of the well-established alternative band Sonic Youth, he mixed the new Wilco CD, plays on Stereolab's latest, and a lot more. He's also a virtuoso collector of recordings, and on this show O'Rourke joins host David Garland to share his enthusiasms and music.
