Good music is what we want to hear.

What do you mean? Good music. It's what we dance to, what our children will dance to.

And if you don't want to play it, then take your records and go home. Did you have a band? Good or bad? It's a great band. It's a bad band. It's like pizza, baby. It's good

no matter if there's music in the air.

Welcome to Sound Opinions from Chicago Public Radio and American Public Media.

I'm Jim Deorgatis, the pop music critic at the Chicago Sun Times.

And I'm Greg Cut. I write about Rock and Roll for the Chicago Tribune. Today on the world's only rock and roll talk show,

we have got what is shaping up to be one of the biggest albums of the year if not the decade according to the marketing

program is that true noles I thought you were talking about TV on the radio

no

TV on the radio has made an excellent record and we will be reviewing it later on in the show but the

record that everybody's talking about in the next couple of weeks will be this

Beyoncé record Beyoncé who was half of the biggest power couple in pop music

with Jay-Z the Kingpin rapper of New York City.

Beyonce has got her second solo record coming out and we are going to be reviewing

it as well as talking about her new movie. She's probably got 17 commercials in the works as well as well as

a new tour. She's all over the place. She is the Diva of the day. We have also got

an incredible live performance from Government Mule, the band that is led by Warren Haynes,

amazing vocalist, great guitarist, the only jam band we think that matters.

Yeah, they're the heaviest of the jam bands without a doubt.

And later on I've got a Desert Island jukebox pick, Greg, but first as always we have some news.

George Bush doesn't care about black people. I ain't saying he's a gold dig.
