OMD GETS EXPERIMENTAL! Local music historian, Tom Murphy, joins us to discuss the album that nearly killed OMD’s career. How can you lose 90% of your audience with one album? What is the strategic disadvantage of painting your battleships in bright garish colors? Did Andy McCluskey really think the key to commercial success was to get even weirder?
