“One of the realities of working with mediated publications such as magazines is...”
– An amazing anecdote from J.D. Considine himself, sent in regards to my JDC JAMS 1982-1992, Vol 1: The Classics playlist. Though he says cases like this were extremely rare with Rolling Stone, I should always remember these reviews are a bit of a collaboration between writer and editor. While I am...

One Star Music...From The '92 RS Album Guide... →
So I’ve crafted a companion to my earlier One Star Music playlist, this one containing the shortest song off an album that received one star or less in the 1992 Rolling Stone Album Guide, one per artist (how the book describes a single star rating: “Wastes of vital resources. Only masochists or completists need apply.”). Though it also contains 128 tracks, it clocks in at a...

Queensryche & Pearl Jam - "Rockin' In The Free... →
For a brief, glorious moment in 1992, metal and grunge were united. Depends greatly on your buffering, but once I got them in sync for a solid minute.

15 Unbelievably Sexy Moments From The Early Years...
I’m not doing a People’s List because I think it’s lame Pitchfork wants content/social data without even bothering to get album covers they didn’t have already. Plus my head hurts if I think about reassessing 1996-2000, and I think it’s hilarious that they’re counting those years as part of their “era” when they’ve shunted all the content from...

One Star Music...From The '92 RS Album Guide →
Forgot to plug this on here, but last week I made what might be the worst Spotify playlist ever: the longest songs from albums that only received one star (or less) in the 1992 Rolling Stone Album Guide. Only one per artist (usually the latest, as long as it was available in full so people knew exactly which album earned the honor), though I did allow each of the three eligible Kiss solo...

One More Thing
Apparently, Tom Hardy cannot act his way out of a paper cup. Also, the image below is from the first 10 minutes of the movie. I spoiled nothing!
