May Piper-Summer Breeze Sun on the skin, relaxing like life will last forever, drinking some pop, begging for winter to never come again. Piper’s Summer Breeze evokes these feeling perfectly in its ten breezy,funky tracks. A really consistent record, everything pieces together perfectly. Records like this makes all the digging worth it. The best city…

’83 To The Bone: February, March, April Albums
Picking up where we left off, this next pack of albums has a lot of favorites, but also a lot of stuff I’m pretty indifferent about. February U2-War Spending a lot of my young adult life around punk scenes, I’ve always seen so much scorn for this band. On one hand I get it(How dare…

And here we are. The last ten for the year. Let’s see how this all wraps up. 10.Eurythmics- Sweet Dreams(Are Made Of This) This was the break out year for The Eurythmics and they really hit the mark with this one. I never realized until now that the “violin” solo is really just another synth.…

’83 To The Bone:Billboard Top 100 Part 3
It’s been a while, but I’m back at it. This was an interesting crop of tracks, that’s for sure. 49.Michael Jackson(ft Paul McCartney)- The Girl Is Mine One of the duds from Thriller. It’s just so dog gone corny. It’s amusing to picture the type of girl who would be interested in the both of…

’83 To The Bone: Billboard Top 100 Pt 2
I’m back again to explore more of the year’s popular music. Another interesting bunch of tracks here. 79.Sammy Hagar-Your Love Is Driving Me Crazy I kinda like this one. It’s got a nice little riff driving(Heh.)it. A suprise,for sure, I’ve never been a big Hagar fan. 78.Debarge-All The Love This is a pretty swinging R&B…

New Fifty-Screwed Part 3
Back again. This time with 5 titles. I’ll be honest here, with some of these books being 16 issues long, this has been the hardest wave of books yet. With some of these books, I was just begging for them to be over. Still I press on. Blue Beetle by Tony Bedard, Ig Guara Jamie…
