Spinning Sunday or: The Haul 02/20/21

Salutations™!! The BCPF and I each got our hair cut yesterday. We went to the same person and we just took turns with Cynthia Pratt-Miller at Hair Bomb Hair Salon which is conveniently directly beside Underdog Records! Having Mojito for lunch was delicious but dang! It was cold on that patio. Yesterday was a mild…

Now Normal Chronicles or: Lily Black Calling

Salutations™!! By now, you know how this works. I don’t need to go over it again. So, moving on… Today is the 41st anniversary of The Clash’s London Calling album. It’s #8 on the RS list that matters (from 2012). I never gave the Clash a chance as a youngster and there are still parts…

Sounds Like Saturday or: 40 Years Lost

Salutations™!! Today is the 40th anniversary of The Clash’s apex album (at least to me), London Calling. 40 years, wow. I never cared much about them until I did the RS list. I looked for a good cover and after having good hopes for a couple of high school garage bands led to much disappointment, I…

Spinning Sunday or: The Haul 1/5/19

Salutations™!! The first Underdog Records purchase of 2019, woot! It’s going to be a good year all around and it’s going to be a good record year, too. I want to continue to fill my RS list wants and discover things that I didn’t know existed. I’m going to attempt to listen to more new…
