Girl Satchmo- Blue Beat 45s (2023) **1/2

Earth, Wind & Fire- I Am (1979) **** 
(My fave EWF album. I used to warm up to "In The Stone" before band rehearsal.)



The Doobie Brothers- Takin' It To The Streets (1976) ****
(My fave Doobies album. Listen to "Wheels Of Fortune" with headphones. The instrumental break is badass. Two drummers grooving perfectly without stepping on each other's toes.)


Bill Kirchen- Cat Out Of The Bag (2026) ***
World Party- Give It All Away: Studio Rarities By Rob/Dbs (2026) ***1/2
Nine Inch Nails- Broken (1992) ****

The Stooges- Fun House: Kevin Gray Master (1970/2026) ****
(No question, the best version I have ever heard. You can feel it in your chest. I am glad I pulled the trigger on the vinyl. Some of the reviews turned me off, but it's one of my favorites of all time and so I took a chance. It paid off. It sounded so good, I let "L.A. Blues" play until the end.)

Tom Waits- Mule Variations (1999) ****
Blue Oyster Cult- Fire Of Unknown Origin (1981) ***1/2
The Beatles- Magical Mystery Tour: MONO (1967) ****
