Contractual obligation? First concept album by a rock and roll act? Doesn’t matter – this is one of the most beautiful albums ever made, it pre-dated the folk boom by a couple of years and still isn’t dated by sound or message. A quiet classic.

Saturday, May 22nd, 2010A couple of my favorite sites have been recently taken down, and I’m almost afraid to call attention to the ones that are left, but here goes..
Power Pop Criminals – American Spring (one of my all-time favorite records), Byrds/Gene Clark comps, some Stiffs and a tremendous new Soundalikes comp that will have you listening and guessing for a long time (one of my songs is included, and I’m wondering about it myself!)
Power Pop Overdose – Cells! Lilys! Mondo Topless!
Jane Siberry is now giving away her music. All of it. She’s a true artist and I urge you to check her music out before she drifts away altogether.
Clicks and Pops – Who is Brandon Schott?
Bruce Eaton’s Blog – There’s a Big Star movie in the works?
Never Get Out Of The Boat – Tons of great stuff. Begin with the Masked Marauders if you dare.
