Fri, Apr 18, 2008 The California Report Magazine California Songs -- Robyn Hitchcock Listen to segment (RealMedia stream)
We continue our California Songs series with British singer-songwriter Robyn Hitchcock. Over his 31 year career, Hitchcock's lyrics have found fans all over the world -- first through his bands The Soft Boys and the Egyptians, and later on albums of his own. We spoke with Hitchcock about his song "A Man's Gotta Know His Limitations (Briggs)." It takes its inspiration from the Clint Eastwood film, "Magnum Force."
