My Favorite Albums of 2025*
Well, if anyone cares, here is a list of my favorite albums of 2025. I don’t like the “best of” terminology because I acknowledge I’ve missed a lot of great stuff. Also, I didn’t stick to a “top 10” — there are actually 14 entries below. But these are the releases I enjoyed the most during the past 12 months. *I am going to start off with two honorable mentions because one came out in late 2024…

My Favorite Songs of 2023
When I posted the 2022 version of this list, I promised to share more on this blog in 2023. Well, that obviously didn’t happen. This is my first time back here since then. But I do have an idea for a podcast that I would like to produce in 2024, so hopefully you will see more of me in the coming year. Anyway, this list represents a very small portion of the “best of 2023” personal playlist I’ve…

My favorite albums and EPs of 2022 I’ve already published my Favorite Songs of 2022. Now, it’s time for my favorite albums of the year. An Hour Before It’s Dark – Marillion An Hour Before It’s Dark – Marillion I have been a fan of UK prog rock legends Marillion since the mid-80s and still remember the thrill of seeing them live at The Stone Pony in Asbury Park, NJ, in 1990.

My Favorite Songs of 2022
Welcome back to this way-too dormant blog. I am really hoping to write here more often in 2023. For now, though, here are some of my favorite songs released in 2022. I listen to a lot of music and this list represents a very small portion of the “best of 2022” personal playlist I’ve curated over the past 12 months. Not really a fan of the “best of” terminology. I admit that, in many cases, there…

When I heard my favorite television show of all time, “Doctor Who”—the greatest sci-fi series in television history (this is fact…deal with it, Trekkies)—was coming to New York City to film part of the episode that would serve as the finale for the characters of Amy Pond (Karen Gillan) and Rory Williams (Arthur Darvill), I immediately…

RIP, Johnny Clegg...remembering a legend and a personal musical hero
Johnny Clegg (via FriendsOfJohnnyClegg.com)
I became a fan of Johnny Clegg and Savuka when MTV actually gave the video for “Cruel, Crazy Beautiful World”—the title track of their 1989 album—a decent amount of airplay (oddly enough, it was not from hearing it in the 1990 Dana Carvey film Opportunity Knocks or the following year’s Career Opportunitieswith Jennifer Connelly). I bought the cassette…

It was a usual morning for me. As I was making myself breakfast and drinking my first cup of coffee of the day at the kitchen counter, I was listening to the morning show on WXPN out of the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia.
They were going through the day’s music notes when suddenly I heard, “And Mark Hollis, the frontman for Talk Talk…”

The podcast will (fingers crossed) be returning.
Hey there. I’m still alive…and thinking it’s time to fire up the ol’ podcasting machine again. I’m still working on the details and logistics of how I’m going to squeeze it into my schedule, but I’ll figure something out. I recently had time to jot down some ideas for guests – even that is something I haven’t had a chance to do in a long time. If I can get a few interviews “in the can,” I’ll get…
