About this Episode

Fastball's winning album "All The Pain Money Can Buy" was best known for its huge hits, "The Way" and "Out Of My Head" but if you only stopped at those two, then you missed out on an album full of endearing and heartfelt songs. On this episode we confirm that Fastball hit this one out of the park.

Please listen along with us. Your homework for next time is the soundrack to the film "Hedwig & The Angry Inch".
