taylor swift - cardigan (studio-2020) i gotta admit, taylor is getting damn good

Hipster that I am, I can't believe I'm posting this, but ... this is a quality tune. Very emotionally affecting. It's actually better just listening to the words w/o watching the video, imho.

cate le bon - are you with me now? (studio-2013) a groovy tune ... about losing your mum ...

I'm guessing ... to some kind of smoking-related ailment.

At least, I think that's what it's about.

Anyways, friggin awesome tune.

the pretty reckless w. kim thayil and matt cameron - only love can save me now (studio-2021)

Just released on 2/11, and as one would expect, it's pretty Soundgarden-y

Not entirely sure WHY I love this 2013 tune by Phosphorescent but I think it's the Glamrock groove

it's got going on ... the wicked wah-wah guitar ... and the overall swagger ...

it's definitely NOT because I have any clue what Matthew is singing about here ... or even what he's saying.

but I'm pretty sure it's damn cool.

and he plays everything on this tune but the bass, and self-produced the album. which is cool.

Got a lost classic from an 80's Irish band for ya ... top song, I promise ...

Especially if you like U2-kinda music

I still have this CD from the 80's in fact. Every song is good.

High volume recommended

Hey, if you've missed the band Camera Obscura, this album is pretty dang close, from 2018

And c'mon who among us hasn't missed Camera Obscura?

robyn - dancing on my own (studio-2010) for any of my homies that are alone right now

airborne toxic event - come on out (studio-2020) delightfully 1980's-style

Crank this, and get your Friday night started right

robert palmer - every kinda people (studio-1979) haven't heard this in forever

Two classics from Midnight Special ... Sanford Townsend Band and Manfred Mann
