I had a great chat today with Arjen Anthony Lucassen about "Songs No One Will Hear," his first solo album in more than a decade. Can't wait to bring you that story!

Next up: Queen - News of the World (1977). The first Queen album I ever owned (the original copy is long gone). Still my favorite album by them. What a great showcase for Freddie’s range as a vocalist. The artwork is haunting. #VinylRecords #VinylAddict #VinylCollector

Sunday spin: β€œAgainst the Wall” (2021) by Scottish rockers Mason Hill. As good a debut album as I’ve heard since the turn of the century. Sounds great, and it looks great on translucent yellow vinyl.

New MRC! I spoke with author Andrew Wild about his new book about the 80s British prog rock scene, "A Playground of Broken Hearts." He shared great stories, discussed how he told the story of 6 key bands, teased his next book project, and more!

I am extremely saddened to hear Strawbs founding member Dave Cousins has passed away. I had the honor of interviewing Dave on multiple occasions, and he was always thoughtful and generous with his time. RIP to a legend.

If these guys are the good ones
I don't want to know the bad
You wonder how it happened
They just picked it up from dad
While faded old glory is hanging like a rag
