The Final Cut is 40

Five years ago when Pink Floyd’s The Final Cut turned 35, I wrote an article about it.  Now that it’s turning 40, I’m taking that piece and using it as the foundation for this article about it turning 40. This album originally came out when I was in High School – was originally released on […]

James Bond Themes Ranked

I’ve been a James Bond fan for a long time.  Many many moons ago, after my parents had divorced my dad showed me my first Bond film which was “On Her Majesty’s Secret Service”, the one off with George Lazenby.  The first one I saw in the theatres was Octopussy, and I’ve seen every once […]

Deep Purple Mk IV

I’ve been a big Black Sabbath fan for a long time, and when you know Sabbath, you know they have some lineup turnover – especially in the 80’s and 90’s.  But they’re not alone.  Nearly every band I like has some sort of turnover over the years (very few don’t – Weird Al & U2). […]

Pat Benatar

I’m writing about Pat Benatar.  I’ve done this a few times before on my blog (here and here).  I’ve been a fan for a long time – several decades.  But something happened over the weekend that made me want to write about her. You see, I saw Pat Benatar in concert this past Saturday night. […]

Harry Chapin

40 years ago today (16 Jul 1981), Harry Chapin died. On his way to a gig, actually. Those who know his music know it well, he wasn’t an artist you liked casually. If you liked him, you loved him. I’m 55 now, and mostly known for being a metal head (Black Sabbath, Deep Purple, etc), […]

Here to Tell Lara’s Tale

Those who know me know I’m a metalhead first.  Things like Black Sabbath, AC/DC, Judas Priest, Queensryche – these are my jams.  But unlike most of my metal brethren, that’s not ALL I like.  In fact, in the right frame of mind, I can like almost anything.  However one of my favorite treats I go […]

Colored Vinyl

Last year, just as the pandemic got started and we were all locked in, I did something I haven’t done since the early 80’s. I bought a record player. Somewhere around 1988 I stopped with records completely, as I got my first CD player in Dec 1987, and I was mostly into cassettes then due […]

Human Feel

On the surface this is a music post, but it really isn’t. It’s about human emotion and feelings. Before I get to that…

Harry Chapin’s Sequel

Here’s a music anniversary post that will mean more to me than pretty much anyone else.  My parents split when I was young – they divorced in 79, and separated a little before that – I was 12 when they first split up.. I have very few memories of my family unit with both my […]

The Wall at 40

“If you don’t eat your meat, you can’t have any pudding. How can you have any pudding if you don’t eat your meat?” It’s Nov 30, 2019.  An album that dominated my musical landscape like no other was released 40 years today.  It’s The Wall by Pink Floyd.  I’m here to write a few words […]
