In the almost five years that I’ve had this Addicted to Vinyl thing, I don’t think I’ve ever gotten around to posting a “best of” list. Part of that comes down to how the musical listening habits (for a lot of folks) have shifted to files and streaming services. Certainly, there’s the convenience of carrying […]
Tag: Making A List
Your favorite live album.
The folks at The Top 13 posted a list this week of their picks for the top 13 “essential live albums.” Being a list lover, The Top 13 website has become a recent favorite of mine, even though the thought of assembling my own personal top 13 list of essential live albums sends my head […]
Eric Clapton – Don’t Think Twice, It’s Alright
My man Judd is at it again – he’s got a good discussion going, talking about his favorite live tunes, and he slipped one of my all-time favorites onto his list. To me, Eric Clapton’s version of Dylan’s classic “Don’t Think Twice, It’s Alright” (recorded at the Bob Dylan 30th Anniversary Tribute Concert) is the […]

All that heaven will allow in 200 songs or less

Everywhere I look, all I see is Metallica
I have to say that the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction weekend here in Cleveland is off to a good start for me personally. Last night was an EPIC night of fun for this music fan, and I’ll fill you in on all or most of the details after the weekend is over. […]
The Great Metallica Debate
As a publicity whore, I was happy when Scene Magazine got in touch and asked if I’d be interested in debating various Metallica topics, leading up to their pending induction on Saturday night into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Brian and I will be in attendance for the induction ceremonies, and I think […]
Hey Cleveland! Here are the details for Record Store Day at Music Saves + Black Sabbath vinyl details + more!
I made my way over to Music Saves on Thursday night to pick up a couple of things: They had ordered Ready For The Flood per my request, the newish album from principal Jayhawks members Mark Olson and Gary Louris. Ready For The Flood is the first new studio album from the duo since Olson’s […]
