Rants and Ravings of a Misguided Dreamer and Observer
Salutations™!! We had NO agenda yesterday. The BCPF and I got up, showered, spent time with Jonathan at Underdog Records, had a fantastic breakfast at Young Cardinal Cafe, listened to records, dinner at Davie Tavern and started re-watching one of our favorite Brit Coms, ever. It was a glorious Saturday. Here’s the haul: Wilco – A.M. —…

Salutations™!! Today is the 40th anniversary of Hall & Oates’ Voices album. I had never heard this song until the Wedding Singer soundtrack. Yeah, I know… insane. Anywhat! Enjoy! Until tomorrow, same blog channel… Scorp out! — “On a night when bad dreams become a screamer, when they’re messin’ with a dreamer, I can laugh it in…

Salutations™!! I feel we’re getting closer to being able to rummage through some used vinyl in the next month or so, but until then Jonathan is still delivering vinyl from Underdog Records all during the week. I think sales have been okay for him but I’m sure he could use some more. Head over to the…
Salutations™!! I am so longing for the opportunity to get back into Underdog Records and rummage through the used albums, some new albums and just to see Jonathan again. This is getting rougher as the time slips away. We’ve eaten well, though. This week was a lot shorter in both the headphone/streaming listening and the…
Salutations™!! The BCPF and I have been quarantined and like I said last week, we actually don’t have time during the week to listen to records, even though we have been surrounded by them all day every day for the past three weeks. But, when The BCPF is doing her thing and I am doing…
Salutations™!! Today is the 35th anniversary of Hall & Oates’ Big Bam Boom album and this was one of my faves from that album. Enjoy! Until tomorrow, same blog channel… Scorp out! — “In the moonlight, under starlight, songs old as the night are what I’ve been dreaming of. Everybody’s hard as iron, locked in a modern…
Salutations™!! Today is the 45th anniversary of Hall & Oates’ Abandoned Luncheonette album. And whilst searching for a cover of “She’s Gone,” I came across a shload of covers for Steelheart’s song called “She’s Gone.” This one got a lot of “reaction videos” made and I had to give it a listen, then I couldn’t pass…
Salutations™!! Yesterday was Mary Haglund’s birthday, so of course, we were there to celebrate with her at Mary’s Gourmet Diner. Then we went by Underdog Records and grabbed a few LPs. Not a big haul this week. Here’s it is: Peter Gabriel – Plays Live — I got this on Tuesday from Underdog Records but waited to mention…
Salutations™!! After a week off, it was back to the routine and that included our return to Underdog Records. My only regret for the trip to Asheville was that I didn’t go to any record stores up there. But, we’re back and here’s what we got! Jerry Goldsmith – Chinatown (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) – I love…
Salutations™!! Yesterday was misty and cold. A near perfect day if you ask me. Why? Because I was with my best girl and I had records. I love records. And, The BCPF and I love us some Underdog Records. We got to see several of our friends whilst there and that’s always a plus. So,…
