Melodic Marvel: Unveiling the Enchanting World of Unusual Musical Instruments
I am a huge fan of music. Some people say my love for music teeters on obsession and they might quite be right. I started collecting records (yes, the old vinyl ones with pops and scratches) in 1972. I was 12 years old. By 1997 I amassed a collection of more than 17,000 record albums and more than 12,000 seven inch singles. At my peak of record collecting I owned 30,000 pieces of vinyl.

Ode To The Wasp woman.
"Ode To The Wasp Woman" at Actors Temple Theatre is a very up and down play that has as many good things in it as it does pitfalls. The story has its premise in four actors who died prematurely. Sean Young who plays Susan Cabot, Douglass Everett Davis is George Reeves, Payton Georgiana is Barbra Payton and Josh Alscher is Alfalfa from "The little Rascals" fame.

The Emerging Nigerian Talents
In the heart of Lagos, where the bustling streets and vibrant rhythms of Nigeria's largest city converge, a new generation of music talents was quietly rewriting the story of the country's music scene. These were not the chart-toppers or Grammy-winners that the world had come to know, but they were the unsung heroes, the underdogs who were making waves in their own right.

To The Women in Hip hop
Females in the hip-hop culture have always held space in the genre for their skill, their trendsetting authentic style and some of the best music to reach fans and listeners everywhere. No matter what records or history that we make over the years, the way that Black women are presented and represented on the music scene [and the props that some may feel that we should not be getting], has become grounds for debate from everyone but us. That is until now, with the presence of social media and the changes that have taken place in the music industry as a whole. We as Black women are all beautifully different in the way that we show up in the world. I call us a special genre of our own. We as women know who we are defining ourselves for ourselves. We know this and yes, we absolutely can. Starting with the music, HerBrownProductions honors a few of the most legendary and influential female hip-hop artists. Whether it be their legacy, lyricism, style or records that make them similar or unique, the women will be honored for their inspiration from each era of hip-hop.

The Rhythm of Love
In the vibrant city of New Orleans, where jazz and blues filled the air, lived a young musician named Caleb. He was a talented drummer who had an uncanny ability to express the emotions of his heart through the rhythm of his beats. His drum kit was his confidant, and his music was his language.

'Searows' Sends us Soul-Searching. Top Story - October 2023.
Listen, I'm always a sucker for sad music, but Searows' discography offers so much more than that. In fact, it feels like a disservice to pigeonhole the Oregon-based folk singer's storytelling as simply 'sad music.'

A Song Of Vocal Tales
Introduction Almost every piece I publish on Vocal has a piece of music to go with it. I used to have a Facebook page called "For Everything In My Life There Is A Song" and very often when I read stories, a song or piece of music will come to mind.
