One way of viewing Neilโ€™s career is as a travel log of the artistโ€™s emotions. His greatness lies in never holding anything back. This was a dark period for Neil. Raw and beautiful at the same time.

This is true. Patriot ownership not withstanding this was a Super Bowl with teams from perhaps the two most liberal states in America.

The problem with this is the hypocrisy of American businesses who for decades have relied on undocumented workers as their employment base. Maybe if businesses were held accountable we wouldnโ€™t be where we are right now. But par for the course we hold only the people who need a job accountable.

The album cover for Neil Young's "Live at the Cellar Door" features a high-contrast, grainy black-and-white photograph of a brick building. It depicts a dark, narrow doorway topped by a rounded awning that bears the words "Cellar Door" in a stylized font. A stark shadow of a tree branch is cast across the right side of the wall, contributing to a minimalist, archival aesthetic. Beside a red turntable with spinning record.

All these live solo albums from Neilโ€˜s early years are just gems. Intimate settings, and just Neil with a guitar and piano. Is anything else required?

Best post Beatles album by a Beatle as far as Iโ€™m concerned. How several of these songs missed the cut in favor of Maxwellโ€™s Silver Hammer and Bungalow Bill is one of the great mysteries of our times.

A black-and-white studio photograph features three people in 1940s-style attire against a plain background. In the foreground, a woman sits with her legs in plastic casts between two crutches while a man leans against her; behind them, a woman stands holding a rifle. The band name and title, "Belle and Sebastian: Girls in Peacetime Want to Dance," appear in serif text in the upper right. Beside a red turntable with spinning record.

The cover features a dark composition with a mystical and layered aesthetic, blending organic botanical elements with celestial or alchemical symbols. A central figure in red is surrounded by floating floral motifs against a backdrop of complex, circular diagrams. Beside a red turntable with spinning record.

Why is his head resting on a bed of moss? I have no idea.

Thereโ€™s a certain class of voters who shall go nameless that every time they get mad at a republican they turn to a democrat to smack in the face.

Not that some Democrats donโ€™t need a good wake up call, but letโ€™s have some perspective here.

I own a digital version of this, but finally made my way to a vinyl release. Such a good album.

Iโ€™m with you, we need to throw some love to Nick Lowe also. I wouldnโ€™t say Lowe is underrated because he does get a lot of appreciation, but I do think he sometimes gets forgotten as one of the great performers and songwriters from that era.

Letโ€™s just say that there are far worse things than hanging out with Elizabeth Montgomery.

Bandcamp is definitely priority one for my purchases. Wish they had more jazz and classical though.
