Another Year Of Music!!!!

I took this picture of the Foo Fighters performing in an airplane hanger in Roswell, NM.
Remember that time I decided to watch all those awesome movies from 1984 because it was their 30th anniversary? Yeah, for some reason I didn't stick to that plan all that much. It’s really a shame too, because those were some pretty awesome movies. I kind of got busy with work and then that all changed, cause short little dipshits like playing fucking games with people’s lives, but I digress… Needless, to say, I am bored and need something to do.

Even with short hair, I find you attractive... I swear.
Really quickly however… if you’ll allow me. I did watch Against All Odds as part of the movies from 1984 thing. Holy shit, did Phil Collins knock it out of the park for the song “Against All Odds.” Although the song wasn't truly inspired by the movie. Phil watched an incomplete cut and reworked a demo called “How Can You Just Sit There?” into “Against All Odds.” The original was a song about his ex-wife and slated for his debut solo album Face Value. God bless you Wikipedia! The next time you’re begging for money, I’m really gonna think about sending you ten bucks.

Anyways, the movie Against All Odds is a complete pile of shit. The best use of the movie is literally for the video clips they used to make the “Against All Odds” music video from. 

Basically, you got James Woods playing the scumbag character that’s become the not-really-kidding parody of himself, Jeff Bridges as a down-on-his-luck football player, and Rachel Ward is the broad. Bridges owes Woods a favor and off The Dude goes to tropical paradise to find the runaway broad. With absolutely zero effort, Lebowski fucks her and falls in love with her. The end? I wish. Then Webster's stepdad shows up and we find out Bridges’ character’s big secret - He shaved points off a football game for money!!! What a total fucking scumbag! His character is such a piece of shit at this point of the movie I don’t even want to finish it, but I’m hoping Woods kills him and it’s the only reason I press on. That doesn’t happens. Woods croaks and some crooked millionaire forbids The Dude from seeing the broad again. The end. What a turd!   

What was I saying? I’m very bored and watching and writing about movies didn't work.

They say to write what you know, so I thought why not just rehash the whole Year Of Music thing?

Ladies and gentlemen! In the spirit of just ripping myself off I give you The Better Late Than Never – 2015 – Year Of Music!

For the rest of the year, I’ll schedule two albums a day – one classic and one new. We’ll take the weekends off and then I’ll puke out little stories about how cool I am and how the music somehow pertains to my life. Sound good?

The March playlist will pick up somewhat from where 2013 – The Year Of Music left off. We’ll try not to repeat classic albums from great bands but move along to the next selection from their discography. We’ll also play a little catchup. I didn't listen to much last year. As far as I was concerned there was only one album worth listening to that was released in 2014 and that was The Afghan Whigs Do To The Beast, which we’ll hear on March 30. So, a lot of the month is dedicated to what a bunch of d-bags on the internet consider to be the “best of” last year.

There you have it….
