Blue Jay Way – Adam S Leslie

Season 2

Episode 8
Tim and author/musician Adam S Leslie get lost in the fog of George Harrison’s Blue Jay Way. They examine the hazy “post-Pepper, pre-White Album” moment where the band leans into guitar-less experimentation, taking in strange melodic modes, lyrical ambiguities, Leslie-speaker vocals, flanging drums, improvised cello flourishes, and hauntological backward tape fragments.
