Show Notes

SINEAD GOES REGGAE! We’ve got island fever this week on "Detours and Outliers", but which island is it, Jamaica or Ireland? Where does Sinead fit on the Enya-to-Ani DiFranco spectrum? Is this a Sly and Robbie album? Where is our Britney Spears/Burning Spear mashup? Can you do a religious album without a religion? Does this album foreshadow Sinead's conversion to Islam? Can you get excommunicated from the Catholic church just by tweeting the pope? What other '90s women do we as a society owe an apology to? Are there any other reggae albums besides Bob Marley’s "Legend"? Who recorded the most authentic reggae album, Snoop Dogg, Willie Nelson, or Sinead? Throw down your arms and throw your hands in the air on this episode of "Detours and Outliers".
