    Apple Is Finally Killing iTunes

    I agree with the point you are making about Apple's propriatary music platform (because it really does suck you are limited to registering their music files to only four devices) but, as a work-around, what you can do is burn your iTunes files onto a CD. With that CD, you are now free to do...

    1984: Reckless or Born in the U.S.A.?

    While I have always like Reckless, 30 years ago I would have voted for Bruce, but Born In The USA has not aged very well with me. Ironically, the opposite is true with me re: The River -- I love it now (well, half of it anyway. ;)) So Reckless it is with four standout tracks.

    Guilty pleasures?

    I think I would also resist playing a Carpenters song around people my age for the same reason. For me, there were more schlock songs in the 70's on AM radio than there were gems. And then there were a few songs that fit into that "guilty pleasure" category. This song, for me, is one of them...

    Why is Stevie Nicks more appreciated than Christine McVie?

    Songwriting credits, vocals credits and personal politics within the band aside, I always compared the two in the 70's this way: Stevie was young, hot, had a sexy smile, dressed sexy and had expressive vocals. Christine on the other hand was a rather plain-looking, older gal who didn't seem to...

    Paul Raymond, UFO Keyboardist and Guitarist, Dies

    What a huge bummer. RIP, Paul. I will spin Strangers In The Night later today in your honor. Coincidentally, I just was at the Long Beach Arena for the Long Beach Grand Prix yesterday where I saw UFO on the Obsession tour in '79. Great show!

    Yeah! "I'm Your Man" is the song that got me going with these guys. "Deaf Forever" and "Ace Of Spades" were ok for all-out metal songs, but I love I'm Your Man's swarthy melody. So I check out their back catalogue on iTunes one fine day, and guess what? They have other songs! lolol Like "Iron...

    Best Forgotten Bands of the 70's.

    Very cool tune. It has a little bit of an Elton John vibe. I guess Michaels is a two-hit wonder! :D

    Review AC/DC - For Those About To Rock (We Salute You) (1981)

    At the UCLA Bruins and Michigan Wolverines baseball game a couple of Saturdays ago, "For Those About To Rock, We Salute You" was blaring from the P.A. system as UCLA took the field in the top of the 1st inning after the national anthem. God, it was awesome. What a relief from the previous 2...
