Aging boomer. Here mostly for music, baseball (long time Cubs fan) and some occasional politics but not much since not much gets resolved here on social media.

A great thread for #InternationalWomensDay. Lots of forgotten artists from the early days of rock’n’roll.

It’s #InternationalWomensDay so I’ll be adding to this thread of women who inspired and innovated in rock’n’roll throughout, and where to start but with the great Sister Rosetta Tharpe, spiritual grandmother of all rock’n’roll guitarists? youtu.be/5fLWel645CM?... #musicsky #nowplaying #nowspinning

S. Gault, Unhinged (****): In form and content, Gault's third and best album nods to the heaviest parts of Lambert's landmark Crazy Ex-Girlfriend. If not up to that exact challenge-- who is?-- Gault acquits herself brilliantly on this lived-in set of ace covers (Buck Owens! In 2026!) and originals.

S. Hicks, ... This Blue? (***): An accomplished set of conventional modern blues, it's the lyricism here that isn't quite worthy of Hicks' singing and slinging. He shines brightest on the handful of moments ("Driftin' and Driftin'," especially) when the arrangements are the heaviest.
