Sufjan Stevens and the Michigan MilitiaSufjan Stevens
Young songwriter, singer and multi-instrumentalist Sufjan Stevens visits to share his CD "Michigan." The album is an affecting and impressive blend of simplicity and complexity, and through its various songs it tells of lives lived in a beleaguered and beautiful state. Host David Garland considers the CD one of the best he's heard in quite some time. In addition to guiding us through "Michigan," Stevens will tell us about his background and his intention to write and record an album for each of the fifty states. Plus, Sufjan brings in his banjo and guitar to perform some new songs live in the WNYC studio.

This broadcast continues to time-out when I listen to it, is there a way to download it?
SUFJAN STEVENS IS SUCH A GENIUS!! I just love his music so much, I wish I could make so many amazing songs just like him. And some people don't even understand the beauty and power contained within his music. I don't know, it is just beyond words.
I couldn't open this link to listen to the show, disappointing, I love Sufjan Stevens.
