..From the Music Desk

It's cold and rainy, the Red Sox home opener was cancelled, and I still have to my taxes. All in all, not a very cheery evening to come.

So...some musical/retail therapy seems in order. Lucinda Williams' new CD 'World Without Tears' ins now available in stores and I'm going to pick up a copy on the way home. Those of you in the Boston area may have heard the single 'Righteously' played on 92.5 The River - a great tune.

Looking further down the road of musical goodness, Liz Phair is coming out with a new CD on June 24th, just in time to see me through my annual 'What's-Wrong-With-The-Red-Sox?' panic.

And while I'm tossing out musical recommendations, no CD collection is complete without some of the following:
Social Distortion
The Ramones
Sleater-Kinney
Johnny Cash
The Replacements

Rock over London. Rock on Chicago.
