#1230: 101 Dumpsters: Top Five & 2025 In Review

RECORD STORE TALES #1230: 101 Dumpsters: 2025 In Review

Dear friends and strangers,

As we gather and recall the past year, it is important to remember the many times we have sat here together before.  Most years since 2018 have been years of change.  2025 is no exception.  Always setbacks, losses and triumphs!  Let’s have a look back the good, the bad, and the awesome!


Part the First

2025 represented a personal shift away from writing and more towards videos.  The reason for this is two-fold:

1. The Community changed from primarily writers, to YouTubers.  Whereas I used to do writing collaborations, now I am invited onto YouTube shows.  Collaborations abounded in 2025!  I became a regular on The Contrarians Live, with a total of 27 episodes in 2024-25 (Full list of 27 episodes can be found by clicking here).  Many of these included Martin Popoff – pinch my younger self!  I also did several episodes of Rock Daydream Nation with Peter Kerr, My Music Corner with Johnny Metal, Tim’s Vinyl Confessions with Mr. Durling, Darcyska with D’Arcy Briggs, Grant’s Rock Warehaus with Mr. Arthur, Slogan’s Rock and Metal Extravaganza with Sidney and sometimes Logan, Rock Show Critique with Joey Suto, Off the Charts with Dan Chatrand, and of course, a couple amazing episodes on The Collection with Mr. John T. Snow (more on that later).   The biggest channel I appeared on in 2025 was Pete Pardo’s Sea of Tranquility.  I did two episodes with them, both hosted by Jamie Laszlo.  This has kept me well busy!

2. 50 Years of Iron Maiden.  We debuted on January 10, 2025 and are still rolling with the Maiden!  We’ll be done mid-2026.

It has been an incredible year creatively.  There is a lot to be proud of.  Videos appeal to a different audience than written articles, and so we’ve lost people along the way, but one must always follow their creative muse.  I have been making videos since 1989.  With the tools we have now, it is an old burning passion that is now easy to follow.  There were still written some reviews in 2025, and there will be in 2026, but I must go where the wind takes me.  I’m not fighting it or questioning it anymore.  I’m just doing what I want to do.  Music always finds its way into everything I do.

 


Part the Second

We can’t talk about 2025 without talking about our dive back into interviews!  Lacking confidence, I swore them off a while ago.  Not including people that I consider friends, such as Robert Lawson and Tim Durling, 2025 was primarily dominated by six interviews, in chronological order:

1. Blotto:  Early in the year, I reached out to Blotto about an interview for their new movie, Hello! My Name Is Blotto! The Movie.  To my surprise, I got the whole band and movie director Rob Lichter as well.  This went so well that it created lasting friendships, our own “Blotto” names (Kitchener and Blocko Blotto), and a second interview coming in 2026.  This gave me the confidence I needed to do more.

2. Alan Niven:  Thank you John T Snow from 2Loud2OldMusic for inviting me to co-host his interview with former Guns N’ Roses manager Alan Niven.  It was for his book Sound N’ Fury which has still not come out.  John and I were fortunate enough to read it before “someone” had the plug pulled…and you can certainly guess who is probably responsible.  What a great interview experience this was!  Alan puffed his cigar and answered our questions thoughtfully and with considered wit.  A formidable man who treated us with nothing but thanks and gratitude.

3. Next Up was Bob Cesca from Camp Chaos, though this did not air for a few months after we recorded it, as it was slotted in for 50 Years of Iron Maiden episode 25: Visions of the Beast.  Bob was responsible for those “NAPSTER BAD!” cartoons in the early 2000s, and his love of science fiction and Rush made him one of the easiest conversations we’ve ever had.  Talking to Bob gave us another confidence boost.  I said to Harrison, “We should get in touch with the Blaze Bayley camp…”

4. Blaze Bayley is our proudest achievement to date, collectively and personally.  With very little notice, we were given an early morning recording time on a Monday.  What resulted is an interview that Harrison and I felt no hyperbole in calling “The Best Blaze Bayley Interview You’ve Ever Seen”  From Iron Maiden to mental health to science fiction and punctuality, Blaze was everything we hoped he would be and more.  To say we have interviewed someone from Iron Maiden, is a bucket list item we can check off.  A lifetime of wishes come true.  They say “Don’t meet your heroes?”  Harrison and I both disagree.

