bLISTerd Presents: GG’s Top 11 Albums of 2011

I’ve become very good at buying music these days. I rarely dislike anything I purchase, but that is a problem. With the ability to sample nearly anything and everything before I buy, my taste has become so narrowed down. Thus, my list is probably the most predictable list of all. But I’m not sure that’s a bad thing. The great thing about music is that it’s so subjective. You like what you like. I don’t listen to music as much […]

I don’t know-to my ears, […]

Chart Stalker 9/15/11: Strait to…#3?

A country superstar he may be, but the legendary George Strait couldn’t topple Lil Wayne or Adele from their perches at the top of the Billboard album charts this week. His Here For A Good Time makes a pretty respectable debut with 91,000 units sold, but lands at #3 on the list, behind Weezy’s 219,000 (a pretty steep dropoff in The Carter IV‘s second week…blame it on bad word of mouth) and Adele’s 121,000. Adele’s numbers continue to be mind-blowing. […]

Free Music! Ashley Arrison’s “Hearts on Parade”

Singer/songwriter Ashley Arrison was the subject of one of our very first “Who the Hell Is?” columns. Ashley’s a little bit rootsy, a little bit rock and roll, and a little bit pop. One of her benefactors, in fact, is a woman who shares similar characteristics, former “American Idol” champ and current Grammy-winning superstar, Kelly Clarkson. In the year since we spotlighted her, what has Ashley been up to? Well, she’s been recording her debut album, Hearts on Parade. The album is finished […]
