Veteran Chicago newsman Dave McBride was often the padding for the introduction and conclusion to Steve Dahl's radio program. However, it was Dahl's obnoxiousness throughout the program that overshadowed the brilliance of his sidekick. On A Nail in the Head, McBride steps out on his own, delivering 32 of his most requested soliloquies to compact disc for the first time. Longtime loyal listeners will fondly recall these clips, while new listeners will be taken on a journey through witty puns, limericks, and an endless stream of factoids which will undoubtedly make you the most unpopular person at a party if you regurgitate one too many in a conversation. This album is absolutely essential to anyone who is a fan of the spoken-word format or amazingly refreshing and honest journalism. ~ Rob Theakston, Rovi
