Wednesday, Bob Boilen of NPR's All Songs Considered is our guest. He's joining us to talk about his favorite music of 2014 (so far). There are some names you may recognize, like Kishi Bashi, Beck and Jack White. There are also some new artists that may remind you of old artists (you can tell us if you hear Neil Young or ELO). He's even got a song in Portuguese (which you don't need to speak to understand.) And since it's summer, there may be a tune or two you'll want for your next road trip.
