2 for 2uesday
New music from Rock and Roll Hall of Famers. Cheap Trick (Rock Hall Class of 2016) have unsurprisingly another great pop/rock belter. I’m not sure how they do it but I guess that’s why they are being inducted into the Hall of Fame this year. Their first album in seven years “Bang, Zoom, Crazy…Hello” comes […]

New Music Tuesday
In case you don’t read newspapers, magazines, watch morning shows on television or late shows, cable, listen to the radio or watch videos you may not know that Coldplay has a new album out. All I have to say is “SURPRISE!” With a voice as over the top as the Coldplay publicity machine, the album I’m most […]
