Neil Young & Crazy Horse - "Everybody Knows This is Nowhere"

Young's first album with The Horse. A galloping garage-rock juggernaut released in May 1969. The first of many great collaborations with Neil and his loping, ragged launching pad that he uses to scratch his itch to rock out. We're talking "Down By the River," "Cinnamon Girl" and "Cowgirl in the Sand" - actually every song is essentially. One of the great rock albums from the tail-end of the '60s.

Top 25 Artists Who Belong in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame (first published in Metro Weekly)

Here is, in heavily edited format, My list of the Top 25 Artists Who Belong in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame (link). The original version was significantly longer with more details on each artist.

Published in Metro Weekly on April 18, 2015. I'm going to be going back through in the days ahead and publishing the links to my key stories from the last couple years that I have been writing at Metro Weekly.

The Zombies - "The Best Of..."

I found this compilation by The Zombies at Record and Tape Exchange today, and I picked it up because it's in perfect condition. After researching on Discogs, it appears to be a 1982 Canadian-only compilation on London Records. It has a very nice track-listing.
