Winter, Women, & Work: The Doors, The Everly Brothers, and Jim Croce!!!
I think that one of the best songs about Winter has been pretty much forgotten. My favorite is “Wintertime Love” by The Doors. [Hall of Fame] This isn’t an official video from the band, but it feels right! Even though … Continue reading

Tattoos, Hope, and January: Weird Al Yankovic, Paul McCartney, and The Decemberists!!!
I don’t think there’s anything that Weird Al Yankovic [Hall of Fame] can’t do. Here he takes B.o.B.’s song, “Nothin’ on You,” and turns it into a song about a getting too much ink. I really like this trippy, “Another … Continue reading

Christmas Eve Fun: Deborah Allen, Jonathan Coulton, and Joe Bonamassa!!!
I always thought Deborah Allen looked pretty cute and hot in this sexy little Christmas song, “Rockin’ Little Christmas!” Still sounds pretty good and the sax solo is still pretty cool!: “Chiron Beta Prime” by Jonathan Coulton is still a … Continue reading

Rock and Soul Action: The Honeyrunners, Eric Burdon & The Animals, and…The Beatles!!!
Ok. I like to keep things upbeat and positive, but be forewarned that the next video, may not be what you’re used to seeing here. But it is impressive. Not since “Willie” by Nora Jane Struthers earlier in the year, … Continue reading
