System Thrown Askew or: Making Up

Salutations™!! Things were a little different today and it threw my whole system off. The other side of that is I’m still recovering from the “sickness.” But, enough about that. Today is the 55th anniversary of the release of The Beatles’ fourth album, Beatles for Sale. Here’s a good cover of a great tune from the…

Magical Strawberry Fields or: Baby, You’re a Rich Man

Salutations™!! Today is the 52nd anniversary of The Beatles Magical Mystery Tour. The original soundtrack to the film is a double EP with only the first six tunes. The singles were the other five on the second side. I never pass a chance to post some Mike Massé and he does a great job here. Enjoy!…

The Crossing or: Barefoot Two-Step

Salutations™!! It was 50 years ago today that John, followed by Ringo, followed by Paul (barefoot and out of step) followed by George walked across the crosswalk at 3 Abbey Road, St John’s Wood, City of Westminster in London. The iconic photo was taken by photographer Iain Macmillan, eventually was the cover of the last…

And Your Bird Can Sing or: A Long Long Time Ago

Salutations™!! Today is the 53rd anniversary of The Beatles’ Revolver, which, along with Rubber Soul, pretty much turned the corner for the band from their “mop-top” days. It’s #3 on the RS list and it’s pretty awesome, I must say. I once did a cover of my favorite tune on the album, but I can’t find it anymore….

Spinning Sunday or: The Haul 3/2/19

Salutations™!! We had a brief encounter with warmer, sunnier weather yesterday. That was nice and it made it harder for us to stay indoors and listen to records, but hey, we were listening to records and that’s one of our favorite pastimes. So, it worked out. But, we pulled a lot of stuff home yesterday…

KISS Off! or: Are You Sirius?

Salutations™!! This will be brief but I just wanted to say that I found the absolute best SiriusXM channel, ever. It is called KISS Army Radio and it is 95% KISS and 5% their influences or bands that may have opened for them, like Rush, AC/DC, The Who, Led Zeppelin, The Beatles, etc. I found…

A Little Late or: Things Happen

Salutations™!! I just wanted to tell you guys that I had a little family drama today. Not drama like someone causing problems but an issue with a family member who was injured on the job. That took up some of the day and threw me behind with my stuff. Not his fault, it just happened….

Gone Solo or: Many Kisses (Part 2)

Salutations™!! The month of September is a huge month for KISS fans, even if they don’t know it. Why you may ask? Because the month of September is the anniversary month for the releases of TEN KISS albums. I’ve talked about Alive!, Animalize and Asylum. Now, today, September 18th is a doozie. In 1978, all…

Spinning Sunday or: The Haul 8/4/18

Salutations™!! At Underdog Records yesterday, I was able to finally, once and for all, tackle a certain Beatles problem that I have had over the last few years. You’ll find out about it in this haul: The Beatles – Rubber Soul — So, I have been burned (by my own self) over and over finding this on vinyl….

Spinning Sunday or: The Haul 7/21/18

Salutations™!! It was a big week from Underdog Records this time around. Not just yesterday but Friday as well. Jonathan had purchased a large number of records and immediately went in and pulled all the $1 records to go ahead and get those out for sale. I happened across them and snatched about 13 $1…
