My page on Internet Archive, featuring not only my own stuff, but other things from my collection, with lots of rarities, including things that didn't make it onto YouTube. Enjoy!

Scored this one off eBay, since I don't see it around the used-LP stores anymore. Used to be pretty common, and now it's as if it never existed. Nothing out of the ordinary, and a follow-up to 1980's "Greatest Hits", but corresponded to the "Dance On Fire" video collection.
Long before "Vacation", long before "SNL" and "National Lampoon", Chevy Chase was part of an obscure Boston-area band called Chamaeleon Church, which only made one album, but highly regarded by collectors of the short-lived (and failed) "Bosstown Sound" craze.
We now know what the "mystery hole" in the wall in the Bradys' kitchen was used for...and how convenient for Alice!
Thunderclap Newman: "Hollywood Dream" (1970)
Their sole album, produced by Pete Townshend (who also plays bass on it) at his home studio. An old favorite, with some great songs and outstanding guitar solos by a teenaged Jimmy McCulloch. Too bad this was their only album!
The "games room" at the Overlook, and Danny's "bombing the universe"...now we know what that means!
I had no idea there were video games there in the finished scene, so I'd always wondered what that meant. #TheShining
Happy birthday to original Deep Purple bassist Nick Simper, one of my favorites, and an influence to my own playing (I seem to have copied from him the technique of playing the bass with my right thumb). His two albums with Warhorse are also great as well.