5. Rick Hughes from Sword was another big one.  Here is a guy who I have been listening to since 1987; even longer than Blaze by a good margin.  Dan Chartrand and I were both offered Rick, but rather than duplicate each other, we decided to team up.  The subject was Rick’s new solo album Redemption, but we went everywhere with this interview.  Opening for Motorhead, reuniting the band, and writing with Aldo Nova:  we covered it all on this excellent interview with a Canadian metal legend.

6. Tom Harper, known professionally as Harper, was a fun way to end the year’s interviews.  The only thing that can compete with anyone from Iron Maiden is a guy who played on a Kiss record.  Harper played bass on “Shandi”, and had a million stories.  Check out the episode that my mom called the “best ever!”  Even Broadway Blotto agreed!


Part the Third:  Top Five Albums of 2025

The part everyone waits for every year!  There is also an accompanying Tim’s Vinyl Confessions episode to go with my list, but for those who prefer to read… read on!

My music list this year is a delightful mix of genres and bands.  I love that a band well over 50 years old can put out my #1 album of 2025.   On the opposite side of the age gap is a hot young band out of Toronto.  In the middle is a British band that debuted in the early 2000s.  All of these albums are worth checking out, but please note my #1 pick is particularly special.

Here’s to the best of 2025!

5. The Beaches – No Hard Feelings

The Toronto quartet rolls on with another hit-filled new album.  Cutting edge rock & pop from a feminine perspective.

4. Ghost – Skeletá

Another band that simply rolled on with another album full of memorable classics… it’s Ghost!

3. The Darkness – Dreams On Toast

Vying for Album of the Year, it easily could have been Dreams on Toast.  An exceptionally strong album, and easily their best since Last of Our Kind.

2. Harem Scarem – Chasing Euphoria

Another contender for Album of the Year.  Reaching highs not heard since the early 1990s, Harem Scarem have a sound that they have mastered, and they continue to find new ways of writing catchy hard rock.

1. Styx – Circling From Above

When I finally got my hands on the new Styx, I knew immediately that the Battle of 2025 was over – finished!!  New(er) members Terry Gowan and Will Evankovich have brought fresh sounds to the first rock band I ever liked.  That’s three incredible albums in a row from Styx!  Progressive rock and beyond.

Tim’s Vinyl Confessions Ep. 754: Best Albums of 2025

 


Part the Fourth:  Personal Stuff

Another years of highs and lows on the personal front.   My Aunt is in a care facility; she has a hard time remembering us.  We also lost our beloved elder.  Losing Grandma shortly after her 101st birthday was surreal.  She’d had so many health scares and recoveries, that I mourned her multiple times in the last five years before she finally passed.  I was so happy to see her make 101 years.  We saw her on her birthday, and that was the last time we saw her.  I gave her eulogy, and some people say it’s the best public speech I ever gave.  Highs and lows!

There were a ton of big changes and challenges at home in 2025.  Renovations, which I’ve been talking about for years, have finally commenced!  New windows and doors are installed, and more purging of belongings we didn’t need.  I established a home office for working remotely.  That is probably the biggest change at home in 2025.  I haven’t commuted anywhere in a month now.  This has drastically altered my mental health, as I navigate new routines.  Fingers are crossed!

2025 also represented a new personal peace.  Trying to be a better person year after year, I endeavored to put the past behind me and reach out to some old friends.  To my surprised delight, one of them reconnected with me, and we are friends again.  The one that I once publicly said would never talk to me again, has been back in my life for a year.  Another declined my olive branch, but I’ll take this win.   Working towards a more peaceful life is a good goal to have, and it doesn’t mean you can’t still listen to angry heavy rock!  Though I certainly can’t rock physically as hard as I used to.

One thing that I am slowly learning is that years tend to get harder as you age.  We lose people, and you can never predict that the the next year will be a year without funerals.  The last part of 2025 has been dominated by physical pain and anxiety.  Painfully, I am forced to realize that the body breaks down as we abuse it, year after year.  Physically, though I am taking care of myself by trying to eat better, and practice better mental health, my body is betraying me.  New pains become familiar pains.  Some go away for months and surprise you with a return later on, always at inconvenient times.  This year was the year I dropped my cell phones into a dumpster, and took a dive for the worse.  I am still paying for that mis-step.  There are good and bad days for pain.  Today is a particularly bad one.  Healing must continue in 2026.


