Mr. Baez said...: I'm totally digging this section of BW. So much good stuff now playing. I hadn't listened to Fotheringay in ages. Thanks for that. And that Mike Viola is fantastic, and you're right on mark regarding the Verlaine references.; January 16, 2026 at 3:59 PM

Now Playing 4.2

"Now Playing" started out as nothing more than me writing down what I listen to everyday. It was another way to start a conversation. It took some time to take off, and now has been getting a good number of hits and comments. To be clear, Now Playing is NOT me grading records. It's me grading the listening experience. I created a Pete Townshend playlist that consisted of 15 songs that I love, so why did it get three and a half stars instead of four? Maybe the sequencing. Maybe I wasn't in the mood. Who knows? Robert Palmer's "Drive" recently came out on vinyl for the first time and man, did it sound great! Four & a half stars! I still like five Robert Palmer albums more. Got it?
