Led Zeppelin: When the Levee Breaks
Spare a though for Georgia. Over the past week or so they’ve had a persistent stretch of wetness – some areas have recorded over a foot of rainfall. Cor Blimey!
The floods and continous drenching inspired me to find an equally impressive and relentless song – and this beauty by Led Zeppelin certainly fits [...]
Guided by Voices: The Goldheart Mountaintop Queen Directory
How is it that out of the blue an amazing track appears in my midst? The other day, one of my friends tweeted this track and claimed it to be the greatest recording ever recorded. I just had to check this out, first because I had never heard of this track before, and [...]

Pink Floyd: Have A Cigar
I have a neighbor that lives, for most of the year in Georgia. The week’s he makes his migration North are few and far between. When he is in the neighborhood, we can sense he is here before we acutally see him… a distinct whiff of cigar smoke hangs in the air from dawn [...]
