The fine folks over at Popdose have a very cool download available now over at Bootleg City. I can vouch for its coolness, because I sent it to them. Back in the day (oooh, haaaaazy memories coming up,) head Popdoser Jeff Giles had a post on his old site Jefitoblog featuring a couple of discs […]

The Very Best of Don Henley – In Stores June 16th
How big of a Don Henley fan am I? Well, there was that time a few years ago in 2005 that I drove 3+ hours to Detroit to see Henley, on tour that summer for a limited run of dates with Stevie Nicks. I bought a ticket for 100 bucks in the parking lot, watched […]
You can call me Rob Gordon…
For a few years in the mid to late 80s I was part of the record store culture. And, if you ever worked music retail you know that High Fidelity wasn’t too far off the mark when it came to pegging us music geeks. From early 1986 to late 1987, I worked at a rather […]

ZZ Top – Live From Texas
They’re baaack! Full of blues, boogie and an ice-blue stage set, ZZ Top is back on the scene with its first full-length live album called Live From Texas. I know it came out in 2008 and you’ve probably seen clips of the DVD on VH1 Classic already but I figure what’s the hurry? They’ve been […]
