please do read the description -- the Grateful Dead, for those of us in the listenership, have meant so much (and in so many different ways!) over the years. we mourn our loss with Bob Weir's passing but I celebrate his gift to music, which is forever

I wrote a big thing on TRACKS II: THE LOST ALBUMS, which features at least one of my favorite Springsteen LPs of the last 30 years.

With ‘Tracks II: The Lost Albums,’ the Boss finally lets us hear the music that didn’t fit into his narrative—including one very horny ’90s record

Number 7: I Started Something I Couldn’t Finish

“And now eighteen months' hard labor
Seems fair enough”

The most underrated Smiths song in my opinion. I’m always surprised this doesn’t feature more in “best of” lists

Being positive is a choice. It's a choice I've made to follow this approach every day and in every aspect of my life. I invite you to do the same. It runs contrary to what the world expects, and I dig that !! Join me #HR !! #HRCommunity #GlobalHR #EncouragementFriday

THIS THIS THIS
A reminder that every small bit of good you do - whether it be putting art into the world, helping a friend or stranger, donating to a good cause, or just listening to someone who needs to vent - offsets all the evil in the world just a little bit. And sometimes that's just what the world needs.
