There are some albums that are just so powerful, or historical, or just plain amazing, that it takes me a little while to muscle up the nerve to try and tackle writing a post about them.

One of the two or three regular readers of my blog, who chooses, perhaps out of laziness, to go by the moniker Anonymous, left this comment: Great 60’s Male Vocalists in No Particular Order: John LennonElvis PresleyPaul JonesPaul McCartney Roy Orbison [...]
Quarterback D.J. Stefkovich scored on a 1-yard run in overtime to lead Rhode Island to a 12-6 upset win over Massachusetts in rainy and windy conditions on Saturday.
A possible admission of the excess that marred Gregg Allman's past efforts outside the Allman Brothers Band is the title of his 1997 solo release, Searching for Simplicity.
