If I l was in the house band for some funky, sleazy rock club/bar with a 4am license, this would always close out the last set of the night:

I recently found about these guys and this song inspired me to get a phaser and overdrive for my bass. I'm not learning the song but I sure do crank it a lot. I did figure out a lot of Sheep by Pink Floyd when I got my phaser. 🐑

I've been thinking a lot about "I Want to Stroll Over Heaven with You" as recorded by Alan Jackson.

They played that song at my both of grandparents funerals amd the 1st time it was a sad song when my grandpa passed, but when my grandma passed the e.otions I felt were completely a 180.

I discovered Mel McDaniel's song "Stand Up" from the movie The Howling Part VII. The song is much better than the movie. I'm by no means an 80s country music type guy, but this song has a crazy good backbeat, a super catchy hook, and is an all around ear worm.






If you're brave enough to watch the version in The Howling VII . . .

This is another song I am obsessed with. When artists come back after an absence, it's often a "that's nice, shame about the song..." scenario. Not here. This stands with his early best, but with the added weight of his life, and all it's good and bad, to make it resonate. It could be about a past love, it could be about his kids, it could be about his relationship to songwriting, but in the end, it's brilliant.

This song is ridiculous ear-worm-y, even though I can't understand any of the lyrics. (They're in Finnish, of which I speak about four words. Apparently the title translates to "Iron Man Is Rusting".)

It’s a little long lead-in but very cool story and a very cool song.

Ive been stuck in a ton of 80s-90s lately due to Its a clown world sh*t show out there in the world anymore. 80-90s music makes me forget about it lol.

A lot of Robin Trower recently.
