April 8 marks a total solar eclipse crossing the Midwest and Third Country Radio is here to celebrate! We discuss the eclipse and how space has been such a potent source of inspiration for artists since time immemorial. Along the way, we'll have great tracks by David Bowie, The Mavericks and Pink Floyd.
