Finished Demo For My Next Album ~ Baby Knows
Saturday Jun 29, 2024
Saturday Jun 29, 2024
I love this song. Of course I need to rerecord the vocal and guitar part. I need a sax player for the instrumental break. And I think I should bring a drummer and a stand-up bass player into the studio.

On Naming My Next Album
Saturday Jun 29, 2024
Saturday Jun 29, 2024
So far, I haven't come up with anything that seems right. I'm sure it will appear or manifest itself, as they say, one of these days.
Nonetheless, I'm very happy with how the album is coming along.

Keep Giles Martin Away From The Beatles' Music
Saturday Jun 29, 2024
Saturday Jun 29, 2024
Leave The Beatles' music alone. Stop. Right. Now. Keep this no-talent wannabe nepo baby away from their music.
All anybody needs is the MONO MIXES—They contain every bit of information and musicality the Beatles and George Martin wanted to share with us.

Mike Campbell & The Dirty Knobs ~ Please Stop Trying So Hard
Saturday Jun 29, 2024
Saturday Jun 29, 2024
Everything about this album smacks of trying to hard to be perceived as a bad boy. Good bad, not evil, as the girl said in "Leader of the Pack."
Hipster rebellion signalling, forced, insincere, trying too damn hard. More appropriate for a guy fifty years younger.

The True Hippie Guidelines For Living, Vol. I
Wednesday May 29, 2024
Wednesday May 29, 2024
Inspired by the rules for living from the fake gangster of the YouTube channel Grim.Hustle, I thought I'd share some of my own rules. Don't get me wrong, I thoroughly enjoy Grim.Hustle and agree with a lot of what he says. As I've always told my sons, any True Hippie can kick any OG butt any day of the week.
I'm not a Deadhead, but I love this photo of them on the stoop of their apartment building in the Haight-Ashbury in 1966. I've always thought it hilarious that Pigpen is holding a rifle.

The Milk of Human Kindness

I witnessed a stranger's kindness to another stranger the other night in a Safeway parking lot. It was lovely to see.

Pop Down The Years (acoustic)
Saturday May 04, 2024
Saturday May 04, 2024
It's been over four years since I posted a version of this song. I listened to the album the other night for the first time in a year or more. Inasmuch that I don't like the sound most of my vocals—I paid a guy a lot of money to mix the album who did not know how to mix vocals (live and learn!)—the arrangements stand up. They are amazing, I don't mind saying. Available on iTunes, Pandora, Spotify, and Bandcamp, and everywhere!
