Although I love Apple's new "Music" interface, I recently purchased #Longplay to play my digital library on my MacBook Pro. Great organiser of full albums for the music enthusiast. Give them a follow and check it out for yourself @longplay.rocks
If you were making an 'essentials' playlist for Canadian rocker #NeilYoung, what three cuts from his vast catalogue would you need to include? Mine are: 1- Cortez The Killer 2- Cowgirl in the Sand 3- Rockin' in the Free World
I own every single one so what does that make me?
So you hit a garage sale and all these records are for sale in great condition but you have money for just 3 albums. Which 3 are you buying? #JanisJoplin #TragicallyHip #SexPistols #VanHalen #TomPetty #SteelyDan #Soundgarden #Radiohead #Queensryche
A lovely pooch indeed!
As sadly the Trump administration goes after #SesameStreet and other great educational shows on PBS, we treasure even more the moments like this! The great #ChrisStapleton not afraid to be "woke" and singing with Ernie, Bert and the gang! www.youtube.com/watch?v=r0bn...
No... just decided to plug them just because....!
You can only keep one of these albums with all others tho be erased from history just like science, statistics, the J6 insurrection courtesy of #45/47! Which album are you keeping for the next generation to enjoy? #JimiHendrix #LedZeppelin #TragicallyHip #Genesis #JanisJoplin
Playing the 'perfect' album in every sense! "Hotel California" by the #Eagles" was their most ambitious effort to date with the title track being arguably the greatest song in rock history. LABEL: Asylum 6E-101 ©1976 GENRE: Pop/Rock SUB-GENRE: Classic Rock VALUE: $7.50 VG to $15.00 NM
Guard dog West overseeing the entire lake!
You can ONLY keep one album from this 1994 collection of killer music. Who are you taking? #1994AlbumChallenge #Weezer #JeffBuckley #Pavement #Prince #NineInchNails #BonnieRaitt #Nirvana #StoneTemplePilots
Now that Matt Cameron has left the mighty #PearlJam, who's the front runner to replace him?? So many names in the mix from Dave Krusen, Josh Freese, Brad Wilk, Stephen Perkins, Jack Irons to the front-runners Abe Laboriel Jr. and Martin Barrett. Who do you got???
Show me your dogs! Meet West the tough as nails West Highland White Terrier!
Great listen. Don't think Aronoff or Tomas Lang are in the mix. Eddie does know Abe and Zakk Starkey pretty well but deep down inside, Barrett has got to be the frontrunner.

Another great night at #Bluesfest! Arguably the most successful punk band of all time, #GreenDay played an amazing set in front of over 30, 000 fans on a perfect summer night complete with fireworks!!
The Internet wins again 💀😂😅🤣
Seen at Ottawa's #Bluesfest, an amazing backdrop by the one and only #TomMorello!
My son seeing his band plastered on the streets unbeknownst to him was quite funny!! #PYROMANIE
Must say that #DefLeppard do leave it all on the stage much to my surprise. Great harmonies, killer guitar and Joe Elliott was in fine form for the 30,000 fans in attendance!
#liveaid #bobgeldof #musicforacause #40years
I have the gatefold! A classic!
Going to see #DefLeppard / @defleppard.bsky.social with my son this Wednesday with 30,000 other concert goers. What 3 songs would you want to see the band play live if you were attending? For me... 1- Take What You Want 2- Billy's Got A Gun 3- Wasted
Had such a crush on her as a teenager! Love the Pretenders!!!
I think Ted Templeman knew that Roth would need to have a guitarist on par with EVH and money talks!
Nice... excellent session man gone way too soon. We forget about his work with both Kate Bush and Bowie!!
What guest appearance on guitar blew you away the first time you heard it? For me, it's #PublicImage bringing in a young #SteveVai to lay down some amazing guitar on their 1986 effort "Album". Post-punk meets hard rock with "Ease" showcasing Vai's talents! www.guitarworld.com/features/joh...
