The creator of the landmark 1992 album "Girlfriend," which was named one of the 100 best albums of the '90s by Rolling Stone, Sweet went on to unleash one classic platter after another with "Altered Beast," "100% Fun" and "In Reverse" before spending the past decade expanding his artistic horizons as part of the vocal supergroup The Thorns and three amazing duet albums with Susanna Hoffs as the "Under the Covers" series. He's about to release another album, and he took the time to talk with Koz about the stories behind the music, his creative process, the rollercoaster career of a rocker and his passionate devotion to the paintings of Margaret Keane and her "Big Eyes" body of work.

Tue, 30 Jun 2015 17:13:03 +0000

They had 11 members, many of whom continue to power American comedy through the creation of "Reno 911," "Viva Variety!", the "Night at the Museum" films, and cult hits like "Wet Hot American Summer." But Allison had his own unique niche in the troupe, as he came out as gay right from the beginning of their shot at success, in 1994 - more than two decades before marriage equality was achieved. Allison invited Koz over to his New York City apartment while Koz was in the Big Apple on other Radio Titans business, and this terrific Kozversation is the result.
