Garden of Serenity by David & Steve Gordon

Scars On Broadway - Stoner-Hate (Song)
Stoner-Hate is a track by Scars On Broadway which appears on their self-titled debut record. Preceding Stoner-Hate in the track listing is Exploding/Reloading and I suppose the best way I could describe Stoner-Hate right now is that it’s a far more aggressive version of the previous song, and I …
Phantom 309 by Red Sovine
Red Sovine sings the song Phantom 309 which is about a truck driver that gave his life to save a bunch kids on a school bus. It is about a true hero that was willing to make the ultimate sacrifice of his life for others. Now days I wonder …
Journey Revelations album set
After all of the fuss over Arnel Pineda’s You Tube performance that won him the honor of becoming Journey’s new lead singer, I bought the album to see if he could carry the title.
I have mixed feelings about the recordings. I’m forever a loyal Steve Perry fan, so there …

NOW 23 CD
Usually, the NOW CD’s have a sad compilation of songs that did ‘alright’ that year in the Top 40 charts. NOW 23, however, did have songs that did extremely well and whose titles I actually remembered. There were one or two songs that I didn’t recognize, but the rest …

Flying the Corporate Jet - Nine Days album
If you are looking for some different music to listen to, I would strongly suggest the album put out in 2003, by Nine Days. This is the band that brought you “Absolutely (Story of a Girl)” back in 2001, and they’ve continued making music since then, even though …
Ed Sheeran - Castle on the Hill (2016 Song)

The Grateful Dead - In The Dark

Little Woman song

Green Day - Jesus Of Suburbia (Song)
I said in my review of American Idiot that everything with Green Day is simple and basic. Well, Jesus Of Suburbia makes me look like an idiot with this statement. I will admit that the majority of tracks on American Idiot are indeed quite simple and basic, this album …
Slash-Godfather Theme (song)
Often during live performances with Guns N’ Roses, Slash would perform his guitar solo spot that transitioned into the first note that many ears would easily recognize as the theme to the Godfather Trilogy. It starts off with slow with a lot of sustain and vibrato. Then once it …
Complete Edition Alien 1979 Soundtrack Music

The Beatles - The White Album (Side IV)

Metallica - Holier Than Thou (Song)
Holier Than Thou, the third song off The Black Album, is certainly much more aggressive than the previous two tracks of Sad But True and Enter Sandman. Although the aggression and speed of Holier Than Thou doesn’t match the first four records, it’s probably one of the more aggressive …
Hot Fuss, 2004 Album by The Killers

Bob Dylan - Together Through Life
Overview —“ Together Through Life, Bob Dylan’s 33rd released studio album shows the man still has the drive to make music but it just isn’t as good as what it once was. Obviously I don’t expect Dylan to release another Highway 61 Revisited or Blonde On Blonde, although his …

AT&T Presents Stormy Weather CD
The AT&T Presents Stormy Weather CD is taken from a 1998 concert that was a benefit for the Walden Woods Project and the Thoreau Institute. The performers are all environmental activist to a degree. It’s certainly an interesting mix.

Pink Floyd - Money (Song)

Beer for my Horses by Toby Keith

Last resort by Papa Roach
Last Resort by Papa Roach is a song that is awesome in my book. The lyrics are perfect but they do talk about some very disgusting things if you think about it. I like the song though cause of the beat it has to it. I know that sounds …
Circus by Britney Spears
Listening to Circus by Britney Spears, I must say that she has definitely improved on her style of singing. Though not that much of an improvement, her songs are mostly trance-like and kind of like an 80’s era or disco kind. You can’t quite put the money on …
