You can’t hurry love, but this week I’ll be hitting you all with a ‘speed round’ of the Five…
Here are this week’s tracks:
1. Jay-Z - ‘03 Bonnie & Clyde (feat. Beyoncé Knowles) (from The Blueprint²: The Gift & The Curse (disc 1: The Gift))
Mr. & Mrs. Carter rocking a cover (in the loosest term) of [...]

Rainy Days and Mondays always get me down…
Spring has finally sprung this week in New England and in a twist of fate it’s pouring outside (it’s been beautiful all week). I guess Meatloaf was right when he sang “two out of three ain’t bad” because it’s Friday and I’ve got The Five to keep me [...]

For most people, Friday’s just the day before the weekend. But after this Friday, the neighborhood’ll never be the same.

Guess who just got back today? Them wild-eyed boys that had been away, haven’t changed, haven’t much to say but man, I still think them cats are crazy.
They say absence makes the heart grow fonder, but we’re back! When we last met the five revealed my affinity for German industrial racket, Miles Davis, and deep [...]

I don’t know how the celebrities do it, winging from coast to coast to coast and never looking worn a minute for it. I’m back, nicely jet lagged and California Dreaming for this week’s five.
Last weeks “very special” pre-taped five covered everything from the cure for “Purple Ear Fatigue” to my penchant for my love [...]

Today’s very special episode of the Friday Five was pre-recorded live in front of a studio audience.
Hello… is it me your looking for? In anticipation of a hectic Friday afternoon I’ve opted to write up the five on Thursday night. Don’t hold it against me. Last week, while all over the map, had a unifying [...]
