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 →
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 →
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. I also picked up a special item for my Def Leppard collection, which I didn’t even... Continue Reading →
It’s that time of year again, where Spotify releases their yearly wrap-up of our music listening habits, which is called Spotify Wrapped. It’s obviously inaccurate because they release them in late November / early December, which is technically not the end of the year, and they don’t include music listening habits through CD and/or vinyl....

I haven’t done one of these posts in three years, but suddenly, I had the urge to do this after finding a song I’ve been searching for over a year, which we’ll get to later on! It’s pretty self-explanatory; I’ll talk about my favorite songs from Fall 2023. These aren’t just rock songs, though. They’re... Continue Reading →
The album closer is just as important as the album opener because if the last song sucks, listeners may feel disappointed, like they wasted time on that one record that ended on a sour note. This a follow-up to a previous post I did titled, My Top 10 Album Openers. Now, I’ll focus on my... Continue Reading →
One of the greatest southern rock bands of all time, Lynyrd Skynyrd, are celebrating the 50th anniversary of their iconic debut album, (Pronounced 'Lĕh-'nérd 'Skin-'nérd), which was released on August 13, 1973. This is a band that has been through hell and back. Whenever success came knocking at their door, it was followed by tragedies... Continue Reading →
I’ve heard the name Lynyrd Skynyrd throughout my whole life, but I didn’t dive into their catalog until after Gary Rossington’s death. While I love their classic stuff with original singer Ronnie Van Zant, I also really dig their songs with Johnny Van Zant, Ronnie’s younger brother. However, Lynyrd Skynyrd’s decision to reform and carry... Continue Reading →
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 →
