Well, if you think you haven’t known the “hits,” wait until you get a load of THIS! Wow, I can’t believe this song is 40 years old now. I haven’t known it that long, but I’m thankful for every moment I have known it. This song...

Today’s victim of a plane disaster isn’t well-known in America, and that’s a crying shame. However, I think our Canadian myLotters will know at least his name. And I know that @TheHorse knows his music because he...

Yeah, it’s early. But I went to bed really early, too. Another day, another myLotter, and another bunch of cops on our tail. Meanwhile, I’m not forgetting the countdown of songs that were banned. We’re in the top...

Oh, look, a baseball work stoppage. I can’t see them worrying about money after signing some 36-year-old pitcher to a $44 million a year contract. Anyway, we’ll sail to an island removed from baseball. This...

Along with favorites with “fly” in the title I’m doing a companion countdown of songs with an airplane theme. Today’s song doesn’t have “plane” in the title, and you may not immediately think of it as an “airplane” song, but...

People nowadays hardly sing or listen to folk music. It was such a great experience to watch and listen to folk songs as a kid. Today people have started mixing music with different musical genres and experiment with it. I think...

July 1 was Canada Day, and I do hope our friends to the north had a great celebration. I’ve been celebrating with music, which is about all I know how to do. Tomorrow I’ll count down ten favorites by Canadian artists, but for...

So yesterday it was country music. Today’s Canadian musician spotlight, in honor of Canada Day earlier this month, turns on someone that most Americans haven’t heard of, or barely remember. That’s okay. I’ve seen him live, met...

Horse Jr. and I went cycling the other day. He is still into Minecraft and Matchbox cars. But I remember having crushes on girls when I was 11-years-old.
Only two years later, I would go to parties where we would play "spin the...

I am not even motivated enough to explain my lack of motivation over the last three days, but three days away from Play it Again, Sam, is enough, motivation be damned. As always, Play it Again, Sam, is a two part discussion...

I couldn't review one of these wonderful books without reviewing the other. As part of my research I discovered a second book, this one a compilation of Lee's writing. As well as a talented singer, Lee Hays was also a talented and...

Even though it didn't fit, a late night listen to "Solitude" by Denver goth band Caustic Soul inspired this latest theme, my Favorite "Silent" Songs series, featuring songs with "silent," or "silence" in the title. We are at #9,...

Friday night, my dearly beloved and I along with some friends saw Arlo Guthrie in concerto (for those born after 1975, I've included a Wikipedia link). He didn't play "Alice's Restaurant," but he played some new stuff that sounded...
