HAPPY PULP DAY TO ALL WHO CELEBRATE! A day I never thought would come. A day we’ve been waiting a day we’ve dreamed of for 24 years and it is here today. I preordered my copy at @monstermusicsc and I can’t wait to race to the store and bring it home! RIP Steve Mackey. We miss you!

Lagniappe: Eric Bibb - *In The Real World*: Fervor and passion occasionally overwhelm songcraft and nuance but he is tough to beat when he strikes a proper balance and he frequently does here. Eric Bibb’s music makes me a better man. #BestAlbumsof2024 #2024Top15Albums

1. The Cure - Songs of A Lost World: What can you say about an album that lives up to 16 yrs of anticipation, months of hype? What do you do with an album with all the best features of its iconic creator w/o feeling like rehash of past glories? Simply the best. #BestAlbumsof2024 #2024Top15Albums

I already have my first, "I want a do over" on my Top 15 of 2024. There's an album that got left off and I don't know what would come off to make room for it but this one should be on there.

5. Jack White - No Name: Feral, visceral squalls of guitar with apocalyptic yelps, sneers, and shouts. I thought this version of Jack White had been lost to the ages but he is in full force without retreat or self-parody. “Bless Yourself” is savage. #BestAlbumsof2024 #2024Top15Albums
