Happy Friday the 13th!! Nothing unlucky for you this week, but we do have a scary amount of new releases with over 50 ready for your listening and purchasing pleasure. There is only one I am in to this week and it is the latest Whitesnake which is a Gold edition of The Purple Album which has demos from when David Coverdale auditioned for Deep Purple. How cool is that!! Other than that you have Crosses which will be the big one of the week probably and some old favorites with Ringo and Lynyrd Skynyrd. Hopefully there is something for you to hear this week. Thanks for stopping by and let us know what you want to hear this week or what we may have missed. Have a great weekend one and all!!

Hope you feel better soon. I’ve spun the Creeper album twice already this morning. It’s decent

Thanks! On the road to recovery. Never listened to Creeper before and decent doesn’t give much hope of trying them. LOL!!

The new Marv 3 is incredible. You’d never know they hadn’t recorded together since 1999. I had tickets to the Atlanta reunion show next week, but ultimately decided I’m really not up for a 1000 RT road trip for a concert. So I sold them (face value – I’m not a monster) and we’ll watch via the $20 live stream option instead.
May also hit the Taylor Swift cinema concert tomorrow night for date night.

I need to check the M3 out. Glad to hear it. If I still lived in Atlanta I would’ve tried to see that show. And luckily, my girls didn’t make me take them to the TS concert film.

I’m sorry you’re not feeling well, John. I hope you feel better soon! I am disappointed with Skynyrd, though. It’s the band’s 50th anniversary and with Gary Rossington’s death this past March, it would’ve been the perfect opportunity to release a new studio album. Instead, we got a box set with songs from both the Ronnie and Johnny eras of the band. However, I do like that the box set includes “Last of the Street Survivors,” the band’s most recent song.

Thanks Lana. Feeling better now, but it took two awhile to get over it. And Skynyrd should’ve done something bigger for their 50th.

Glad you’re feeling better John! I totally agree with what you said about Skynyrd. I blame the fans that only like the Ronnie Van Zant era of the band.