Part the Last

In these uncertain times, we can only hope things don’t get worse next year.  Nobody can say what the new year will bring, but I do know we’ll have plenty of new music to digest.  New tours, as Journey, Iron Maiden, Guns N’ Roses, and even Rush and Triumph roll into 2026.

I don’t want to end the year on a bummer.  I can’t promise that 2026 will be the “best year ever!” or that I will reach newer and higher accomplishments.  I can only promise that I will continue to follow my creative muses.  I have many creative hats.  I’m a videographer, a podcaster, a writer, a drone pilot, and a cook.  You’ve been with me as I’ve shared my journey, on these subjects and more.  Journey on, I will.  More adventures.  More food.  More new discoveries.  More MUSIC!  Even years ago, when I “quit” writing about music, it still found its way into my work.  Every drone video has a kick-ass soundtrack, and every fictional story I’ve ever written has a soundtrack to it (whether you can hear it or not).  Music has been my life since 1977, when John Williams first opened my ears with the bombastic sound of brass, percussion and strings.  It’ll never go away.

I end this year with a message of hope.

I have learned that nothing is permanent.  The present sometimes feels like it, but nothing lasts forever and soon our new “normal” will be quite different from today.  If I can reconcile with the most unlikely of old friends, then there is always hope.  Hope for the future.  Happy 2026, and let’s continue to break new ground…together.

#1206: I Can’t Help the Feeling I Could Blow Through the Ceiling…

RECORD STORE TALES #1206: I Can’t Help the Feeling I Could Blow Through the Ceiling…

 

Two steps ahead, but one step behind?  It’s still progress.  It may not feel like progress, but it is.

In 2024, we had our shelf disaster.   My priceless collection spilled forth unto the ground, knocking my spirits down with them.  But we got back up again and rebuilt.  We rebuilt despite the following furnace replacement, requiring my precious collection to be move again.

Now in 2025, we have prevented yet another shelf disaster.  I returned home from the lake to find another set of shelves slowly peeling from the walls.  I stopped it in time, removed the heaviest items, and prepared to make plans to replace the shelving.  This will be a more difficult task this time, as it will also require me to tear apart my stereo system and place it on the new shelving.  Not an easy task; there are so many cables it’s like black & blue spaghetti.

It’s hard to keep up.  We have so many projects.  We continue to pare things down and get rid of excess possessions.  We continue to clean up and organize.  We continue to replace broken household items.  It’s an uphill climb and the list keeps growing.

New TV, new cable box, new rug, new blinds, new computer, new this & that…

I can’t help the feeling I could blow through the ceiling sometimes.

Bicyclelegs: Marillion – The Sequel To Success: Clutching At Straws (w. Mike Ladano)

As promised, I have returned to Bicyclelegs’ excellent YouTube channel for a THIRD round of Marillion.  Last year, we discussed our favourite songs from each studio album from 1983 to 1995Then, we covered the rest! This time,we take a deep dive on what some consider to be the best of the original Marillion four:  Clutching At Straws.

This episode is available now!

 


Welcome to The Sequel To Success! In this series we will be looking at the album that came after a huge album for an artist and discuss whether the follow up was a success or failure both artistically and commercially. Today Mike Ladano from Grab A Stack Of Rock joins me to discuss Clutching At Straws by neo-prog legends Marillion. This was the follow up to their platinum selling (in the U.K.) album Misplaced Childhood which had also produced the hit singles Kayleigh and Lavender. We go through the album track by track, analyse where it succeeds (and maybe where it doesn’t) and discuss what came after (in this case, quite a lot!).

Bicyclelegs: Marillion – Favourite Song From Each Album – Pt. 2: 1997 – 2022

As promised, I have returned to Bicyclelegs’ excellent YouTube channel for a second round of Marillion.  Last year, we discussed our favourite songs from each studio album from 1983 to 1995.  Now, we cover the rest:

  • This Strange Engine
  • Radiat10n
  • marillion.com
  • Anoraknophobia
  • Marbles
  • Somewhere Else
  • Happiness is the Road Part 1:  Essence
  • Happiness is the Road Part 2:  The Hard Shoulder
  • Sounds That Can’t Be Made
  • Fuck Everyone and Run
  • An Hour Before It’s Dark

As usual, I changed up some songs at the last minute.  This started as an easy task, but ended with more difficulty as there are albums that just didn’t hit me and others that I haven’t spent enough time with.  But here they are, and here are the songs I liked best.


