One good Mike Myers turn deserves another, right? How about three? This week we're tackling all three Austin Powers soundtracks! From lounge revival kick of International Man of Mystery, to the pop phenomenon The Spy Who Shagged Me and finally to the 70s brand extension of Goldmember, we have a LOT of ground to cover on this episode.
Burt Bacharach and Susanna Hoffs are two of this episode's key players. We'll hear from them several times. But not to be outdone, we've got bangers from Madonna, The Cardigans, The Lightning Seeds, They Might Be Giants, and more! And no conversation of Austin Powers would be complete without Quincy Jones' iconic "Soul Bossa Nova"!
The series spans 1997 to 2002, five short years in which the alt rock scene collapsed and made way for hip-hop. So put on your velvet suits and mix up some martinis, baby! This episode's gonna get groovy!
