In addition to the numerous hits & other great album cuts, this album also contains one of the coldest bass lines of all time on the song #VoicesInsideMyHead. Add in #Sting ‘s vocals repetitively singing the hook and you got yourself an absolute classic.

On this day in 1980, The Police released Zenyatta Mondatta. It hit #1 on the U.K. Albums Chart and delivered singles “Don’t Stand So Close to Me” and “De Do Do Do, De Da Da Da,” earning the band two Grammy Awards.

This is brilliant idea. Please go and vote at the link in @farfarraway.bsky.social ‘s post below to help bring it to fruition. I know that if it does that I for one would buy more than one of this proposed #Lego set. #IndependenceHall #BirthplaceOfAmerica #Philadelphia #America250

Loving the latest single #UnicornSoldier from #Monsieur @monsieurmusic.bsky.social It’s got great jangly #Funk guitars along with some of the smoothest vocals. This is vibe! Great for cruising, dancing or just chilling with good friends. Enjoy!

Described as "the last great boxing venue in the world" by Sports Illustrated, the Blue Horizon in Philadelphia was left abandoned for years despite its unique architecture and history. www.abandonedamerica.us/blue-horizon...

A brightly lit boxing ring is in the foreground in a large arena-style room painted blue with wood trim. Two sets of steps lead up to the ring.

This debut album #Nótaí by Irish musician #JPO’Duill @jpoduill.bsky.social is such a pleasant surprise. It is lofty & airy with the grandeur of #BaroquePop elements while also having a moody #IndieFolk #ArtPunk vibe on other tracks. His balanced lyrics have a wry sincerity.

@graigkreindler.bsky.social might know. And while he also usually paints baseball players from photos of old, I would suggest this photo should definitely be worthy of his consideration for one in the future bc man it is phenomenal!

On the surface, this was actually a win/win for both franchises. Cleveland gets draft capital sorely needed after the Watson swing & miss. Jacksonville gets a bonafide playmaker on both sides of the ball (like getting 2 players for one - ala the NFL’s Ohtani). It’s put up or shut for TLaw now.

One of the classics. Bob James from '74.
Fond memories of finding this in 80's Dublin - knew it had a break but never heard the full song. Couldn't get home on the bus quick enough to listen. Mind blown.

Sometimes a leader leads just as much by what he doesn’t say as by what he does. Jalen Hurts is definitely a leader who walks the walk which is why he was named to TIME magazine’s #TIME100

Jalen Hurts was asked if he’s going to the White House last night at TIME 100….said everything without saying a word

A big topic in this press conference with Howie Roseman and Nick Sirianni is about Jihaad Campbell’s versatility to play off ball AND rush the passer. Pass rush upside seems to play a big role in this pick.
