I saw Robert Plant in concert a few weeks ago and I dove headfirst into Led Zeppelin and Plant's solo stuff from the eighties. Isn't he wonderful? Mr. d. and I saw him when he toured with Alison Krauss, and with Jimmy Page years before that. Friends who worked backstage said he was friendly and appreciative of their hard work.

I was in the mood to listen to one of my favorite artists, Laura Nyro. She's one of the musicians whom I wish was more famous in life because of their superb talent and unique style (like Nick Drake).I'm listening to Eli and the Thirteenth Confession. Sadly, I only heard about it her after her death, and bought the CD after Rolling Stone had a "Women of Rock" issue (their ONLY one and that was in 1996 or 1997). Not to brag, but I love to sing along because her vocal type (mezzo-soprano) and vocal range (three octaves) are similar to mine. Also, she was bisexual (like me) and wrote what is the first pop song about a lesbian relationship, "Emmie". In an eerie note, Laura's mother died of ovarian cancer in 1975 at 49. Laura died of ovarian cancer in 1997 at 49. I'm not superstitious, but that's a hell of a coincidence. Take a listen.P.S. - Sadly, Tom Verlaine of Television died. I'm listening to Marquee Moon in his memory. R.I.P., Tom.

I just listened to Fall Out Boy's "We Didn't Start the Fire" cover and...I apologize to any boomers who are upset about this "update". Starting off with Captain Planet is certainly an odd choice. Between G-Eazy's "Lazarus" David Bowie re-do Puddle of Mudd's "About a Girl" Nirvana "interpretation", I think that 2020's are due for a re-boot.

Dolly Parton’s Rockstar CDs. She’s such a National Treasure! Most of the songs are duets and some are with the original singers of the song. Purple Rain is a solo. I think Prince would have had a great time singing with Dolly!

Thanks for mentioning Rockstar! I am listening to it right now and it is a ton of fun. I think everyone on it is having a great time.
