Rants and Ravings of a Misguided Dreamer and Observer

Month: November 2018

Smashin’ Thrashin’ the Millenial Box or: Many Kisses

Salutations™!! Finishing out the month of November with KISS things, we have three more anniversaries this month. First, what is, to me, the better of the two original US-based greatest hits KISS albums, Smashes Thrashes & Hits. I don’t know why they used this title as I think it’s kind of silly, but I liked the album itself….

Music from Rock And Roll Over the Elder or: Many Kisses

Salutations™!! I failed you, Dear Reader. I had been keeping up with my KISS album release dates and missed two big ones this month, but in my defense, I have been a bit busy. Holidays, birthdays, work, and other things have kept me tied up. But, let’s just jump in. This may be long and…

Remembering or: 27 Years Gone

Salutations™!! This past Saturday was the 27th anniversary of the passing of Paul Charles Caravello. You may not know who Paul Caravello is by name, at least that name. Most of the world, even I, knew him as Eric Carr. He was the second drummer for my favorite band, my musical lifeline, KISS. I didn’t…

Knock Knock or: Irrational Conversations

Salutations™!! Piggybackin’ again tonight! We recorded Apartment 5B: Irrational Conversations with the Cool Breezes of Anytown, USA tonight. We threw a few throat punches, complained, talked about idiots who gave money to the homeless/GoFundMe scam and talked holidays and some “this day in history” stuff. We had a good show and you really should listen…

Double Piggyback or: The Beer Dads Who Ate the Town

Salutations™!! We recorded both The Man Who Ate the Town and The Beer Dads today. Ray and I talk about burgers, Hop’s Burger Barn, Carmine’s 901 (or what used to be), journalistic integrity and source dependency, and other foodstuffs. We did touch on the Thanksgiving gathering that we were both a part of, too. The…

Spinning Sunday or: The Haul 11/23/18 & 24

Salutations™!! Note: I wrote most of this on Friday night and had to modify it for today. We’ll leave most of it for today. Yes, it is for Friday and not Saturday, but that’s because we did our record shopping for this weekend at Underdog Records on Friday (and Saturday) for the Record Store Day…

Sounds Like Saturday or: Ray Davies

Salutations™!! Today is the 47th anniversary of the Kinks album Muswell Hillbillies and in searching for a cover, I found Ray Davies doing this version in some “storyteller” setting and thought it was hard to beat. So, here ya go. Enjoy! Until tomorrow, same blog channel… Scorp out! — “Don’t want to get myself shot down…

Happy Days or: The BCPF and Me

Salutations™!! As has become the tradition, The BCPF and I did our Thanksgiving recording on The Less Desirables today and it was fun. We listened to some records earlier this morning, went to have lunch at Zesto, stopped by to see Jonathan at Underdog Records, recorded the podcast and then came home and have been…