Welcome to another episode of Favourite Song From Each Album. In this series we look at the catalogue of an artist and pick our favourite song from each studio album chronologically. Today Mike Ladano from Grab A Stack Of Rock joins me to talk Marillion. Last time we picked our favourite songs from the first 8 studio albums (link below). Today we come back to cover the rest of the catalogue (1997 – 2022). Enjoy!

#1172: Top 5 Storeplay CDs – A Personal List

A sequel to #167:  Top Five Albums That Got Us In Shit At The Record Store
and #27:  Store Play

RECORD STORE TALES #1172: Top 5 Storeplay CDs – A Personal List

Let it be said:  The Beat Goes On had a lot of rules about what could and couldn’t be played in store.  You couldn’t scare off Grandma, shopping for the new NSync CD for the grandkid.  Therefore, Metallica’s Black Album was banned from store play.  Musicals, classical, and a large chunk of rap (language!) was banned.  Certain bands were banned outright:  Kiss & Rush.  (Tell me that wasn’t personal against me!)  Therefore, any time I could break the rules when bosses were not around, I would try to get away with playing music that I actually liked.

Another rule stated that you must pick five CDs of different genres, put them in the changer, and hit shuffle.  Me?  I preferred listening to albums, not shuffles.  But I was a good little employee 97% of the time.  This story is about the other 3%.

Here is a list of my Top 5 CDs that I loved playing at the Beat Goes On, whether it was allowed or not.


5. DIO – Holy Diver 

Most definitely NOT allowed to be played in store!  I didn’t care.  The boss man was out of town one day in 1996, and I knew I wouldn’t be caught by anyone that mattered.  Tom Morwood, who worked at our Waterloo store, popped in that afternoon to check out our jazz section.  We had just opened a few months earlier.  Upon hearing Holy Diver blasting from the speakers, Tom remarked:  “Holy Diver?  Wow.  That’s ballsy man!”

I didn’t own Holy Diver yet and I was checking it out for myself.  There was a lot to love, such as “Caught in the Middle” and “Don’t Talk to Strangers”.  I also played The Last In Line around the same time, and loved “Egypt (The Chains Are On)”.  It was a great way to discover classic music.  Which, of course, wasn’t the point of working in a used music store and trying to sell CDs.  “Nobody buys Dio,” reasoned the boss.  In ’96, he wasn’t too far off.  But I didn’t get caught.  Tom wouldn’t rat me out.

4. BLUE RODEO – Just Like A Vacation

This 1999 double live album came out when I was running two stores at the same time.  I was in charge of my own store on Fairway Road, but that summer I was also managing T-Rev’s store in Cambridge.  He was off helping put a new franchise together in (I think) Ajax Ontario, and I wasn’t given much choice in the matter.  I suppose it was a great compliment and a testament to management’s confidence in me, to give me two stores to run, but it sucked.  I felt like I was in exile when I wasn’t at my own store.

When this was a new release, I listened to both discs in sequence.  The acoustic balladeering and jams of Blue Rodeo really helped soothe that homesick feeling.  It’s a fabulous album.  In particular, the live version of “The Dimestore Greaser and the Blonde Mona Lisa” really hit.

3. MARILLION – Radiat10n

Same location, back in exile, but a different summer.  I discovered Marillion in 2000.  I had heard some of the Fish era stuff, but not the Hogarth.  This controversial album was on the shelves, so I put it in the player.  Mark Kelly looked a little weird on the inside, with the designs painted on his bald head, but let’s give it a shot.  By the end of the shift, I knew I was going to buy it.  I put in on a shuffle with four other discs.

As soon as it came on, I said, “Ah this must be the new Marillion singer.”  Steve Hogarth perked up my ears. Several songs jumped out immediately:  “Cathedral Walls”, “Under the Sun” and “The Answering Machine” in particular.

While my bosses might have scolded me and said “Don’t play Marillion, you’re not going to sell any!” a decades long obsession began by playing it in store.  So there you go.  The balance sheet doesn’t reflect that kind of lifetime impact.

2. The Candidates – Meet The Candidates

This Cambridge band included bassist/vocalist Neil McDonald, who also worked at our Cambridge location.  I genuinely loved this album he made with the Candidates.  Many of the songs connected with me in a big way, such as “Barely Bruised”.

