There are very few conversations that you can have about musicians and bands that were ahead of their time without mentioning, at some point, Electric Light Orchestra, or ELO. For those of you who may not know who ELO is, you will probably be surprised. Their music has been used in movies, commercials, television programs … Read more
This article may not be what you are expecting for a piece written about Rick Springfield. No mushy talk about how he was considered an 80s heartthrob or the fact that he played Noah Drake in a soap opera. All of this is true and I am sure that there are many woman… and possibly … Read more
I like Meat Loaf… both the dinner kind and the musician, but for the sake of this I am speaking of the musician, Marvin Lee Aday… aka Meat Loaf, for the topic at hand. As I said, I really like his, Meat Loaf’s, music. I have been listening to his work for about as long … Read more

In July I will be trying something new. I will be writing eight articles that feature a different band or performer. I have decided to write about people that many of you who might read this would probably not be very familiar with. My reason for doing this is because of the level of importance … Read more
There is no denying that the elections in Iran and the controversy surrounding them have the attention of the world focused on that country. We may be witnessing a monumental moment in the development of the middle east, depending on the results of the riots and the upheaval. To say that rigging the vote is … Read more
It has been many years, but I once received flowers at work from my wife. To say it was an unusual experience is an understatement. But to say that it was not welcomed, is untrue. Typically men will send flowers to their wives, girlfriends, lovers, etc… sometimes all three at the same time, though that … Read more
