My son gave me the Tony Iommi book "Iron Man" for fathers day, and I read it on my flights to and from Calgary.

So, on youtube I have found all the Black Sabbath albums. I must admit I was never a fan of Sabbath with Ozzy, but I have been listening to the entire Sabbath catalogue!!

I actually appreciate Sabbath music more now than I did when I was a growing up listening to it. When I was a kid it was just kick ass metal that was fun to play loud. Now I'm appreciating it in a more critical way. Like, for instance, the amazing guitar work. A lot of which was revolutionary in it's day.

Ya' it's cliche to even say that sentence, but it's the fact that it 'is' cliche that proves that it's true. Also, a lot of the tunes are musically a lot more complex than most people give it credit for.

All that aside, the best part of all is that it's still just plain fun to play loud.

Best Coast - The Only Place

Pleasant album, and I think I like it more than their first one.

Dead Sara - Dead Sara

Her vocals are very entertaining. Check out a music video: Dead Sara - "Weatherman"

I really liked this song featured in Breaking Bad, so I'm excited to get her music later this week:

Ana Tijoux - "1977"

I wish I could roll my R's gooder.

Yeah, I wouldn't be able to do a coverrrrrrr of any of her songs.

Oh, don't worry, Bob. Already in preproduction for my first film, The Pickled Herring.

Wasn't The Pickled Herring the supergroup formed by Regina Spektor, Billy Corgan, and the Swedish half of Negative Orange?

I don't know, but I bet CV has the restraining order, sympatico shaved head, and "Hands Off My Lingonberries" t-shirt to prove it.

Oh, well done!
