Now Playing: Fishbone - Live in Bordeaux
Topic: my podcasts
If it were already halfway through the year, maybe then I would feel uncomfortable about saying "Happy New Year." However, since we're not even done with the first month yet, I'm going to say it...
Happy New Year.
This year is already shaping up to be amazing musically, but forgive me if I'm still a little stuck on 2011. The amount of sonic spillover from last year could easily fill up this one. And there's always more that I know about, but never get a chance to hear. There's so much more that passes me by these days than I'm able to catch. Surprisingly enough, I'm okay with that. Probably because I know that I hear what I'm meant to hear. Music's cool like that.
No overly long intros. No needlessly extensive liner notes. Not this time. I believe in these artists, these albums, and these songs enough to simply let them speak for themselves.
Fifteen songs now, fifteen songs next episode. It's just a drop in the bucket from last year, but it represents the sounds that stayed with me the most. Hope you enjoy the show.
