Really enjoyed that Jason Isbell doc on HBO/HBO Max. Felt like a pretty unflinching look at his story and artistic process. I had a feeling it would be solid since Sam Jones directed it. His interview with Jason from several years back was also so revealing and well done.

Yep Roc Records has a pre-sale for reissues of the first two Grant Lee Buffalo albums for those interested. I’ll be glad to get a non-Plain Recordings version of “Mighty Joe Moon” in my collection.

The March issue of Mojo finally hit the newsstand at the B&N near me. The latest Dylan Bootleg Series installment is the cover story, and the accompanying CD for the issue is outstanding.

Wasn’t expecting another boygenius pre-release single. I think all the songs are really great, but they’ve now shared 1/3 of the album prior to release.

Finally watched “Elvis” last night. I guess I’m just really not a fan of Luhrmann’s style of direction. Also think telling the story from Col. Parker’s pov was a terrible decision. The first half was particularly brutal to sit through.

Just so we’re clear and there’s no confusion, Ticketmaster is the absolute f’ing worst and it should absolutely be destroyed for committing crimes against humanity. That said, Happy Friday everyone!

Soooo…everybody is dressing as Charlie from “Poker Face” for Halloween, right? Oversized aviator shades and Silver Bullet tall boy in hand.

The Leonard Cohen “Hallelujah” doc on Netflix actually has made me re-appreciate the song ‘Hallelujah’. The Jeff Buckley portion was particularly poignant. The Eric Church bit…not so much.

Digging the new Ladytron record quite a bit.

Happy to hear that boygenius is getting the band back together and have a full length album coming out soon. Also happy to hear that Bayonne has a new album due out 5/26. He also pre-released a 3rd single today from the record. All 3 have been solid.

In retrospect, I probably should’ve ranked the Kevin Morby record higher on my albums list, and I definitely should’ve ranked Big Thief’s ‘Time Escaping’ higher on my songs list.

Been on a pretty sustained Hüsker Dü kick for the past few months. Hard for me to believe there was a time that I used to skip the Grant Hart songs and actually preferred their Warner Bros. albums.

KUTX is having their annual Bowie Bash broadcast tonight from 7-11 CST. Always a cool listen. Stream at kutx.org if you’re outside of the Austin area.

Currently obsessing over Leonard Cohen’s “Death of a Ladies’ Man”, and wondering how that record remained such a blind spot for all these years.

Splurged earlier today and picked up both the PJ Harvey B-Sides vinyl box set, and the Sade vinyl box set. Got to spend some Christmas money on fun stuff for a change, and also got to take advantage of Waterloo’s box set discount at the same time.

Question about Apple Music. If you sign up, does it immediately convert the file type for the files in your library?
