I was a diehard Trekker in the early ’90s.

That one person can drag us into a war without consulting or even notifying Congress, or our allies, or fully explaining to the American people why this is necessary, is absolutely bonkers.

Reminder that Congress has the power to stop all of this. Where the hell are they?

“Turn! Turn! Turn!” was the Byrds’ second album, which cemented the band’s claim to fame. The Byrds’ jingle-jangle electric 12-string sound was a significant influence that changed rock music forever. This particular LP is the OG with the Columbia 2-eye center label. #thebyrds #vinyl #classicrock

From reissue label Real Gone Music comes this funkified album of music from the 1973 blaxploitation flick, “Cleopatra Jones.” As the titular Cleopatra Jones, model/actress Tamara Dobson looks stunningly badass on the album cover. #vinylsky #vinylcommunity #ost #blaxploitation #tamaradobson #1970s

Multi-Grammy winner Roberta Flack passed away today, 24 February 2025, aged 88. Flack’s debut album, “First Take,” sold me from the get-go with her melding of jazz, R&B, and soul. Roberta Flack’s legacy in the pantheon of greats is assured. She’ll be missed. 😢🙏🏽

Mapquest is standing its ground on the misguided renaming of the Gulf of Mexico by letting you (yes, you!) rename the Gulf of Something yourself. As a fan of Jimmy Buffet and his impact on Gulf Coast culture, I hereby rename the “Gulf of Mexico” as the “Gulf of Margaritaville.” Parrotheads, unite!
