The Barry Manilow Task Force Project - 29 May 2008
Update:
The archive.org servers appear to be a little unsteady, so I’m sending the links to my last.fm page instead.

I just had a wonderful experience. Yesterday I was aimlessly surfing on the internet, kind of restless and feeling very unproductive.
Then I came over this project entitled Album-A-Day (applied crap art). It’s been running […]
The Smooth Side: Prefab Sprout - Life’s A Miracle - 20 May 2008
Good morning, good people. Welcome to the column you never asked for: The Smooth Side - an unforgettable ride through the dubious pleasures of smooth and non-confrontational music in the last 35 years. It may be Mellow Gold, yacht rock or marina rock, it may be soul, jazz-pop or rock (sort of) - it […]
MP3: No Hope - 07 Apr 2008
Here’s a song I wrote a couple of months ago. It’s a collaboration with my nephew, really. He’s 15, and he asked me to write a song for a school project. They were making a fictional short film about a dysfunctional family, and the song was meant to reflect the teenage daughter contemplating suicide. […]
Read Full Post »Muxtape - 05 Apr 2008
I can’t see them lasting very long due to the intricate legal web that entangles the entire music industry, but the guys over at Muxtape (I’m assuming they’re guys here) have set up a cool service where you can create your own mixtape by uploading a maximum of 12 mp3s to their servers for streaming.
It’s […]
Jack Jones! - 30 Mar 2008
What the world needs now: A blog post about the voice behind “Theme from The Love Boat”.
My good blogger pal Robert just came up with a rather absurd reference to The Love Boat show in one of his entries, and of course that instantly reminded me of the *groovy* theme song by the distinguished Jack […]
The Prefab Song (Go Through That) - 28 Oct 2007
Dear friends. Here’s another song written, arranged and performed by yours truly.
As the title promises it’s heavily influenced by Prefab Sprout and Paddy McAloon. My beautiful wife plays the part of Wendy Smith and I’m the crooner, McAloon-style.
I’m trying to be a just a little bit clever lyric-wise, but alas, I’m no lyricist… I hope you […]
I’m On Fire! - 24 Aug 2007
…or not.
Anyways, I’m making a lot of music these days, so here are links for three more songs in mp3 format.
True Love and She Said are upbeat pop-rockers. I sang more or less constantly for 24 hours, and something happened to my voice. I think it’s kind of cool, but I don’t know - too much Bryan Adams? Or […]
Amie Street Expands! - 06 Aug 2007
Hurry! Head on over to the music site Amie Street this morning. They have a lot of new partners and labels, and you can get a a good deal on some pretty fine music at no cost if you’re fast enough. They’ve rolled out a bunch of really good artists on their site today.
Their model is quite brilliant, […]
AC/DC on a Different Kind of Highway to Hell? - 01 Aug 2007
I’m certainly no AC/DC fan, and thank God for that. Today the band announced that they skip iTunes in favor of an exclusive deal with Verizon’s online music store, PC World reports.
So, as iTunes move in a slightly more customer-friendly direction with their fresh deal with EMI, providing DRM-free files with better sound quality, Angus and Malcolm […]
Free MP3!! New Song - 12 Jul 2007
A couple of weeks ago I promised never to post my music on this blog again.
So I lied. I composed a new tune today, and once again I’m using it as an excuse for a blog post. I guess it’s the exhibitionist hidden somewhere deep inside of me that craves attention.
It’s another self-penned lyric - as I mentioned in my […]
