"As a card carrying member of the ‘80s Nation, it was a thrill to have a conversation with Bailey, who called from his home in New Zealand, to talk about this new compilation, his earliest musical memories, how technology changed everything, and the role of nostalgia." @chipmidnight.bsky.social

Despite having a legendary career that’s lasted almost 50 years, there has (until now, as far as I know) never been a book about Graham Parker. If not just Parker’s music, but pub rock, the roots of UK punk, and great stories about ’70s rock and roll are up your alley, I highly recommend this book!

Sunjammer’s name neatly sums up its ethos: South Texas groove, gently steamrolling listeners with unhurried, unfussy arrangements and deceptively sophisticated songwriting.

Jimi Hendrix faced a daunting challenge when it came time to follow up his astounding 1967 debut Are You Experienced, since it was probably impossible to match the ferocious shock and awe of that mind-blowing album.
