I've tried to like the late period Nick but it just doesn't work for me. Gimme Rockpile, Labor of Lust and Repeat When Necessary! I need a Dose of You tonight!

Sheldon replied to T Hanssen's discussion 'The No Depression Confession Booth'
I am a big fan of Electric Light Orchestra, from their first album all the way through Out of the Blue. I even bought the Zoom DVD and liked a couple of the newer tunes. I realize it is light weight prog rock (at best). I also…

Sheldon commented on Mando Lines's blog post 'Robert Earl Keen: Ready For Confetti'
Listened to Toby Keith - nice ripoff! Oh well, I guess it is to be expected. I've never had anything nice to say about the garbage on "top-40 country radio". Sorry for REK, he probably could have used the royalties.
Sheldon commented on Mando Lines's blog post 'Robert Earl Keen: Ready For Confetti'
I love Robert Earl Keen, but I wish he wouldn't re-record his earlier songs. There are a lot of good songs out there he could cover if he needs material. Looking forward to this one arriving in my mailbox (we don't have record…

Sheldon commented on Easy Ed's blog post 'Top 10 Reasons To Support Record Store Day'
For over 30 years I bought my music at Crows Nest in Cresthill IL. Awesome store, huge variety. But they are long gone. I wish I could get to Grimeys in Nashville tomorrow to celebrate.
Sheldon replied to Terry Foldenauer's discussion '5 Most Overrated Bands or Singers'
I know this is supposed to be for artists or bands, but..........
All rap - the stuff is not even music.
All music that involves choreographed dance moves by the lead singer (except 60's Motown, that was cool).
All top 40 country.

So I picked up a lot of new artists and while I found a lot of good music it was tough to find a full album of great music. Every year there's usually a few albums that just grab me and won't let go, such as:
2004 - Buddy Miller - Universal United House of…