They didn’t love that I played this frequently in store.  It was for sale, but it was unlikely that I would make a sale just by playing it.  People liked buying CDs with bands and songs they already knew, generally.  I was given a pass because, frankly Neil was favoured by management.

The reasons I played this in store so frequently are really simple.  One, I genuinely loved and connected with this album.  There are still songs, such as “Who’s Your Daddy Now?” that still connect with me.  “Sold your soul for a photograph, I tore it up and had the last laugh.”  I burned some bridges when I started Record Store Tales, and while I don’t know for sure that Neil was upset with me, I think it’s pretty likely.  I’m sorry about that – I’ll always think fondly of him and this band.

1.    – The Box Set

The closest I came to a breaking point, before I finally quit the store, was when I was working (exiled) to a miserable location in Oakville Ontario.  I have written extensively about this experience.  The customers were generally snooty and holier than thou.  A story about an asshole lawyer was a favourite with early readers of Record Store Tales.

The only good thing about Oakville was that I was working alone all day, and no bosses came there.  It was like working in another province, such were the frequency of the visits from head office.  The drive was really difficult and the mental health situation was not good.

And so, I played all five discs of the Kiss Box Set in sequence.  Because fuck you, boss.

Best song exclusive to the box at the time:  “Doncha Hesitate”, a classic sounding Kiss demo featuring all four original members, intended for Destroyer.

Had I been caught, I would have been given a boatload of trouble. But mental health is a thing too, and stuff like this helped keep me sane during a difficult few months managing two stores at once.  I was pushed so close to the edge, that it was a matter of luck that I survived.  And Kiss.  And that’s not hyperbole.  Playing the music I loved made the experience survivable, and that’s barely.

Thank you Kiss.


And that’s the list.  I hope you enjoyed this trip down memory lane.

Top Five Marillion Christmas Tunes featuring Todd Evans and the Debuts of bicyclelegs and Davey Cretin on Grab A Stack of Rock

Merry Christmas from Marillion! A happy Christmas present:  all the way from New Yawk City, Mr. Davey Cretin joins Grab A Stack of Rock as surprise guest!  Davey comes aboard with an already epic cast:  bicyclelegs, also in his debut, and the returning Todd Evans.  Together we broke down our favourites from a large pool of seasonal Christmas songs by Marillion.

Bicyclelegs has 26 Marillion Christmas releases, dwarfing my 19.  More Christmas albums than studio albums.  Though there was a little bit of repeat on some favourite tracks, there was also one clear winner.  You’ll have to watch to see which one.  There was also a bit of a discussion on a certain Christmas song made famous by Mariah Carey.  Who did it better:  Carey, or Marillion?  I’m sure you can guess my preference.

From carols dating back to the 1600s, to drunken covers and originals, we ran the gamut of styles.  Though there was levity, there was also clear passion for this band, their musicianship, and what they mean to each of us.

Next week, there will be a special live presentation of three older Grab A Stack of Rock shorts, with new intro and outro by me.  I hope you will check it out.  I even included an easter egg for you to find.  Meanwhile, I’ll be busy recording a super-fun episode with Peter Kerr at Rock Daydream Nation.

Check out the Marillion show below:

Marillion Christmas: Top Five Christmas Tunes by Marillion, with Todd Evans & bicyclelegs

GRAB A STACK OF ROCK With Mike and the Mad Metal Man
Episode 81:  Top Five Marillion Christmas Songs with Todd Evans & bicyclelegs

Todd Evans is back to talk Marillion once again!  He brings with him Australia’s own bicyclelegs, with whom I’m covering favourite tracks from each studio album on his channel.  These two progressive rock professors will be joining me to discuss our favourite Christmas songs performed by Marillion.  The band have recorded both covers and originals, and tonight we’ll brief you on what we think are the cream of the crop.

I have 19 Marillion Christmas albums in my collection; for the physical media buffs, I will show you each one.  For simplicity’s sake, one could also use the compilation A Collection of Recycled Gifts, which in its extended format has 15 songs to choose from.

Please join us live in the comments section tonight for some progressive rock Christmas fun.  There may even be surprises.

Friday December 6 at 7:00 P.M. E.S.T. / 8:00 P.M. Atlantic.   Enjoy on YouTube or on Facebook!

