A "stream of consciousness" observation on music and how we relate to it. How we purchase, listen to and enjoy music is changing. What does it mean to be a music fan in a world where every song, performance and video is literally at your fingertips? I hope to be a guide to this new world of musical experience. Featuring tunes and comments about artists, old and new in nearly every genre.

Let's Take a Moment to Remember Those Who Served
As you dodge the raindrops, and blow on the hot coals to fire up the grill, let's take a moment to remember those who served so valiantly. I have become more "anti-war" as I have gotten older and think that the exercise of military power as an extension of national goals is an evil we should renounce. Maybe WWII and Korea where the last of the "Good Wars?" I do know that the US spends as much on it's military budget as the next 28 countries combined. And 27 of them are US allies. Insane.
Anyway, here are ten Memorial Day songs, courtesy of the Nation magazine with some cool, more obscure selections.
