ByKenneth Corsini October 22, 2025October 22, 2025
*Album cover from a compilation from blues/blues rock guitar legend Michael Bloomfield Saturday night the Rock Chick and I went out to dinner with some dear friends of ours, the Jean Genie and her husband, who I’ll call Matt (name changed to protect the innocent). At some point during the conversation, as is my wont,…

ByKenneth Corsini September 4, 2025
Image of Jim Fixx’s iconic 1977 book ‘Running,’ taken from the internet and probably copyrighted Apparently school just started around here…I don’t have any kids in school but there are signs. Every year about this time my Playlist: Songs About School starts spiking in views/listens. And suddenly, all through my neighborhood and the surrounding environs…

Playlist: We Look Back 40 Years To Rock Songs Of…1985
ByKenneth Corsini March 6, 2025May 10, 2025
*Image of the concert poster for Live Aid, July 13, 1985 likely copyrighted… A few years back, inspired by doing a playlist centered on the landmark year in music that was 1971 (a 50-year lookback at the time), I started putting together playlists centered on specific years in the 70s and then later we also…

Neil Young, ‘Archives Volume III 1976-1987’ – A Box Set As Messy As The Era It Covers
ByKenneth Corsini October 10, 2024October 11, 2024
I think I’ve mentioned already, these box sets are going to kill me. Pete Townshend released his 14 disc live box and one of my perennial favorites the Faces put out a box with all of their BBC live performances on it that stretched over 8 discs. I’ve spent a lot of time listening to…

Review: David Gilmour, ‘Luck And Strange’ – The Pink Floyd Guitarist’s First Solo LP In Nine Years
ByKenneth Corsini September 9, 2024September 12, 2024
Erstwhile Pink Floyd guitarist David Gilmour has returned with his first solo album in nine years, Luck And Strange. We heralded his return a while ago with a post about the first single, “The Piper’s Call,” a song that has only grown in my estimation since it came out. I had to look it up,…

Review: Billy Idol Revisits His Landmark LP, 1983’s – ‘Rebel Yell – Expanded Edition’
ByKenneth Corsini April 28, 2024
Lately, I’ve been rather focused on the year 1984, having just done my playlist based on tracks from that big year in music, but with Billy Idol releasing Rebel Yell – Expanded Edition, I find myself turning back to 1983… which I thought I was done thinking about after last year’s Playlist: 1983. I’ve been…

A Music Collector’s Journey: From Vinyl to CDs to MP3’s And Now… Back To Vinyl Or Streaming?
ByKenneth Corsini February 23, 2024
*Photo of my multiple options to listen to David Bowie’s ‘Aladdin Sane’ taken by your intrepid blogger… and yes, I put my LPs in plastic sleeves… and I forgot to take it off for the photo so it looks like I’m suffocating Bowie with a Dry Cleaning bag… I don’t know where it came from,…

Playlist: In Honor Of Valentine’s Day, Our Favorite (Non-“Mushy”) Songs About… Hearts
ByKenneth Corsini February 10, 2024February 12, 2024
Ok, while I’ll admit that there aren’t any “Casey Kasem Long Distant Dedication,” mushy songs on this playlist, there are some mellow and perhaps melancholy tracks… but then when it comes to “affairs of the heart,” melancholy was kinda my thing for a long time… Have no fear, there’s no Bette Midler on this thing….

Playlist: We Kick Off 2024, As Usual, Looking Back 50 Years to… 1974
ByKenneth Corsini January 4, 2024April 3, 2024
Let me start off on this, my first post of 2024, by saying a belated Happy New Year. Man, 2024… it’s a year that would have sounded like something out of science fiction when I was a kid. As usual it was a lovely Xmas followed by the Rock Chick’s immediate dismantling of all things…
