I’m here. It’s Official

My L.A. County Birth Certificate, It’s Official by Reviewer Rob I went to the L.A. County courthouse by LAX the other day, the one a few miles north of where I was born, to pick up a copy of my birth certificate. Never had to do this before. Amazing how streamlined the process is. I paid the parking meter, took […]

cd review: “Yoshimi” by The Adversary

That’s how we got Bread, Boston, [The] Chicago [Transit Authority], [Fresh] Cream, Supertramp, Buckingham Nicks . . . […]

Run Brothers Run

Wheeland Brothers Muchos Mahalos LP Reviewed by Brent D. Tharp   The musical landscape is littered with acts that are ubiquitous, and sadly, completely interchangeable. Many also claim some distant but unexplained California nativeness. At the risk of generating skeins of hateful email from the feel-good music crowd, I include John Mayer and several others in the aforementioned categories. Then […]
