Sounds Like Saturday or: Rollin’ It

Salutations™!! Today is the 47th anniversary of Paul McCartney & Wings’ Band on the Run. I think this is their best one. There, I said it. The title track, “Nineteen Hundred and Eighty Five,” “Jet” “Helen Wheels” (in the US) and this track. I love this song. Nancy does a great job with it. I…

Spinning Sunday or: The Listen 5/23/20

Salutations™!! Another Saturday passes that we didn’t get to darken the door of Underdog Records. That doesn’t mean Underdog isn’t busy. Heck no! Jonathan is running himself ragged to make deliveries and has extended the reach to Greensboro, High Point and other places. So, definitely watch the Underdog Records Facebook and Instagram and watch what…

Spinning Sunday or: The Listen 5/2/20

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…

Sounds Like Saturday or: No “Rain”

Salutations™!! Today is the 47th anniversary of Led Zeppelin’s Houses of the Holy album, one of which I love and I love when Heart does covers of Zep songs. This is great! Enjoy! Until tomorrow, same blog channel… Scorp out! — “It is the springtime of my loving. The second season I am to know. You…

MISS FIT BOSS or: She What Kicks Butt!

Salutations™!! I don’t do a lot of exercising although I really, really need to. Heck, we all need to. Last year, we had one of our rounds of Allan Younger’s Cast of the Charismatic Creative Club, or whatever I decide to call the “Launch Challenge” finalists when Allan brings them in from the Small Business Center…

Spinning Sunday or: The Haul – Black Friday Edition

Salutations™!! I had told Jonathan that The BCPF and I wouldn’t be coming to Underdog Records for the Record Store Day – Black Friday event, and technically, we weren’t there at the opening for the bum-rush doorbuster event, but we did wait until about noon and went by and the store had settled down. We…

Untitled or: That Led Zep Thing

Salutations™!! Today (November 8) is the 48th anniversary of that untitled Led Zeppelin album that fans and everyone else just calls “Zoso” or Led Zeppelin IV. But, really, it wasn’t ever officially titled. Is it their best album? That’s debatable. It certainly has the song that is probably the first thing that jumps in anyone’s mind…
