Everything in Bold is my Choice of the day. Good luck.

Here’s a quick one for you…  Geoff Farina from Karate fame doing a song about Steely Dan. Kind of.

Geoff Farina - Steely Dan

Everyone ready for CMJ???  Good weekend?  Talk to me people.

What the hell is this?  My favorite quote… ” Remember when Father Jim told us about praying.  Maybe we should try.”

So instead of moping around in my apt., recently I have decided to do something a bit more productive with my time: Transfer some of my vinyl 45’s to Mp3’s. The problem is, I have somewhere around 500 - 600 45’s, which means this is a pretty painful process for me. But while doing this, I have come across some great gems that I have completely forgotten about .. (i.e. Hard to find Nirvana, Exploding Hearts, Built to Spill, and so much more…)

Anyway, starting in November, I am going to post one letter a day maybe one or two songs a piece aka ABC’s OF VINYL. This time, the songs are only going to be up for a day or two so you have to stay on the ball … Also, most of these songs are going to be long out of print, so get them while you can.. Here is a little taste:
