Reconfigured: Bob Dylan, "Infidels"

Reconfigured: Bob Dylan, “Infidels”

By 1983, Bob Dylan’s mid-70s creative peak of Blood on the Tracks and Desire seemed very small in the rear view mirror. Divorce, money troubles and a declining sense of artistic purpose led him to embrace a particularly strident strain of evangelical Christianity, and his resulting albums sold progressively worse while alienating more and more listeners. Whatever his spiritual convictions, his professional pride was sufficiently wounded to spur him into making something of a comeback. The result was Infidels. Produced […]

The Pixies,  EP-1:  Album Review

The Pixies, EP-1: Album Review

There’s a line in the recent Pixies single ‘Bag Boy,’ that kind of summarizes the sudden EP of new recorded music for the first time in 22 years.  “So disappointed I was/that I had to make small talk with you/I’m not feelin’ your buzz/I only smell your crock of stew.” I mean, let’s review the facts here.  The band reunited in 2003 and has toured off and on over the past 10 years, flirting with the idea of ‘will they […]

Note by Note: The Complete Discography of Queen, Part 3 (1980-1989)

The epic quest through Queen’s career enters controversial territory as we electric slide into the ’80s, from 1980’s “The Game” through 1989’s “The Miracle”. Will their googly-eyed rock theatrics bite the dust, or anoint them princes of the universe?

bLISTerd: Best Pop Culture Vehicles of All-Time: Nos 20-11

It was after a trip to visit a prospect’s business that I wondered aloud, “What’s the coolest pop culture vehicle of all-time?” You see, unfortunately, I’m not actually a full-time scribe for PopBlerd!

Like people paid him tons, upon tons of money and he souped-up their already souped-up classic autos. It was quite the sight, seeing three to four classic cars sitting in his […]
