My Hero Learns or: KISS Starts with Kaye

Salutations™!! So, Gene Simmons is my musical hero. His stage presence, his business acumen, him. I love it all. Is he an arse? Yes. But, he is the reason I picked up an instrument at all. I have grown to really get into Carol Kaye just because she has been on so many classic albums…

Recap Monday or: Threadbare Whiskey Foxtrot Plus Many

Salutations™!!   I totally wanted to say that I had fun playing with the Threadbare Trio + 1 yesterday at Muddy Creek Cafe/Music Hall. We played with Chad Huskey as our “+1” and he was awesome, as always. Sam Foster and Seth Williams’ band, Whiskey Foxtrot started the show off with us and they even…

Silent Sunday or: The Haul 3/24/18

Salutations™!!   Yesterday was a cold, snotty, sleety, crappy-weathered day. But, I had my best gal and we had each other to keep warm and enjoy some record listening. That means, of course, that we went by Underdog Records! And, here is what we got: The Decemberists – I’ll Be Your Girl – The BCPF is a huge fan…

One After Another or: a Big Day for Releases

Salutations™!!   Today in record release history has been the largest that I’ve had since I started doing the “X years ago today this album was released” posts. If it’s not something I have for releases, I move on to birthdays and today, I didn’t even get to that, much less the deathdays. So, let’s…
