“DD Review: Missy Elliott – ICONOLOGY.”
Score: 7/10 . Right away to Missy’s credit on this new five-track EP, which marks her first collection of new material in 14 years (although the apt will remember that “Where They from” track from ’15), the title seems to speak back to hip-hop greats — all the guy legends as well as allusions to […]
“Dolby’s Top 25 Meat Puppets Songs”
The Meat Puppets are a great American band and should absolutely be viewed as such. I know, I know, there’s a lot to sift through here. There’s their self-titled debut from 1982 which is basically close to being a bona fide bath of hardcore punk except the vocals sound like a chicken being castrated. There’s […]
“Dave Matthews Band’s The Central Park Concert is Not Typically Considered One of the Classic Live Albums of All Time… What the Hey?”
For the longest time I had been on this terrible HUMP with the Dave Matthews Band. My first impression, upon hearing “Ants Marching” on the radio in 1995 or so in elementary school, was, This is one crazy Blues Traveler song (maybe better than “Run-Around” and inferior to “Hook”). Then came the gaggle of “What […]

“Dolby’s Top 500 Classic Rock Songs of All Time (250-1)”
250 Bruce Springsteen – “Human Touch” This is another one where I’m sort of cheating and getting a little anachronistic, selecting a song that put out in 1992 follows Nirvana’s Smells Like Teen Spirit… well it was likely written before the release of that album and you’ve gotta commend him for going ahead with it […]
“Dolby’s Top 500 Classic Rock Songs of All Time (500-251)”
500 38 Special – “Hold on Loosely” Oh loosely goosey, you‟re such a silly goose for wanting to leave this guy, especially with all the classic songs they wrote although seeing as desperation seems to be the songwriter‟s formative artistic trait, it begs the question as to whether relationship steadiness and happiness are really actually […]

“Rolling Stumped”
Yesterday, a Friday, I found myself with a day off from work and a beautiful day, about 86 degrees, sunny and not too humid. I got a bunch of music listening done in early afternoon and then felt a little burned out on the projects I’d been working on, so it looked like it was […]
