I'm sailing along to this as I drink my dark and stormy.

Chandlerman, I always think about you now when I make one of these. Good ole sailing days!

Thanks for that Rob - it's been a while...

And Happy Thanksgiving! 🦃

Right back at you Scott! Have a wonderful day!

Jack White - No Name album

it's a ripper, every tune.

That is amazing. It has that sound of something my friend Sean and I could have written in our twenties. I mean ... but didn't. Obviously.

I immediately started looking for the tour - but the closest it gets is Hollywood. See you May Greasy....

It doesn't get much more yacht rock-y than that! I'm diggin' it.

Today's been weird.

A coworker and I were talking about tv shows we grew up with, and he mentioned "Knight Rider". Unfortunately, he had never heard any of Hasselhoff's musical works. I showed him this :

He's crying. I think I may have broken his childhood.

If you really wanna break his childhood, show him the drunk cheeseburger rant.

As penance for sharing that, here's what I've been listening to.

Love the keyboard (synthesizer?) in this song.

I asked my daughter if she heard of them and she said, "Yeah. I know them." My kid is way too cool for me.

Not a fan of Billie's....but this kid is something else!

O.S.

Still can't watch this without crying.

Great one, goosebumps right when he started.

I grew up listening to Narada albums and David Lanz's 'Behind the Waterfall' is still my go to happy place song. Brilliant pianist and songwriter.

There's so much good music made in Nashville, and none of it is country.

She even has a song named for my favorite local dive bar, Wilburn Street Tavern.

Man, what an underrated guitar band. I first heard this one ... geez. 2002. Long story. A friend died. Yaddah, yaddah. But oh, the guitar in this song. The overdrive from that big hollow body is amazing.

JBacklund ... do you by any chance know Todd Nichols? He also does custom guitars, apparently.

Fantastic!

No, don't know of him, but have at least heard of the band.

I'm the guy upstream of the guitar producing business, and have never built a guitar in my life, leaving that part to those capable of taking my ideas and bringing something playable from them into the physical world.

On my end of the process, my guitar design creations never get beyond the artistic/digital concept stage, but do evolve into very refined renditions that 'real' guitars can be created from.

This image of my model 1500 would be an example of a proposed new model in the form of a refined concept illustration, and a new design in the early stages of development...

Dang, that is a beautiful thing. It's like a guitar Robert Heinlein would have played. If, in fact, he played guitar. It has Atom Punk all over it.

Nothing like hearing some Paul Simon and instantly your riding in the back of the station wagon about 1976 again.

I cannot hear that song without this in my head "50 Ways to Love Your Lever".

That Driver 8 cover is a tasty morsel.

I have a weird relationship with Toad tWS. The old bitter punk rocker in me thinks they are too feely-feely for me to enjoy, but then I always appreciate the musicianship and craft of their work. I never seek them out, but then I never turn them off when one of their songs is playing. Thanks for posting those.
