Umm, do yourself a favor and download this brilliant compilation of George Harrison’s Beatles output over here at Never Get Out of the Boat! What more wisdom could you need this weekend? You have all the albums already but you never pulled all the George songs and arranged them in chronological order like Willard did. [...]
Well, the first show of the long-anticipated Van Halen reunion tour started last night in Charlotte, NC and God said “It was good”! The reports on Wolfgang have been positive too, although it would be that much cooler with Mikey in the reunion. The setlist looks amazing and the boys are in [...]

So, RT’s gonna be starting its seventh round later in the week after a short hiatus. But in the meantime, here’s some answers to some of the more befuddling question of Round 6. And a big congrats to Sue on being the first person to whose name does not start with an ‘M’ [...]
Well, excuse me if I’ve been a little slow at blogging this past week. I just got a new 160 gig iPod and I’ve been relentlessly adding music to it… and photos. I’ve got 40 gigs filled so far. That was the full storage capacity of my old one. [...]
What instrument does Jim Capaldi play?
What Alice Cooper LP is shaped like a student’s desk?
That’s right! From all the guilty lists that you all posted, I chose one from Dave’s to be the next Case for Collins entry today. This one just spoke to me especially since Michael McDonald has made somewhat of a comeback in popularity, although much of it seems to be for irony’s sake; [...]

*I thought this pic was pretty hilarious and apropos
All right now. I’ve got a seriously deep cut here from an equally deep band. I have recently over the past several months, fallen in love with the self-titled album by a short-lived band from the late-60’s called Mighty Baby. They are sometimes described as sort of the Grateful Dead or Buffalo [...]

What was The Slits first album (1979)?
All right…coming off of that first edition of The Case for (Phil) Collins, I’ve been thinking a lot about what people consider ‘guilty pleasures’. I have a hard time using the word ‘guilty’ when it comes to appreciating music. It’s either pleasurable to you in some way or it’s not. So, I [...]

Who recorded an 8:05 minute version of “Roll Over Beethoven”?
Well, I just found out that jazz keyboardist/composer/legend Joe Zawinul passed away at the age of 75 earlier today. Joe is best known for pioneering the use of electric pianos in jazz music, along with Herbie Hancock, and was instrumental in the creation of jazz fusion. He played on Miles Davis’ classic fusion [...]
I found a few old pics that I took a few hours after the attacks, from the Promenade. My thoughts are with those lives that were lost that day and their loved ones. One day, may all beings live in happiness and peace…

Pieces of Eight (197
(*Picture is Infinite Eight by David Friedman, not that one, but this one.)
Honestly who gives a fuck about the VMA’s, Mo and I got to see a great hard-rockin’ show Saturday night with KT and Michael at beautiful Nikon Jones Beach Theater in Wantagh, Long Island. It was a double bill featuring Dio with Black Sabbath (currently touring as Heaven & Hell, probably because of Sharon [...]
