Warren Zevon – Werewolves Of London

Oh yes! A classic tune here for yall. Going way back for this week’s Track of the Week with Warren Zevon’s “Werewolves Of London”. I’ve been going through his music recently and this is one of his better known tracks, one you’ve surely heard on the radio! Absolutely love Warren’s stuff, songs similar enough toContinue reading “Warren Zevon – Werewolves Of London”

Chilliwack-Dreams, Dreams, Dreams

ANOTHER little review just for you! Chilliwack are a band I kind of got into while I lived in Canada.

I did however feel though that a lot of their stuff sounds the same but well, of courseContinue reading “Beach House-7”

Kanye West-ye

‘ye’ is the latest release from Kanye West. I didn’t have much interest in his last two records but I do like this one. Sure, it’s still West calling himself a “superhero” but he also discusses drugs and his mental health issues. All to the sound of his often brash, often rough beats. ‘ye’debuted atContinue reading “Kanye West-ye”
