  1. 38 years ago today, October 1, 1988, Baillie and the Boys debuted at #71 on Billboard’s Hot Country Singles chart with “Long Shot”. It went on to peak at #5 and spent a total of 27 weeks on the chart.

    It’s been my hobby to collect 45 RPM singles. This song was in heavy rotation for several weeks at 650 AM KYAK where I worked as a broadcaster from 1987-1991.

  8. In 1972, the number 1 song in Italy used only English-sounding gibberish and it’s so trippy

  9. 41 years ago today, July 13, 1985, Vince Gill (w/Rosanne Cash) debuted at #77 on Billboard’s Hot Country Singles chart with “If It Weren’t for Him”. It went on to peak at #10 for two weeks and spent a total of 18 weeks on the chart.

    This was Vince’s breakthrough single on the Country charts, his first to make it into the Top 10, and one of my favorites from 40+ years ago.

  10. 40 years ago today, July 12, 1986, Schuyler, Knobloch & Overstreet debuted at #75 on Billboard’s Hot Country Singles chart with “You Can’t Stop Love”. It went on to peak at #9 for two weeks and spent a total of 29 weeks on the chart.

    Practically from the first listen it became a favorite of mine, which inspired me to go out and buy the 45 RPM single 4 decades ago, adding to my collection.

    🎵 L Y R I C S 🎵:
    I don't wanna call and talk too long
    I know it was wrong, but never said I was sorry
    Now I've had time to think it over
    We're much older and the bone's too big to bury

    Oh, isn't it a shame that it ended like that?
    Said goodbye forever, but you never unpacked
    We went to hell, but we never came back

    I'm sorry that you're jaded
    I could've taken you places
    You're lonely now and I hate it
    I'm sorry that you're jaded

    You're not even willin' to look at your part
    You just jump in the car and head down to the bar 'til you're blurry
    Don't know when to stop, so you take it too far
    I don't know where you are, and I'm left in the dark 'til I'm worried
    Oh, and it hurts me

    And it's a fuckin' shame that it ended like that
    You broke your own heart, but you'd never say that
    We went to hell, but we never came back

    I'm sorry that you're jaded (jaded)
    I could've taken you places (places)
    You're lonely now and I hate it
    I'm sorry that you're jaded

    I won't lie, it won't be easy
    When somebody new's on your body
    I'll change my number but keep your T-shirt
    I don't mind it's torn up and faded

    I'm sorry that you're jaded (jaded)
    I could've taken you places (places)
    You're lonely now and I hate it
    I'm sorry that you're jaded

    I'm sorry that you're jaded

  20. I want to set up an old school links page on my website. Since I'm starting to get traffic I thought it would be the right time.

    Are there any personal sites in the #solarpunk #gardening #permaculture #anticapitalist or #art #songwriters #activism #westvirginia communities you would like to get added to that page?

    I'm not seeking businesses, just people in line with the values of our site even if you sell something.

  21. I know a lot of folks don't like AI. I'm kind of getting there, but as someone who is constantly overwhelmed, sometimes it really helps me express things I could not express otherwise.

    Tonight, it helped me write a song, something that I could NEVER fathom. I'm not trying to launch a record label, only trying to express my feelings and I need the help right now.

    Oh, also (AI) Description: Emotional indie-alt ballad about heartbreak, survival, and rebuilding yourself after life falls apart. Cinematic female vocals, ambient piano, soft strings, and a slow hopeful rise after emotional collapse.

    So, let's think about this. How can we make this real? Which human artist could you hear singing this song? Would you change the genre, the instruments?

    #AIMusic #Suno #HumanMusic #Music #Singers #Songwriters

    Dang, this really resonates with me. I've got to learn how to express myself.

  24. Ecstasy

    Lou Reed releases his 18th album on April 4, 2000 -- often referred to as his final "rock" album before a series of collaborations. Ecstasy is a concept album about Lou's experiences with marriage and long-term relationships and the challenges and rewards that go with. Seriously -- you could do as well with a listen as that for which you pay $200 an hour ... #loureed #ecstasy #rock #singersongwriter #songwriters #rockmusic #music #musicsky #musiciansky
