Are you searching for some amazing music, but you can't bear to sift through all those elitist-sounding music reviews out there? Join theatre artists and music enthusiasts Michael and Tyler on their quest to find the perfect album. Each week they invite a guest (or two) to share stories about the music that made them who they are AND to suggest what THEY believe is the perfect album. An album so brilliant that "10 out of 10" just doesn't do it justice.

Ep 97: Tim Fawkes Nominates Sarah McLachlan's "Fumbling Towards Ecstasy"

We've been covering quite a few female artists this season, but finally, at long last, we have arrived at the Queen of Lilith Fair herself - Sarah McLachlan - and her early 90s masterpiece "Fumbling Towards Ecstasy." (Which is NOT the one with the song that plays in all those commercials with the neglected puppies.) Our guest? Arguably better than ice cream. It's Chicago-based musician, music educator, and Erykah Badu fan Tim Fawkes, who is now the first person to invoke Meredith Brooks' name on the pod. Do we talk about Lilith Fair? Of course we do. Do we consider her place in the pantheon of talented Canadian singer-songwriters? Yes indeed. Do we connect the experience of listening to this album with an obscure SNL commercial parody? Guess you're going to have to listen to find out.

Also because we are committed to truth in journalism, we have a bit of fact checking on this episode: Michael and Tim did not see The Futureheads at the Unitarian Universalist Church in Philadelphia. They saw Gomez at the TLA. Glad that's all cleared up.

Check out Tim's band Midnight Hour Soul on Instagram and IRL at Montrose Beach this summer.
