Do Young Folks “Lykke” Mushrooms?
March 31, 2009 – 10:30 am
Last Saturday L.A.-based emcee and music aficionado Micah James re-posted the video for “Run Run,” a Summer favorite from last year by Swedish girl-group Those Dancing Days, on his Facebook wall. Earlier the same day I resolved to finally delete Swedish Indie-Pop Lolita Lykke Li’s outstanding 2008 debut Youth Novels off my iPod to […]
Reissues at Random, Vol. 80: Frankie Valli & The Four Seasons/Jake Holmes
February 6, 2009 – 10:30 am
When I likened Dent May to Frankie Valli & The Four Seasons in yesterday’s post about mood-altering music it reminded me of something about the vocal group…Though mostly known for motivational chestnuts like “Walk Like a Man” and “Big Girls Don’t Cry” the New Jersey-based foursome released at least one LP that was far more […]

January 7, 2009 – 10:30 am
With a full week of the brand new year firmly behind us I think it’s safe to say that 2009 hasn’t begun on the most humane of notes. Iraq continues to be plagued by suicide bombers. Tensions between nuclear superpowers India and Pakistan are heightened after the revelation that the men responsible for the Mumbai […]
Records at Random, Vol. 77: Frankie Valli & the Four Seasons Beggin’: The Ultimate Collection
December 12, 2008 – 10:30 am
This week I and my impeccable taste in footwear assisted my best friend m. Cody in purchasing a much-needed pair of new sneakers. She in turn used her discount connections to assist me in obtaining the first of what will have to be many much-more-needed shelves in which to store my many vinyl records. […]
