Before I head out for some fun I’ll say happy birthday to Boz Scaggs! He turns 82 today. (Side note: his new album, Detour, is some fine jazz singing.) I’ll also remind you that it’s only ten days until Sir Paul turns 84....

Every once in a while, something good actually emerges from social media. Like The Warning. They’ve been blowing up, basically, since 2014, when, at the ages of 9-14, the members of The Warning posted a You Tube video of...

Celebrating Sir Paul: Coming Up

Four Walls @FourWalls (86583) • United States 5 Jun

Oh, is this one going to give you a headache to keep up with. Not the song, and definitely not the video, but the release name history. I highly recommend this video, whether you like the song or not. It’s one of my...

As you peruse through these songs and think, “DANG, couldn’t you come up with better songs?!”, remember it is just one hillbilly’s opinion. I’ll admit right up front that a lot of the songs I like, both by Paul McCartney...

Ah, welcome to day four of the month-long countdown, the day where I lose everyone, or have you pining for last month when I didn’t have a countdown. Oh, you think this is bad, wait until we get to Paul’s song...

Keep On Truckin': An original country song I wrote in 2020

Tyler Zahnke @mininifty (161) • Belmont, Michigan 2 Jun

I wrote this song right when COVID hit. This was sung by someone in Jim Cristaldi's group, maybe even Cristaldi himself, but as you can see from the video title, I got the songwriting credit since I wrote both the melody and...
