I’ll tell ya what’s good, what’s bad, and what’s a waste of your precious time. So strap on your headphones and let’s take a ride!

The Big News

Currently listening to the new Trad, Gras och Stenar collection released by Mexican Summer.

Like I said last week, I’m on vacation this week, so this week’s update will be just a quick list. Also, the RIP section will (probably, but hopefully not) be woefully incomplete. I’ll make it up to ya next week. Here’s a list of the good stuff comin’ out this week.

Royce da 59’s first record since 2011, Layers.

Another J Dilla posthumous release, the long awaited The Diary.

Your dad’s idol, Graham Nash, of Crosby, Still, Nash,  offers up his first collection of solo songs since 2002, This Path Tonight.

RIP

This is the part where we say goodbye to those who’ve played their last solo. Rock on and rest in peace, brothers and sisters.
