On this episode of Reelin' In The Years... The Featured Five Theme is Friday Night Lights: Songs that make some sort of reference to high school football in the lyrics... Also, the basement recording that became an indie-rock phenomenon - thanks to a movie scene... David Bowie’s eye patch looked like a fashion statement - but the truth was far less glamorous... The 19-year-old thief, a diamond ring and a deadly 1921 robbery that inspired a Grateful Dead classic... The suburban road that inspired a songwriter’s attack on similar houses, perfect lawns and status symbols... The hit single written in just fifteen minutes - while its songwriter nursed a hangover on a plane... New music from Keb' Mo' and Train. Deeper cuts from The Kinks, Black Crowes, The Smiths, Gov't Mule, XTC, George Harrison, Sister Hazel, Dire Straits, and much more! For more info on the show, visit reelinwithryan.com
