Sounds Like Saturday or: 2541 + 16

Salutations™!! Today is the 32nd anniversary of the single release “Arms of Orion” from Prince + Sheena Easton. I love the Batman soundtrack and I love this song. It just has a feel that most ballads don’t have and I am truly disappointed it didn’t do better on the charts. This couple do a great…

Now Normal Chronicles or: A Big Disease with a Little Name

Salutations™!! Today is the 34th anniversary of Prince’s acclaimed double album Sign O’The Times. The album has some lighter moments in the typical Prince style but the title track is a bit profound. I love Jerry Chapman’s (yes THAT Jerry Chapman) cover on his Rumors of My Death album. But, because I like to have…

Salutations™!! Yep, I am a day behind on this because yesterday was Mother’s Day. So, Underdog Records is still “closed” and Jonathan says that while he does see reopening in the near future, it will still be several weeks, and procedures within the store will be different. He’s doing a shload of deliveries right now,…
