Heidi Spencer plays live and Randy Newman is in session

Session guest Heidi Spencer talks to Bob about film school, travelling and her UK debut album, Under Streetlight Glow. Plus Randy Newman's final three session tracks.

Session guest and Milwaukee native Heidi Spencer has been compared to Dolly Parton, Joanna Newsom and Edie Brickell. She talks to Bob about her time in film school (a consequence of her desire to hear her music in movies), her travels around the world and her UK debut album "Under Streetlight Glow".

Bob also talks in depth to Randy Newman and hears the final three session tracks recorded especially for the show.
