Rattling Across America

Nothing new from DPAA this week – except for a blurb on their website saying they’re affected by the 2019 Wuhan Coronavirus also. So instead, you get what follows. Consider yourself forewarned. (smile) . . . U2 released two absolutely excellent (and hugely different) albums in the late 1980s/early 1990s – namely, The Joshua Tree […]
Two More Rediscovered Gems

Being on the road can be a pain, especially during the “great 2020 Covid-19 stoopid-fest”. As I said in an earlier article, I’m certainly glad to be home. Yet being on the road, even during such times, does have a few good points. One of those is the chance to listen to music you missed […]
