Can’t Get Enough
Being the Beatles fan that I am, sometimes I just go nuts for their early rock-n-roll, and why not? I love that old-school rock sound, back when rock-n-roll drove parents insane despite the lack of profanity. It’s good stuff. So … Continue reading
Rest In Peace, Victor Spinetti
Very sad news today, as actor Victor Spinetti has passed away. Beatle fans around the world know Spinetti from his multiple co-starring roles in the Beatles’ movies – the frazzled producer in A Hard Day’s Night, a jabbering military man … Continue reading
Can’t Get Enough
Be forewarned. This song is beyond catchy, likely to get stuck in your head after one listen, and I suspect it will be heard everywhere by the end of the summer. And to think, they’re all teenagers. Hat tip: The … Continue reading

Can’t Get Enough
Jack White is driving me wild with his new album Blunderbuss and the song “I’m Shakin’” but the other day while looking for a video for this post, I came across this video. Now I not only can’t get enough … Continue reading
Can’t Get Enough
Every time I hear this song I can’t help but be sucked into it’s magnificent 80s glam rock feel. It’s so over the top, you gotta love it. What’s even better is the cheesy, over-the-top 80s style music video. Hope … Continue reading
