Tuesday Toon-Up: Rancid!

I was late to the party with punk.  I never gave it much attention until the late 90s when my editor at the Reno Gazette Journal gave me a copy of Out Come The Wolves.

This song was the first to catch my atrophied ear and draw me out of my introspective jazz phase and back into the raucous world of rock.  The album is full of great tunes, but this is still my favorite.  Enjoy!

Tuesday Tune-Up: Leo Kottke

I interviewd Leo Kottke in the early 90s.  One of the toughest interviews I ever did, because he's such a low key guy.  I've always loved slide guitar, so I thought I'd post this.  Enjoy!

Tuesday Toon-Up: Paul Simon

My sister wore the grooves out of this record when it came out in 1987.  Paul Simon is releasing a new album today, so I decided to share this video.  Great stuff from the height of his career.  Enjoy!

Tuesday Toon-Up; Bad To The Bone

I always wondered why I couldn't get this saxophone solo to sound like the record.  He's playing alto and I played tenor.  Story of my life.  Enjoy!
