Awaiting your official review of Look For Your Mind!. Your listening experience suggests this might be a favorite. Perhaps time to add the band to the BW Album Guide? :) Still very much enjoying the recent Claypool-Lennon Delirium album.
Thanks for all you do, sir

New Lemon Twigs! New Neil Diamond (which I had no idea)! Were you up at midnight? :)

Ahh, the Neil Diamond album contains outtakes from his Home Before Dark sessions from 2008. I'll def look forward to checking it out. Will you listen to the Midge Ure?

Sal Nunziato said...

No interest in Midge Ure. He ruined two of my favorite bands.

Can't wait to get my grubby little hands on the new Twigs album.

Funky Skull! Big fun. Maybe not something I'l listen to many more times, but unique to say the least. Crazy, man, crazy!

Concur. Thanks for updating the Guide. The latest is so good. :)
