Great to see Love, Burns’ ‘Dear Carol (feat. Rachel Evans)’ in the Shindiggin’ section of the new edition of Shindig! Magazine. If it’s hot on their turntable, then it should be on yours too! Grab a mag, and the record, and find out!

The Françoise Hardy LP is a longtime favorite.

That’s fairly stereotypical thinking though, something that’s always been there, as long as I’ve been alive, anyway. But of course America is more than that stereotype, and much, much more than Maga. Unfortunately, there’s dumb asses everywhere. I speak as an immigrant from the UK.

Oh, man! I’m sorry to hear that. Congratulations to you and Lisa for 16 fab years and a ton of great releases.

It was Shatner’s nickname during a difficult period in the 70s.

Have they done it from other sources? A friend of mine in Japan works for Guinness World Records. She was on TV everywhere giving the oldest woman in the world an award.

Very underrated group! I especially love when they sing their own songs. Weirdly, or not, they make me think of The Cake, how their originals were also superior to the covers I imagine their producers made them do. Lovely Baroque pop both!

I had no idea that the Josef K song Apple Bush is an Alice Cooper cover! How did I miss that? This is pretty great youtu.be/WzfwhhRsGgc?...

Really need journalists to push back on this bullshit. When they say this, just ask them point blank: "Are you saying that because one Latino man committed a murder, another Latino man deserves a life sentence? Do you think all Latino men interchangeable?"
