In honor of what would have been Alex Chilton’s 70th birthday, take a moment to revisit our thoughts on @BigStarBand ‘s 4th & final album. An album that captured some of Alex’s best latter day performances. @OmnivoreRecords the13thtrack.com/2019/09/25/…

Albany’s Sky Furrows have a new album that is full of darkly poetic and mysterious sounds. It's an easy collection to find yourself deep in the grooves of. #albanyny #tapedriftrecords the13thtrack.com/2020/11/12/…

I haven’t written a record review in a few months. I just haven’t felt like it, given the dreadful state of the world. But, this new ⁦@RobynHitchcock⁩ CD just showed up, and I felt inspired. Enjoy! ⁦@tinyghostrcrds⁩ the13thtrack.com/2020/09/11/…

Here’s to 100 releases on the venerable Corwood Industries label. May Jandek continue to bend genres and minds for at least hundred more.

So, let’s see this morning so far I’ve spun Emitt Rhodes, The Left Banke and am looking forward to getting the new Dylan album. Is it 2020 or 1970?

Never have I seen an album cover that as equal parts generic and amazing as this one.

There are few artists who can claim they out Paul McCartney-ed the man himself. But Emmit’s self-titled debut definitely did. Here’s to the one man Beatles.

It’s been one year since David Berman gave his last towering work of musical genius. We should all consider ourselves blessed to have it. the13thtrack.com/2019/08/15/… @dragcityrecords

Anyone care to offer their theory why a Grand Funk Railroad label is hiding underneath the label of this Abbey Road 8-track? #beatles #beatlesmysteries #grandfunkrailroad #8tracks

This was a great conversation. How great would a reoccurring @RobynHitchcock centered podcast be? I’m thinking something on the order of I Only Listen To The Mountain Goats, but with more talk about cheese, Dylan, and The Beatles. Sign me up! @PlanetofFinks what do you think?

This was a tough one to write. Read our review of the wonderful Purple Mountains album. Thanks to @dragcityrecords for helping to bring this album into the world. #DavidBerman the13thtrack.com/2019/08/15/…
