Been A Long Process

Back in August, I finally figured out a way to grab music from my broken iPod. When I finally transferred the music folders to my hard drive, the real work began. I had about 50 folders of music, each containing about 100 or so songs. The problem is that not all of the songs were … Continue reading Been A Long Process →

The Music of My Life – 1999

Welcome back to The Music of My Life, where I feature ten songs from each year of my life. In most cases, the ten songs I choose will be ones I like personally (unless I explain otherwise).

Movie Music Monday – Spiderman 2

Superheroes were big when I was growing up. I watched the Batman 1966 TV show, on Saturday morning my brother and I would watch the Superfriends cartoon, and on the Electric Company, there used to be a segment with a live action Spiderman. Hollywood is forever recycling ideas and it is no surprise that Superhero … Continue reading Movie Music Monday – Spiderman 2 →

Apple Anger!

I have had my iPod Classic for about 17 years. The original computer I used to synch it with iTunes is long dead. I haven't added any music to it in some time because I had synched it to too many computers (now all dead) over the years. Recently, I had my first issue ... … Continue reading Apple Anger! →

Tune Tuesday – The Distance Between You and Me

I follow quite a few blogs that focus on classic movies, classic TV, and great music. One of the bloggers I follow posted a bit about Dwight Yoakam and his great song "Ain't That Lonely Yet." You can see that blog at the following link: https://powerpop.blog/2019/05/03/dwight-yoakam-aint-that-lonely-yet/ When I am driving in to work, or at … Continue reading Tune Tuesday – The Distance Between You and Me →

Tune Tuesday – How Long

If you are like me, you have songs that when you hear them on your MP3 player, or your iPod, as soon as they end, you play them again. I have quite a few of them. I would wager a guess that these songs will end up here in future Tune Tuesday blogs. Today's song … Continue reading Tune Tuesday – How Long →
