Yeah. We know Morrison can be an utter shit when he wants to be. Kinda full of himself and all. Yet he is a brilliant musician whose career began way back in the sixties with the British R & B group, Them. His sometimes unpleasant and arrogant nature doesn’t come through on vinyl.

We’re on 24/7 at no charge to the public. That’s important in these trying and frightening times. We don’t track anyone and we ask for no personal information. We’re not in this for profit. We’re all about the music. Always. The button is below.

Another great band that straddled the sixties and seventies led by another great vocalist in Burton Cummings. They would eventually disband and morph into Bachman-Turner Overdrive, but that’s a whole different story for another day.

We’re here 24/7 for your listening pleasure. And we promise no hidden fees, no collection of private data or snooping in your personal business. We leave that to Elon Musk, the giant piece of shit oligarch currently infecting our government. We’re anti-capitalist. The button is below.

We’re getting close to the 56th anniversary of The Beatles’ very last live performance, an impropmptu concert on the rooftop of Apple Records that blew London’s hair back during weekday lunch. It took the British Bobbies long enough to figure out where it was coming from so that The Beatles managed to record five songs on that rooftop for Let It Be, including Get Back, I’ve Got A Feeling, Don’t Let Me Down, One After 909 and Dig A Pony. It was a momentous musical occasion.
