Def Leppard are my favorite band of all time, so I knew I had to buy their Definitely: The Official Story of Def Leppard (2023) book eventually, it was just a matter of when I felt brave enough to part with my money again. Well, I sucked it up last year, started reading the book... Continue Reading →
Breaking Down My Spotify Wrapped 2024
It’s that time of year again, people! Spotify released their yearly wrap-ups of our music listening habits, simply titled, “Spotify Wrapped.” Like last year, the calculations aren’t entirely accurate because they came out in early December, more specifically December 4, 2024. Also, CD and vinyl listens weren’t included in the calculations. However, it’s always fun... Continue Reading →
The Best Song from Every Def Leppard Studio Album
For those of you that don’t know, Def Leppard are my favorite band of all time. I love to talk about them and I love to complain about them. It’s a love/hate relationship.

May 2024 Purchases – Some CDs and One 7″ Single
May wasn’t a drastic month for music purchases, but I found some cool stuff. I guess, I was in the mood for taking risks because I purchased a few albums from bands that are out of my comfort zone.

March 2024 Purchases – Some CDs, One Book, and One Vinyl Record
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 →
Breaking Down My Spotify Wrapped 2023
It’s that time of year again, where Spotify releases their yearly wrap-up of our music listening habits, which is called Spotify Wrapped.

Ranking the Def Leppard Studio Albums
I don’t do album ranking posts often because I don’t believe in collecting every single studio album by a band, unless it’s absolutely necessary. Heck, I don’t even own all of Def Leppard’s studio albums. But, I own enough to the point where I could rank them for a blog post and that’s what I’m... Continue Reading →
My Top 10 Album Openers
Album openers are very important because if you start off with the wrong song, listeners will lose interest and they won’t give the rest of the album a chance. Sometimes, people will buy an album because they enjoyed the first song so much that they didn’t need to hear anything else. Even if the rest... Continue Reading →
