    As a rule, you generally don’t expect artists to find more success outside of their own country than they do at home, but that’s certainly proven to be the case for Suzi Quatro: the leather-clad rocker may have come roaring out of Detroit in the late ’60s, but she actually found her first success in Portugal – her single “Rolling Stone” was a #1 hit there – and went on to top the charts in the UK and Australia with “Can the Can” and “Devil’s Gate Drive,” earning an additional #1 in the land down under with “48…

    It was so exciting to be on a recent episode of Tim and Eric's Bedtime Stories on Adult Swim. The episode, "The Endorsement" starring Jason Schwartzman was a comedic, dark and twisted look at the world of celebrity and entertainment news coverage with yours truly playing the host they put in a cage. You'll understand more once you see the episode LOL! We also got the Gawker seal of approval (whatever that means) who complimented how Tim and Eric "zeroed in on how we give celebrities a lot of shit for things they have very little control over and also provided the most perfect indictment of…

  • Batman: Turn off the Dark Knight! Songs by and About the Caped Crusader & Friends

    75 years into his crimefighting career, the Batman is still revealing himself as a versatile icon not only in comics, but on the silver screen, the TV, and the stage. The Dark Knight even steals the show when he’s comic relief in a feature-length ad for a toy. November 11, Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment will release Lego Batman 3: Beyond Gotham, which renders characters from DC Comics and our world as walking, talking, playable characters. A second sequel was a no-brainer following this year’s box-office smash The Lego Movie, which grossed over $250 million (according to IMDB).

    As I did with the recent re-issues of #1 Record and Radio City, I went into listening and watching Big Star Live In Memphis with open mind and fresh ears, especially since I’ve never seen a full-length performance of the band.  The 1993 release, Columbia – Live At Missouri University 4/25/93 is almost a table setter for this, but that was their first show with the new line-up (Jon Auer and Ken Stringfellow of The Posies – who would be with the band until Chilton’s death in 2010), so I discount it.  This show, filmed and recorded at the New Daisy Theatre in the…

    Twenty years after Kurt Cobain’s tragic suicide, he’s still, it seems, as popular as ever. Sure, Cobain and company have sold some 25 million records in the U.S. since 1991 alone, if Bloomberg Businessweek is to be believed. But, since Cobain’s death, Nirvana has released two LPs that rocketed right to the top of the charts: 1994’s MTV Unplugged In New York and 1996’s From The Muddy Banks of the Wishkah, two #1s. The odds-and-ends collection With The Lights Out, a worthwhile endeavor if anyone’s taking notes, went platinum, setting a record for single week sales of any box set.
