RIP Jimmy Buffett.

For all that he could seem like the stereotype of the multi-millionare baby boomer, he wrote a lot of good songs -- some surprisingly sensitive, some genuinely funny.

And anyone who could get a song about burgers into the Top 40 is okay by me.

Tom Petty, "Full Moon Fever" and "Wildflowers." One a short and sweet party album, the other a sprawling work of introspection -- both equally brilliant!

Love both of these so much, but "Wildflowers" is my pick of the two. I need to get the Super Deluxe version, which includes the entire intended double album that Petty intended it to be, plus demos and live versions. The live version of "It's Good to be King", which clocks in at around 12 minutes, iis a must-have, IMO!!!


Still "Lardy" to my friends!

Ooh, thanks for the heads-up about the Super Deluxe Wildflowers, Lardy! Will definitely check it out.

It makes me very happy that you and EDE both love those two Tom Petty albums as much as I do!

Getting in the mood for the season:

Morte Macabre, Symphonic Holocaust

The sole album by 90s skogsprog supergroup consisting of members of Anekdoten and Landberk, it's apparently mostly covers of music from European horror soundtracks, plus a couple of originals.

Eryk, I love Broken Peach, believe it or not. They've done some great covers.

I've been listening to Caravan Palace lately, Cam Cole, and doing deep dives but nothing really stands out from the dives lately.

Lots of Electro Swing lately. Don't know why but the different instruments, the different arrangements and styles, they just grab me. I've always liked horn sections in music, especially the more nasty and gritty. And yet the new Swing stuff, while retaining the nasty grit, seem to make it a lot more musical.

Oh hell, don't ask me, I don't know what I'm trying to say.

James Taylor's 1985 album "That's Why I'm Here." Best know for the title track and the absolutely wonderful cover of Buddy Holly's Everyday.

You don't need to know it's his first post-rehab album to enjoy it, but I think that helps explain why it's his best since the early 1970s. In my opinion, at least.

Warning to vegans and vegetarians: avoid Mona, a cheap joke in bad taste. I'm offended by the song, and I'm a carnivore!

For the first time in a long time, I turned the lights off, put on some quality headphones and listened to Peter Gabriel's soundtrack for "The Last Temptation of Christ"

I love Debbie Peterson & Vicki Peterson. I sort of like Michael Steele. I hate Susannah Hoffs.

And, somewhere in the middle, I like the Bangles.

Van Morrison, "Beautiful Vision," from 1982.

A decade after the "end" of his "Classic Era," the Northern Irish mystic made an album as great or greater than previous ones. I rate it even higher than "Astral Weeks!"

Joni Mitchell, "Miles of Aisles," from 1974.

One of the few live albums I can still listen to, it has aged like fine wine. The perfect summation of her early work, it's got most of the obvious hits and beloved deep cuts, along with superb deeper cuts and even a couple of excellent songs not yet recorded at the time. I happen to think that Mitchell's trilogy of studio albums immediately following "Miles of Aisles" -- "The Hissing of Summer Lawns," "Hejira," and "Don Juan's Reckless Daughter" -- is her best and most audacious work, with the live album as a raucous farewell party for the flaxen-haired folk-rock queen persona that, unfortunately, a lot of more casual Joni fans just refuse to let go of.

Here's to 50 more years of spins! cheers

R.I.P. Jimmy Hastings, legendary winds player most associated with the Canterbury sound (particularly his brother Pye's band Caravan), but who can be found on albums from Brian Ferry to Chris Squire to Radiohead.

So here's a thing I've been into lately. If you're at all a fan of the *general* music scene, I highly recommend the Soundup Podcast hosted by Alan Light and Mark Goodman. They used to host a show on SiriusXM called Debatable and would talk about all kinds of music news and then go into a lot of cool details about the music, artists or both.

They do a twice weekly show where the second show gets to have audience participation (which I may or may not have experienced recently...)

Anyway here's the website and you can check your podcatcher to get the podcast itself: https://sounduppod.com/

RIP to Mike Pinder, last of the original lineup of the Moody Blues and a key player in the classic lineup that produced their "Core 7" albums. He didn't write the hits, but his songs were usually the deepest and most interesting. He's also notable for introducing John Lennon to the mellotron, which resulted in "Strawberry Fields Forever".

Anyway, here's a favorite tune: Lost in a Lost World

EDE, was Pinder the one who wrote "Om?"

And thanks for that bit of data about introducing Lennon to the mellotron -- I absolutely LOVE "Strawberry Fields Forever" (and, in fact, I've been spinning my CD of "Magical Mystery Tour" once a day since last weekend! Synchronicity!)

Yeah, "Om" was his. His Wikipedia page has a complete list of his songs.

I should also have pointed out that he was usually the one who recited the poetry written by drummer Graeme Edge ("Breathe deep the gathering gloom...")
