The Modern Lovers – The Modern Lovers
It's a tale as old as time itself, at least for me. Someone I know and whose taste I trust gushes endlessly over some musical genius. I pay such gushing little mind. Ten, 20 or 30 years later, I finally catch on to what they were raving out. More at:

Morphine – Bootleg Detroit
One more from Morphine – a really excellent document of their live performances, which by all accounts were electrifying. Listening to this, I'm now completely bummed I never even knew about Morphine, let alone had the chance to hear them.

Mazzy Star – So Tonight That I Might See
My 1990s – my fourth decade – were filled with the things that used to occupy one's 30s: building a career, buying a home, building a family, maybe settling into my place in the world. New music was random and sporadic, and often introduced through compilations and soundtracks:

April March – April March Meets Staplin

April March – In Cinerama
Oh, this vanity project. I'm trying to remember back to the time when I started it, and the thought that I would be able to move quickly through the several hundred records I had in my collection, in alphabetical order, and then just occasionally post when I added something new. Nope!
