"Slow Down" is a #rockAndRoll song written and performed by #LarryWilliams. Recorded in 1957, #AllMusic writer Stewart Mason describes it as "raucous enough to be #punkRock nearly a full two decades before the concept was even in existence." #SpecialtyRecords released it as a single in 1958, but only the second-side "#DizzyMissLizzy" reached the record charts. Both songs were later covered by #theBeatles.

Yes, the Internets' unsung hero of in-depth music biographies and reviews initially existed as a paperback. This is the second edition published in 1992, which I bought used at a bookstore in 1996 — was already familiar with the website (launched in 1994). #AllMusic #musicjournalism

IMHO #Michigan-based #AllMusic has great writers, great content, and comprehensive coverage of almost every album released from the Paleolithic until now (with the notable exception of #BryanAdams LOL). But the web interface has been notoriously awful, often unusable. The most recent update appears to be a slight improvement. Not sure if it's enough. Fingers crossed! #Music #MusicJournalism #MusicBusiness https://www.allmusic.com/blog/post/new-and-improved-updates-to-allmusic

@derobbis @sirol una serie fantastica quanto sconosciuta ai più, fu trasmessa da ALL Music che al tempo era la concorrente di MTV e cercavano di differenziare l'offerta musicale con qualcosa di diverso rispetto alla programmazione TV del tempo, ad esempio MTV in quegli anni trasmetteva Fur TV che era un Muppet Show solo per aduti spassosissimo.
