Re: Charlie Watts RIP
I have always assumed that once Charlie was gone, the Rolling Stones would cease to be. Yes, Mick and Keith and Ronnie are still here, but Charlie Watts is the heart of the Stones. I can't see them going on, or wanting to. They're probably obligated to play out this tour, but after that? I'd be sho...

Re: Biggest Fan Songs - August 2021
I thought you weren't into punk. Or are the Ramones the exception? No, I like lots of punk and new wave through like 1983. It's Alternative that I can't stand. In particular, I thought if Bruce liked any punk band, it would be the Ramones, who at times sounded like an early '60s band gone punk, wit...

Re: AM Favorite Songs of All Time, 2021 Edition, Extended Lists!
I just put my Top 1000 on CDs for the car. The last disc I did, which is the first disc in the order that they get played, goes from #1024 to #997. This occurred because of the times, there's 80 minutes on each disc (actually a maximum of 79:44). I had gotten to #996 on the prior disc. The list only...

Billy Vera likes the kind of stuff I like. He's written liner notes for a bunch of albums of 1950s R&B material, and even produced some of those compilations himself, where he picked out the tracks that would be used.

Docked hard for "My baby does the hanky panky" being the intro,
It would pack the dance floor in MY DJ days in the early to mid 1980s, 15-20 years after it was a hit.
