The Viewfinder: Joe Walsh’s “Wrecking Ball”
Joe Walsh of Eagles/Barnstorm/solo fame will be releasing his first album of original material in twenty years, titled Analog Man, in just a few days. The last time he presented new music to us, we were involved in Desert Storm the first time and George H. W.

Rolling Stone was kind enough to sponsor official video for a live show that Joe […]
Spin Cycle: Bon Iver’s “Bon Iver, Bon Iver”
Reams and reams of paragraphs, enough (and steeped in enough mythology) to ink dozens of dead sea scrolls, have been devoted to Bon Iver’s 2007 debut, For Emma, Forever Ago, and not without reason; indie lovers and avid Pitchfork readers seem to flock to rootsy acoustic-slinging troubadours with gusto, special hipster points granted for being lo-fi.

"Intriguer" Marks Crowded House Return: Album Due in June
When most bands reunite after a long absence, they reunite and then implode yet again. Thankfully, with Crowded House, that is not the case. My favorite New Zealanders (now with one black guy who looks like this guy I used to work with named Chris) reappeared in 2007 after an absence of nearly fifteen years. While the resulting album, “Time on Earth” wasn’t the equal of past efforts, it was a solid album, and I was fortunate enough to see […]
