On February 3, 1959, musicians Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens, and “The Big Bopper” died in a plane crash and that day became known as the day the music died.

McCartney II (1980)
Produced by Paul McCartney There is something is to be said about the McCartney albums. McCartney was Paul’s first solo album released in 1970 and 10 years later ironically when Wings was ending he once again recorded a sparse album at home. The main feeling behind these solo projects is that Paul is just having…… Continue reading McCartney II (1980)

The concert started at exactly 8:30 pm when the band Mr. Scary took the stage to open up for Stryper. I had never heard them before but they sounded…… Continue reading Stryper: Calling on you tour 2022

Julian Lennon: Everything Changes (2011)
Produced by Julian Lennon, Mark Spiro, and Grant Ransom It is unfair that many times an artist has a famous father he is measured against the works of the father. It must be hard for Julian when he is the son of John Lennon, a man part of the greatest musical legacy with The Beatles…… Continue reading Julian Lennon: Everything Changes (2011)
Who Is Harry Nilsson (and Why is everybody talking about him?) (2006)
Directed by John Scheinfeld This an artist that I came to know of because he worked with John Lennon on a song from his Walls and Bridges album. When it comes to documentaries about artists, I don’t always need to be a fan to want to see and know about that person’s story. I am…… Continue reading Who Is Harry Nilsson (and Why is everybody talking about him?) (2006)

He is one of my favorite songwriters. With such classics as Piano Man, Just the way you…… Continue reading Billy Joel: Turnstiles (1976)
Eddie Vedder “Earthling” (2022)
Produced by Andrew Watt Eddie Vedder since the first Pearl Jam record is one of my favorite singers and songwriters. A good strategy to keep the band going is that they take time to pursue personal projects and then return to Pearl Jam. Here is the third solo record by Eddie and for me, it’s…… Continue reading Eddie Vedder “Earthling” (2022)