Bicyclelegs: Marillion – Favourite Song From Each Album – Pt. 1: 1983-1995

I am so excited to appear on Bicyclelegs’ excellent YouTube channel for the first time!  To talk about Marillion is just an extra treat for me.

Bicyclelegs approached me a few weeks ago and asked if I’d be interested in picking my favourite song from each (studio) album.  Immediately I agreed.  Considering the depth of the discography, he decided to split this into two episodes.  This is part one:  the EMI years.  Four albums with Fish, and four albums with Steve Hogarth:

  • Script for a Jester’s Tear
  • Fugazi
  • Misplaced Childhood
  • Clutching at Straws
  • Seasons End
  • Holidays in Eden
  • Brave
  • Afraid of Sunlight

I found myself changing my lists up to the last day, but I think I’m happy with how this turned out.  What you will find in this show is a lot of love for some great songs, a little bit of history, and a lot of great music.

Here is what Bicyclelegs had to say:


Welcome to another episode of Favourite Song From Each Album. In this series we look at the catalogue of an artist and pick our favourite song from each studio album chronologically. Today Mike Ladano from Grab A Stack Of Rock joins me to talk Marillion and pick our favourite songs from the first 8 studio albums (the EMI years). We will come back in a month or two’s time to cover the rest of the catalogue. Enjoy!

 

An 8-track Holy Grail, a Marillion box set, and a Saga at its end, with Tim Durling and Aaron KMA – Grab A Stack of Rock Special Edition!

GRAB A STACK OF ROCK With Mike, Aaron KMA and Tim Durling

Special Edition Episode:  An 8 Track Holy Grail & More

This video is years in the making.  More than just an “unboxing” video, this is a fun and informative episode that documents one man’s journey to collect his favourite bands on obsolete formats, and another man’s ability to find them.

About four years ago, Aaron provided Tim with a rare 8-track tape that he needed for his collection.  Another one of Aaron’s tapes went to Martin Popoff.  But there was one tape that Tim needed to “complete” a specific collection.  And this summer, Aaron found that one too.  He just has a knack for it, and it seems appropriate that it was Aaron who found this last tape.  There’s a story that goes with it, and three tapes that went to me as well!

“Complete” is in quotes, because this video is far more than just an unboxing video.  This is a philosophical (and fun) discussion about 8-track tapes, collecting, and genuine Australian bubble wrap.  We discuss breaks in the middle of tracks, altered track listings, and for good measure, a little bit about vintage Star Wars toys.  We also speculate on one tape that may still be out there, but remains unknown.

This episode is in two parts.  It begins with Aaron and I unboxing three beautiful 8-track tapes, and a number of birthday gifts.  Also inside that box was Tim’s tape, which I mailed immediately to New Brunswick.  The video cuts and picks up with Tim, ready to open his treasure in front of the cameras.

 

Clutching a Misplaced Script an Hour Before a Brave Holiday in Eden: Top 11 Marillion Albums with Todd Evans and Uncle Meat on Grab A Stack of Rock

Thank you to Todd Evans and Uncle Meat for a full two hour extravaganza of Marillion love!  Despite some connection issues, the Meat Man persevered and brought with him an interesting and sometimes surprising list for his Top 11 Marillion albums of all time.

Only three albums did not get listed by anyone.  Others appeared on all three lists.  In fact, all of us picked the exact same #11.

One thing is clear:  Each of us has an emotional connection to these records that we picked.  The music is personal.  It’s important to our personal history.  There was a lot of love for all eras of Marillion on this night.  Highlights:

  • Discussions on the making of certain records, such as Holidays in Eden and Seasons End.
  • Marillion’s knack for epic closers.
  • Concept albums, double albums, and live albums.
  • One album that made a list that isn’t technically a studio album.
  • Moments that make your skin vibrate.
  • Love for later albums including a lot of praise for An Hour Before It’s Dark and Marbles.
  • The mid-show break was a music video by Jacob Moon:  his cover of “Kayleigh”.
  • Sounds that can’t be made, and songs that should have been on the albums.
  • Remix albums and EPs.
  • Bonus tracks, B-sides and box sets.
  • and one vintage 2004 Front Row Club t-shirt!

Please enjoy this excellent love letter to Marillion, with lots of physical product on three formats (cassettes, CD and vinyl).  Thank you for watching!

 

Next week:  We are back at the cottage with another list show:  Top 5 Childhood Music Videos with Jex and Dr. K!
