Rants and Ravings of a Misguided Dreamer and Observer
Salutations™!! The BCPF and I went to eat first at Cafe Arthur’s which we hadn’t been to in about 18 months. We then went to a drag carwash to get Anabelle washed for the second time in two days. Then, we hopped over to Underdog Records and then home to do some listening. Here’s the…
Salutations™!! So, as I said yesterday, I’m going to attempt to write my Monday blog post about the week of “my” listening. Per usual, this week’s streaming listens comes from Discogs’ shuffle feature and it has to be an album that I own on vinyl (outside of peripheral things like Beeswax Vinyl & More listens),…
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 my dad’s birthday. I got to talk to him a little bit and I’m glad he’s here for me to do that. He’s a great man and no matter how hard I try I’ll never be the man he is. But, he lets me be the man I am and that’s awesome,…
Salutations™!! Today is the 44th anniversary of Paul Simon’s Still Crazy After All These Years. The BCPF and I both love this album and we both love Paul Simon. This girl’s voice is pretty. That’s it. Pretty. She does a great job. Until tomorrow, same blog channel… Scorp out! — “I met my old lover on…
Salutations™!! Yesterday was a scheduling-weird day for The BCPF and me. We had a house-warming to attend in Charlotte so we had to put our regular activities on hold. We got back into town around 3pm so then we got to go to Underdog Records and got to listen to a few before we went…
Salutations™!! A cold and slimy day yesterday was made better by being with my girl, seeing Jonathan at Underdog Records, buying records and listening to them all day. And, in the listening (and buying) there was a lot of The BCPF influenced listening since I let her pick out a few new or reissued albums…
Salutations™!! It was a regular day for The BCPF and me yesterday. We ate breakfast (crepes, this time), ran by Underdog Records and then came home for a wonderful afternoon of “rekkid listenin’.” Here’s our haul: Mark Knopfler – Down The Road Wherever — The latest effort by the former Dire Straits frontman and ax-wielder, it is quintessential…
Salutations™!! Finally, after a break of several weeks, I have a haul to write about. Yay, me! It was good to get back in Underdog Records, see Jonathan, bin dive and then actually getting some good record listening time in. Here’s what we got: New Order – Movement — The debut album from New Order after the death…
Salutations™!! There are a lot of albums that have anniversaries today but, we don’t usually play them on Saturdays and we’re not going to be home anyway, so I wanted to highlight one here. On this day in 1973 (making this 45 today), Paul Simon’s There Goes Rhymin’ Simon was released. Happy day to it. Here’s…
