Bob Dylan The Philosophy of Modern Song Book Review
Singer/Songwriter/Musician/Pulitzer Prize Winner Bob Dylan released his second book (his autobiography Chronicles Volume 1 was released October 3 of 2005) November 1 of 2022.
Unlike his autobiography, this book is Dylan’s interpretation/examination/opinions on a list of several songs from throughout history.
He gives his thoughts on songs by Marty Robbins, Johnny Cash, The Clash, Elvis Costello, Rosemary Clooney, Carl Perkins, Elvis Presley, and several others.
His descriptions of some of these songs are as detailed or more detailed than the actual songs themselves.
He really dove in on these songs.
Some of his thoughts are deep and heavy, but some of his thoughts are even funny.
It is a fascinating book, extremely well written by Dylan, and I recommend it.

Jack Russell/Tracii Guns Medusa Album Review
Here is my first album review for 2024.
Jack Russell (Lead Singer of Great White/Jack Russell’s Great White) and Tracii Guns (Guitarist of L.A. Guns) collaborated on an album called Medusa.
It was released on Friday, January 12 of 2024.
If you are a fan of both their work in their other bands, you will love this.
Jack’s great vocals and Tracii’s great playing, backed by very good musicians, make up a very rocking album.
This was released by Frontiers Records, who release a lot of albums, and often put musicians together that usually don’t or have ever worked together in a situation where they do work together.
Check out this album. Every song is very good and the album Rocks!!
