Everything That’s Mine – Foxtide Another find of a forgotten song in my library, thanks to shuffle; Foxtide brings us a surfy barn burner comes at you fast, with the intro being far and away my favorite part of the song. I love the bass running to kick things off and the accents of the Read more

Oh Well – Fleetwood Mac Before Stevie Nicks, there was Peter Green. The original Fleetwood Mac was incredibly different from what they would evolve into, and I don’t think there is any point in debating which is better, because both iterations made great music, but both with such different sounds it really comes down to Read more

Fallin’ to Pieces – Rob Thomas Rob Thomas and his album …Something to Be have such a nostalgic feel for me; I don’t know if one of my parents had this on CD or if these songs just got that much airplay on the radio during the early 2000s, but these songs immediately take me Read more

Staring at The Sun – TV on the Radio Apologies for the lack of posting lately, trying to get back in the rhythm of everything. TV on the Radio is a kick-ass rock band from Brooklyn formed in 2001. My knowledge of their catalog is pretty limited, but their song “Staring at the Sun” is Read more

Black Hole Sun (Cover) – Peter Frampton An incredible cover of Soundgarden‘s “Black Hole Sun” by Peter Frampton; I love his take, swapping vocals for guitar and adding a “vocal solo” with his signature talk box. Absolutely killer performance by a very underappreciated (at least lately) guitar player. Link – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nU8yuWddw0E Read more

The crunch is perfect and it’s just one of those ones that makes you feel like a badass when you’re listening to it. The opening 30 Read more

What A Fool Believes – The Doobie Brothers Happy April Fool’s Day! I had the pleasure of seeing the Doobie Brothers about a year ago, and it was one of the most fun concerts I have ever attended. The band has certainly still got it, and Michael McDonald is still out of this world vocally. Read more

Fadeaway- BoDeans I think my dad introduced me to the BoDeans when I was in high school, with this song, “Fadeaway,” as well as their biggest hit, “Closer To Free.” I don’t know a ton about the BoDeans themselves, but they’re from Wisconsin and randomly made an appearance on the Netflix show, The Ranch, which Read more

Hard Times – Paramore Haley Williams is one of the coolest frontwomen of all time, bringing an awesome energy and great vocals to all their songs. Traditionally, I think Paramore is considered a rock band, but like many rock acts of the 2000s (Fall Out Boy comes to mind), their sound has evolved over time, Read more
