Liz Phair (Soundcheck: Friday, 20 June 2008)
When it was released in 1993, Liz Phair's debut "Exile in Guyville" was heralded as many things: a response to the Stones' "Exile on Main Street," a fresh (and frank) collection of songs, and a great rock record. It was also a complex feminist manifesto -- one that's endured for 15 years. (Rolling Stone called it one of the 500 best albums of all time.) Phair joins us to talk about the album, which is being reissued next week, and her work on the CBS television series "Swingtown." View original source »

Girl Power! (Soundcheck: Monday, 19 May 2008)
Back in 1993, Liz Phair's debut album "Exile in Guyville" shook the rock music establishment. Then along came acclaimed records by PJ Harvey, The Breeders, and Hole. Yet these days, many women in rock are better known for their tabloid escapades than serious music-making. Joining us to discuss this phenomenon are Elisabeth Vincentelli , the arts and entertainment editor at Time Out New York; and Carlene Bauer , music critic from Elle Magazine.
