Even though I grew up in Illinois, Bobby Orr was my favorite player and I loved the Bruins(probably because they were on the TV game of the week a lot). Other players seemed to be going in slow motion compared to Orr.

Always enjoyed P.J.'s work in Rolling Stone. He did as well as humanely possible to live up to the Gonzo standard established by the legendary Hunter S. Thompson at RS.

Lamm was my favorite, especially for his songwriting. When I saw them in 1975 he was the only one I asked for an autograph. There's a really good biography of Kath on YouTube, produced by his daughter. The Terry Kath Experience.

Robert Lamm's plea for leadership sounds even more timely now than it did in 1975.

Love this new cover of the Beatles Don't Let Me Down by Miles Kane

And I can't leave this one out

My top non-Cure pick
-
This is my No. 1. I could easily make an entire top ten consisting entirely of Cure songs.

I actually think I first discovered his music in Dec. 2020, but I'll go with Sam Fender. My favorite new artist this century. First two albums have hit No. 1 in UK and he's nominated for 3 Brit awards this year. Huge Springsteen influence.
-
Another more recent(2005) favorite of mini is Wilco's Kicking Television Live In Chicago
-
I love several of those mentioned, including the UFO REO, Head East, Live At Leeds, Pop Art, and Here And There. Also love Ramones Live and Springsteen's Live 1975-1985. But my all-time favorites are Cheap Trick At Budokan and U2 at Red Rocks.
-
Sparks are still great. Loved their album a few years back with Franz Ferdinand, FFS.
-
My top three would be be Roll With The Changes, Riding The Storm Out, and Someone Tonight( I always thought Someone Tonight sounded like a Raspberries song). Agree that the live album is great.

A local band(Champaign, Il) I used to go see all the time, the Elvis Brothers, were approached about playing the New Monkees but turned it down. They did use one of theirs songs though.
