Cheap Trick- In Another World (2021)- ****

Judy Mowatt- Only A Woman (1982)-***1/2

(All Music inexplicably rates this higher than "Black Woman." This record is sweet, but "Black Woman" is one of the greatest reggae records of all time. )

Hermeto Pascoal E Grupo- S/T (1982)- ****

(Hard to categorize, other than wow! Like if Sun Ra made a Tropicalia record. Not a boring second to be found.)

The Divine Comedy- Rainy Sunday Afternoon (2025)- ****

(Lovely new record.)

Los Straitjackets- Somos Los Straitjackets (2025)-***1/2
Joe Walsh- But Seriously, Folks...(1978)- ****
Judas Priest- Painkiller (1990)- ***
Etta James- Tell Mama: The Complete Muscle Shoals Sessions (1968/2001)- ***1/2
Todd Rundgren- Initiation, Side One (1975)- ****

Paul Westerberg- RKCNDY, Seattle, WA, July 17, 1993 (1993)- ****
(An amazing set list perfectly captured, it's like you are in the room. Great soundtrack for a Friday night. Grab it while you can HERE.)
