SINATRA SAILS A SPACESHIP ACROSS THE SOLAR SYSTEM! Seriously. In the late seventies, Frank plotted a pompous triple album that would rival any prog-rock’s most pretentious sci-fi rock opera. Surf guitarist Mol Mollusk (Vampire Squids From Hell) drops by the studio to truly dig into what sounds like a dying man’s deathbed confession transformed into a 40-minute song-cycle about interplanetary travel. How autobiographical can you be when someone else is writing all your material? Does Sinatra understand anything about astronomy? How do you know Uranus is heaven? And more importantly, how do you pronounce Uranus? Why does “The Future” sound so nostalgic and retro? Who thought this was a good idea? And what would Frank’s mafia connections to anyone who disagreed with them? Join us on this intergalactic planetary journey with the Chairman of the Board on this week’s Detours and Outliers?
