So as you know I took a trip to Nashville last week for our anniversary. Thursday night was Springsteen and it was incredible. Friday was the Nashville Zoo and dinner. And on the third day, he shopped.
I don’t know if I can bring myself to admit how much I spent on music and [...]

There’s some music that makes you feel dumber after you’ve listened to it. I’m not sure if that’s better than music that doesn’t make you feel anything, but neither kind is a good thing. There’s also music that makes you feel smarter for listening to it. Peter Karp’s Shadows & Cracks is [...]

It didn’t take long for my #1 Album of 2007 to get dusted off in 2008!
I bought a lot of music at the end of ‘07 and wondered if that combined with a serious Beatles obsession would cause Shadows and Cracks to get sent to the bench. I have my answer.
After spending the morning [...]

Making lists and checking them twice… you only thought that time of year was over now, didn’t you? Now that 2007 is officially over – actually, it’s over in every sense, but for some reason I felt the need to use the word “officially” – I can start to look at the records that [...]

The 2008 BMA nominations are out so you know what the news is, here’s my reaction to it.
First, I’ve got a lot of music I need to get my hands on and hear before I submit my final ballot. I’m very interested in James Blood Ullmer’s album. Ullmer was nominated three or four times. [...]

I feel… good!
I feel alive. Man, last night’s interview with Peter Karp on the B-Sides Concept Album program I host could not have possibly gone any better. I had trouble going to sleep after the high of a really enjoyable conversation with an artist whose work I respect and enjoy so much. [...]

I’ve now had a chance to glance over the Grammy nominations a couple times. *Sigh* Why do I do this to myself? I guess because no one else will let me do it to them.
I know, I know… The Grammys haven’t been relative in – what’s this, the 50th annual? – fifty [...]

With all that “mandatory” listening, I couldn’t turn away when Peter Karp’s “Strange Groove” popped into my head. The rolling piano and clever word play demanded a listen. Even my iPod got into the act! The new 160GB iPod classic has some eye candy (iCandy for those of you in the Mac [...]
