This is really cool.
50 years after its release, Pink Floyd’s “Wish You Were Here” finally has a music video, and it’s cool as hell.
Enjoy:
I absolutely love this song… and it has extra meaning now that my husband is deployed to Kuwait this holiday season.
Shout out to director Justin Daashuur Hopkins and production company Son&Heir for making this happen.

Today is the day!
One of my favorite Rock bands of all time Aerosmith have dropped their EP with British rocker Yungblood called “One More Time”.
And it’s honestly pretty badass.
Here’s the tracks:
Of, course, the single released a few weeks ago “My Only Angel” which is kicking ass on rock radio right now:
“Problems”:
“Wild Woman”:
“A Thousand Days”:
And, naturally, a cover of an Aerosmith classic “Back in the Saddle”:
I’m pretty damn impressed.
Steven, sadly, can’t tour anymore due to vocal issues… but he can still record (obviously) and do a show here and there. I’m happy that they teamed up with the carrier of the Rock torch Yungblood.
Yungblood did have to cancel the rest of his 2025 tour dates due to health issues (Rockstar life, man), but will be hitting the US hard in 2025, and dates are selling out.

Rock and Roll is not dead, people.

Did you know that KISS once recorded a Country and Western song?
Me either.
Apparently, back in 1975, KISS recorded a Country/Western song called “Mistake”, and they included it on their “Dressed to Kill” 50th Anniversary Box Set.
It’s not horrible, either:
Yeah, that’s actually pretty damn cool. I’m glad they put it on their new box set.
Also, here’s Paul Stanley performing an acoustic version on the KISS Cruise a decade ago:
The “Dressed to Kill” 50th Anniversary Super Deluxe box set is available now on major streaming services, with CD and vinyl editions available for pre-order on the official Kiss website.

As promised, Judas Priest released a version of Black Sabbath’s “War Pigs” today, featuring the late Ozzy Osbourne on some of the vocals.
It all started this Summer when Judas Priest couldn’t make it to perform at the final Black Sabbath show, so to show their support, they performed “War Pigs” in concert, and then Ozzy decided to hit the studio with them to record the track before his passing.
It’s rockingly bittersweet:
Ah. Legendary.
And the best part? All sales of this particular version go directly to the Glenn Tipton Parkinson’s Foundation and Cure Parkinsons.
Rock on!

Aerosmith (well, half of Aerosmith- Steven Tyler and Joe Perry) have teamed up with British rocker YUNGBLOOD for a heavy-hitting new song “My Only Angel”, and yeah, it kind of rocks.
I mean, how can it not with these three?
I’m here for it! Honestly, YUNGBLOOD is definitely getting my attention now. Once I heard him performing live at the VMAs last weekend with Steven and Joe, I was like, “Ok! I’m in”.
Which is good, because the three have a collaborative EP called “One More Time” dropping November 21st.
Hell yeah!

Post Malone is really impressing me lately.
I remember hearing that he was going Country and thinking “Oh Lord, really?”
But I feel like he’s really proving himself in the genre, and totally leaning into the Nashville lifestyle.
He’s now getting attention for an impromptu version of The Eagles “Take it Easy”, and it’s pretty damn solid.
@postmaloneDirty Dave on the keys
Pretty damn good.
My only complaint is that it’s only 13 seconds long.
Can we get more pleaseeee?
Also, I like him better without his signature autotune.
Also, Post Malone is working on his 2nd Country album, and he’s saying it will be along the more traditional Country route.
Fingers crossed!

Ok, I was totally loving this.
One of my all-time favorite Southern Rock bands- Lynyrd Skynyrd- teamed up with Jelly Roll for a pretty solid rendition of “Tuesday’s Gone” as a part of Lynyrd Skynyrd’s upcoming album “Celebrating 50 Years-Live at The Ryman”.
Now, “Tuesday’s Gone” is one of my absolute favorite songs of all time, and this was, in my opinion, a pretty cool performance of it:
This song hits me deep in my soul every time.
One of my core memories is being 21, front row at a Skynyrd concert at Skullbone Music Park in Skullbone, TN.
June 4th, 2004.
Me and my best friend Erica singing this song at the top of our lungs in the pouring rain…
It doesn’t get better than that.
“Celebrating 50 Years- Live at the Ryman” will be available on June 27th, and I can’t wait for the rest!

Mad respect to this band for keeping is going for so long, and still delivering!

Damn.
Dua Lipa just earned some more of my respect.
I’ve always liked the pop star, who has a great, strong voice and catchy songs… but I didn’t realize how good her vocals actually are until just now.
She brought her “Radical Optimism” tour to Melbourne, Australia, and took a chance at covering the iconic Aussie band AC/DC’s “Highway to Hell” in concert, and it paid off I’d say:
Damn, Dua Lipa.
Yeah, I had no idea she had that in her. Mad respect!
Check out where she’ll be next at DuaLipa.com
She definitely went up a few notches for me with this performance. Well done!

Ok, I admit it.
I’ve kind of, sort of started watching “American Idol” again.
My husband and I watched it religiously for years, then kind of got bored with it, so we moved on.
Well, now my three-year-old son is obsessed, and so we keep it on, as he gets super excited anytime someone sings.
This performance got my attention last night… a high school student named Bryson Quick auditioned with a really cool Country take on Pink Floyd’s classic “Time”:
Pretty damn cool…
As a Country and Classic Rock fan, I can definitely appreciate that.
And yes, “American Idol” is staged as hell… but there is some great talent that comes from the show, and I’m really loving Carrie Underwood as a judge this year.
Catch Season 7,467 (or whatever we’re on now) on Sunday and Monday nights on ABC.
Guess I’ll drink the Kool-Aid for my kid’s sake!
