Friday Night Music-Pat Benatar

Friday, November 21, 2008

A search of my past blog posts indicates I haven’t put up a Pat Benatar video, unless I did so on my old blog. One of the mysteries of youtube is the fact that some artists are well represented, while with others there’s slim pickings. There’s only one decent video of Hit Me With Your […]

Come drinking

Wednesday, November 5, 2008

Almost forgot, but don’t you forget. Drinking Liberally, tomorrow night at 6:30. The Bulkeley House in New London, on Bank Street. We’re hoping to have a big crowd.

Friday Night Music-Alejandro Escovedo

Friday, October 10, 2008

A Liberal Drinker told me about this fellow, and sent me some links, for which I am very grateful, since it’s getting harder and harder to come up with new artists to feature. I’ll readily admit I never heard of the guy before, but he’s pretty good, and I like the fact that he appears […]

I can’t begin to even categorize this guy, but his music is great. A couple of examples: Big Country: [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FXHOyqHzupk[/youtube] A Moment So Close: [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RFwrJ1rd_xQ[/youtube]
