Stuck In Thee Garage #415: March 4, 2022

Death happens. It's part of the circle of life, as they say. In the music world, it's painful when you lose musicians you like, but some deaths hit harder than others. Mark Lanegan died last week at the age of 57. Given the insane life he's led, it's a wonder he didn't die a long time ago, but somehow that doesn't make his passing any easier to take. This week on Stuck In Thee Garage, I played songs from throughout Lanegan's career in hour 2. He really had quite a wide range of collaborations over the years in addition to his stellar solo work. I could have filled the two hours with great Lanegan songs, but these will do for now.
