Spinning Monday or: The Haul 10/10/20

Salutations™!! The BCPF and I started our Saturday a little different this week. We went to breakfast at Bib’s Downtown and had some delicious biscuits and gravy and a great BLT. Then, we went to Underdog Records and, came home to listen! Also, just throwing this out there… if you get a chance to go…

Now Normal Chronicles or: What a Joyous Substance

Salutations™!! Today is the 33rd anniversary of New Order’s compilation album, Substance 1987. Yeah, it’s a comp but it’s also New Order’s best-selling album. There are plenty of cool things to pull from this, but The BCPF says that “Ceremony” is her all-time favorite song, ever. Yeah, it’s a leftover “cover” from New Order’s previous life,…

Now Normal Chronicles or: Not Much to Report Here

Salutations™!! So, today is the anniversary of two albums that I could even bring myself to talk about, and for neither of them do I have many positive things to say. I have a strange love/hate relationship with Radiohead. I love parts of their catalog and totally cannot stand other parts. OK Computer and Pablo Honey…

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 Haul 9/7/19

Salutations™!! Yesterday, The BCPF and I got to attend a 60th birthday bash unlike either of us had seen before. The Michael family (the awesome owners of Yamas!, Cin-Cin, Waldo’s Wings and Mama Zöe Michael’s restaurants) celebrated the matriarch’s milestone and the shindig was amazing! That’s their business and I won’t go on about it,…

Sounds Like Saturday or: The Joy of Order in the New Radio Division Head

Salutations™!! So, you know I don’t normally do compilation albums, at least not featuring them, when I talk about albums and music in general. But, today is the 32nd anniversary of Substance 1987 from New Order and The BCPF is crazy about that, even saying that “Ceremony” is her favorite song of all time. Yes, it’s a…

Sounds Like Saturday or: Radiohead

Salutations™!! Today is the 21st anniversary of Radiohead’s OK Computer album. It’s old enough to drink. I’ll drink to it tonight at Willows Bistro. I was really hoping to find a video from the VSS show of this with my buddy Patrick Ferguson doing the vocals of the entire album. I was really surprised and bummed…

Silent Sunday or: The Haul 12/16/17

Salutations™!!   It was a beautiful but chilly day in downtown WSNC. The BCPF and I really enjoyed being out and about. We did our normal routine stuff but added a trip to the Krankie’s Craft Fair. We saw some cool things, bought a few small items from local craftsfolk and of course, went to…

Rock and Roll Hall of Fame or: Sing It Sister!

Salutations™!! So, I know the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is at times controversial, sometimes political and always polarizing subject. Some think it’s contrived, others a complete waste of time. I have been critical of their inability to nominate qualified artists over some that have been sketchy at best. Now, I know opinion is…
