Randy Newman might be surprised to see himself mentioned on a progressive spirituality blog. In his five decades of making music that is alternately brilliantly satirical and elegant (and sometimes both), he hasn't often smiled on religion or religious people.

I like the music of Randy Newman and his satirical take on religious people. I will probably get this album. I first heard about it on NPR, of course.
