i used to listen to Jimmy Eat World, and for a short time it seemed they were going to eat it and take it over. Regarding no repeating lyrics, Bob Dylan was skilled at that. Or at least for writing 15 verses and no choruses. The song of his featured in my playlist post today, “Love Minus Zero” has no repeating lyrics. Its why his lyrics are often thought of as poems.
Great minds, Steve!! Dylan was the first artist I thought of when I was writing that! I was going to look for some others - John Prine, Townes Van Zandt, Elvis Costello, and oddly, I thought of “Rocky Racoon”- I had stuff going on and couldn’t follow up on those this week, but….
Michael, thank you again for your support, really appreciated. I’m preparing the first, what shall we call it, in depth anecdote for Brad to weave his magic on. ✨ I’m looking forward to see how this collab goes, it’s new territory for me, and TBH I’m feeling the pressure a bit,’coz like I say, quite often this was just another day at the office for me and quite often not so much happened, nothing seismic at least, just time spent working with musicians, many of whom were or now are household names… so let’s see, no pressure 😅 😜
Another day at your office would make a great television sitcom or a British spy movie, Nic! I’ll bet you have a great time with it - I’m certainly looking forward to hearing of all your adventures
Thanks for the tub-thump, Michael! Looking forward to seeing what can come from the collab with Nic! I say he has stories! He was down-playing the interest-level of them, so we'll see...but, I think we can present some riveting peeks behind the UK rock'n'roll curtain, circa '80s!
That, too, is what's got me stoked/psyched🤯....we've already covered the Hollywood/'70s rock'n'record biz scene with the 20 jaw-dropping articles by RCA recording artist, Stephen Michael Schwartz! Now, to add the '80s UK rock scene with Nic's behind-the-scenes adventures is a tempting lure all over again! Stay tuned, Michael Acoustic readers....and, thanks again, Michael!

Looking forward to it!
Thanks, Michael! I've even got a title for the series (because, of course I do)!
