I think I was 13 years old and just starting to develop some musical tastes of my own. I was in a record store in a mall in Indianapolis, flipping through the "S" selections, probably looking for a Rod Stewart album, when I suddenly saw something that froze me in my tracks. It was stunning to see my name on something other than my football helmet or a gym bag, let alone an . Wow! Somebody with my name...

The St. Paul Pioneer-Press mentioned the title of this puzzle as "Popular Music." But this puzzle, composed by Richard Silvestri, shows just what will happen if those tree-hugging environmentalists get their way. A song won't be able to make it onto the top 40 without the title mentioning a tree in some positive light. Maybe Dolly Parton will rewrite her 1977 hit for the geriatric set, making it Here...

Think there aren't races worth following this early in the season? Think again. Joe vs. Joe is among those that should be thrilling.

While I agree with a few of the points made here, I'm not sure how I feel about the messenger. Why won't the Globies rip apart Entercom stations these days? Is the relationship now that cozy? Dear WTKK: You...

The sonic drift is like some sort of Kontiki cross current, blowing pathetic pilgrims in their makeshift barks, half-ass dug-outs, and nut-job rafts of strung-together bottles and styrofoam, hurling wind-battered searchers into the blustery void, to land, half-mad, on shores peopled with distorted man-gods and leering stone giants. Crazy vegetation. When you're a pioneer, you've got to be ready to...

It can be brutally harsh. Key Quote: I always thought country would be the most hated, but it's only fourth. And we have Glenn Campbell, and Bobby Goldsboro singing "Honey."

Swamp Dogg is up there with the likes of Merle Haggard when it comes to tunefully bemoaning the sad state of the present. It's what he does best. But what do you call a jeremiad that's written from the fictional future? Some sort of speculative plu-perfect nightmare fantasy. This tune, "The World Beyond," was written by Bobby Goldsboro, if you can believe that. I’m sort of planning on going out on...
