Starbucks Barista acknowledging my vintage Sub-Pop baseball hat from 1993: “Cool hat. Are they still around?” All I could muster was a heavy sigh, and an affirmative nod.

Last weekend I went on a bit of a binge at Waterloo Records. Picked up some classic jazz albums that I’ve been wanting. Trying to start building up that part of my collection. Also grabbed a budget greatest hits from Divinyls on CD. Not sure how I’ve slept on their non-‘I Touch Myself’ material all these years, but there are some great tracks on this collection.
Kind of blown away by this latest Dylan release.

Apologies to my neighbors, but this long “short” work week is going to wrap up with me playing Descendents really, really loud.
I know we’re only technically through 5 months of 2023, and 6/9 alone is going to be a banner day for new releases, but, I’m definitely behind last year’s pace for new albums that are end of year best-of list worthy.
The new Bayonne album is really beautiful.
Found a couple of decent records at the antique mall, including R.E.M.’s “Eponymous”. Guy at register was like, “R.E.M….’Show me, show me, show me how you do that trick’”. Ooof.
Catching up on all of the tricot releases from the past 4-5 years that I slept on for some reason. They’ve been busy!

Happy Happy!
I’ve seen Jason Isbell 3 times now, and tonight’s show was the best of them all. Not to say the others weren’t great, but he and his band were just operating on a different level tonight. Perfect set list & amazing opener.
Seeing Jason Isbell tomorrow, and Amythyst Kiah is opening. Just listened to her cover of ‘Love Will Tear Us Apart’, and, wow! How have I not heard about her?!? She’s amazing!
Apparently, a critter of some kind decided to crawl into the inner workings of my car and die. RIP to the new car smell that I still had 16 months after getting it. Yeah, it has been that kind of week.
Happy Birthday @GritNGlitter! Hope you’re having a fantastic day today!
“Moonage Daydream” is not exactly what I was expecting. Went in blind on this one. I guess this is pretty much how a Bowie doc should be stylistically. Certainly different.
Willie Weekend started this morning on KUTX in celebration of Willie turning 90 tomorrow. Stream at kutx.org if you’re outside of the Austin City Limits.
RIP Harry Belafonte. A life well lived for sure. This is one I’ve always really enjoyed.
Teaser for the new PJ Harvey single due out on 4/26 sounds dark and drone-y. Granted, you can’t read too much from a 14 second clip. -
