Guitarist Mo Ouyang is here with us today, discussing Jane's Addiction and their 1988 major label debut, Nothing's Shocking! Over the course of an hourlong discussion, we cover... Mo's long residence in Shanghai, China, and the types of guitars you can get there Jane's Addiction's surge in late-80s Los Angeles and their cultural influence Who Jane was, and why it was probably not great for Perry Farrell to write a song that uses her name The hippy vibe of "Summertime Rolls" The influence of Jane's on Mo and his friend MC Frontalot What it was that Ted should "Just admit" on "Just Admit It, Ted..." Whether the lyrics in "Standing in the Shower... Thinking" really say "The water is a-piping hot" or something less wholesome What the "Pigs" represent in "Pigs in Zen"... and for that matter, what "Zen" is in that song, too Our key tracks and a preview of next week's episode! Come join us for an hour of thoughtful and good-humored commentary, and we'll catch you on the B-side!
