Disclaimer: For those that haven’t seen Inside Out 2 (2024), I’m sorry for all the spoilers that are about to unfold in this review. I wasn’t against the idea of Inside Out 2, but I had my doubts, like with any sequel for a beloved film. I’ve only seen the original once and that was... Continue Reading →
I just want to preface this review by saying I received a PDF copy of Crime of the Century (2024) by the author and these are strictly my thoughts and opinions.

As mentioned in a previous Lynyrd Skynyrd post, I’ve heard the name all my life, but didn’t dive into the band’s catalog until after guitarist Gary Rossington’s passing; like a few months later. This past March, we had the one-year death anniversary, which is morbid to think about. But since then, Lynyrd Skynyrd has been... Continue Reading →

I don't do music purchases blog posts often because as mentioned in my November 2023 Purchases blog post, all of my CDs are usually from Amazon. Thankfully, March was a special month because Judas Priest released Invincible Shield (2024) on March 8 and The Black Crowes put out Happiness Bastards (2024) on March 15, a... Continue Reading →
Think back to 2015, when The Black Crowes called it quits for supposedly the final time. Who knew we would get another studio album from these guys? I’m not even sure if the Robinson brothers knew they’d release a new record in 2024. But you know what, props to them for putting their issues behind... Continue Reading →
Not going to lie, my first exposure to Free was through American Idol, when David Cook performed “All Right Now” during the semi-finals of season seven; I was 9 years old back then. To this day, it’s still one of my favorite performances from the show. “All Right Now” is a classic, for a reason,... Continue Reading →
