	Description:		In his four decades writing songs and playing them alone or with friends, the English-born Nashville-based singer-songwriter Robyn Hitchcock has earned a devoted fan base. His songs can mix gleeful surrealism, sexual frustration, drinking, death, sadness, spiders, snakes, and the occasional movie quote. Never one to be at a loss for words, and possessed of the greatest patterned shirt collection in all of folk-alt-psych-pop-dom, the singer-songwriter, guitarist, harmonica player, and pianist Robyn Hitchcock visited the WNYC studios back in 2006 with his then brand-new electric band, the Venus 3 (REM's Peter Buck and Young Fresh Fellows' Scott McCaughey and the late drummer Bill Rieflin (formerly of Ministry and Revolting Cocks.) Robyn Hitchcock and the Venus 3 play songs from the record, Olé! Tarantula, and waltz, nay tango, around conversation for this edition of the Soundcheck Podcast (from the archives.)
