Richard Swift :: 4 Hits & A Miss

"If the freedom doesn't kill you/Well then man, I think the politics might." Richard Swift cracks that line in "The Original Thought," the opening number of 4 Hits & A Miss-The Essential Richard Swift, a 50-minute, 14-song collection that serves as a primer or introduction to the late songsmith. Lovely, charmed, oddball, and often ha ha funny, this playlist presents Swift as a pop wizard/joker/wisecracking oracle, tap dancing the line between sarcastic wit and transcendental wisdom.
