This song. A ballad that is about the closest thing to an anthem that I've written.

#AnalogAfrica rarely fails me when it comes to great #AfricanMusic comps. This one is typically outstanding!

Posting this because I feel like it needs to be shared for anybody who is a fan of #LouReed, #BobDylan, or any other street poet. I think #PeterLaughner is right up there with the best of them.

Back in the day, the first 3 #Wipers albums were released and sold directly from the band's website as a 3-disc box set (with a plethora of bonus tracks). And it was only $10 or so, plus shipping! Best deal in the history of the internet.
This one is my favorite.

Inspired by a DM conversation I had on here, I had to put this brilliant record on. One of the greatest songwriters of the rock era. Sadly and undeservedly overlooked by most, despite his massive hits with The Byrds.
I love me some #GeneClark.

Words cannot describe A Love Supreme. It is its own message, in its own language. And it is transcendent. Must be experienced on its own terms. And if you get it, you get it with your whole being. If you do not, that is okay, too.

While Nate Reuss found stardom with his next band, fun., The Format's 'Dog Problems' is still his masterpiece. Not a single wasted note on there.

Their final album was unreleased until about a decade ago when Ian Gomm thankfully made it available. Great record. Includes the original version of "Cruel to be Kind."
