Specially numbered "Party Rock" playlists

Shortly after I got spotify, I found I was hearing too many good classic rock/hard rock/heavy metal songs and didn't have a place to put them.  I had previously tried a pair of playlists called "Party," which was a list of music I'd like to DJ for people on the dancefloor, and created the party rock playlists in the process.  I have just reached 100.  In celebration, I'm going to look back at a little experiment I ran with the playlists in the last few months, making them themed.  Most of them are based on one year's worth of releases/performances, the first one was based on a decade, rather than one year, the 92 one is based around the general time period (a more accurate title would've been 91-92), the 89 one has music released and one in a movie from the year I was born, as well as a generous helping of my personal favorite songs, and 100 was strictly a "current favorites."

2/21/2020 Releases of Note

This week, like last week, has one album I'm seriously looking forward to more than the other releases.  Last week, it was a supergroup made of members of 80s Rock Bands.  This week, it's an 80s Metal Superstar.

Ozzy Osbourne-Ordinary Man: Possibly the last studio album from the famous metal legend who started out fifty years ago with Black Sabbath.  This album has a large number of guest talent, such as Seattle's own Duff McKagan of Guns N Roses on bass, the Red Hot Chili Peppers' Chad Smith on drums, who has also drummed for hard rock singers Sammy Hagar and Glenn Hughes, Slash contributing guitar work, a duet with Elton John, tracks with Post Malone and guitar work from Rage Against the Machine/Audioslave guitarist Tom Morello.  Ozzy sums up his career in the title track as such, "Many times I've been the bad guy, been higher than the blue sky and the truth is I don't wanna die an Ordinary Man."  I am seriously looking forward to this release tonight and also hope to soon hear when "She Is Here" and "She Is Everywhere" will be released, in terms of major releases in music I'm looking forward to this year.

2/14/2020 Releases of Note/Mini Movie Review

The Birds of Prey album and movie were both awesome, the movie also had Heart's "Barracuda" and Joan Jett's "I Hate Myself For Loving You," as well.  It was also nice to see Mary Elizabeth Winstead since she played Ramona Flowers in the Scott Pilgrim movie, and Margot Robbie was awesome.  The movie reminded me of Deadpool and the Harley Quinn comics I've loved in the last decade.

Not much is happening musically this week that I feel is going to be really great, there's only one release I'm looking at that makes me really feel it'll be good.

Black Swan-Shake The World: This is an album by a Frontiers Records supergroup, in other words, a group the label made out of members from bands they've signed.  In this case, you have singer Robin McAuley (best known for his work with Michael Schenker), guitarist Reb Beach (Winger/Whitesnake), bassist Jeff Pilson (Dokken/T&N/Dio/Foreigner), and drummer Matt Starr (played with a band named Mr. Big and Ace Frehley, but not the drummer for Ace Frehley when I saw him).  The result is a powerhouse rock hand that does feel like it's "shaking the world" as the album title states.  Part of this is the good blend of guitar, bass and vocals especially on the title track, which has been a single since last December.  This might be because Reb Beach and Jeff Pilson also made a cover of Ozzy Osbourne's "I Don't Know" for a tribute album some time ago, so they have good chemistry because they know each other.  Reb Beach also worked for Dokken for a short time, but I don't remember if Pilson was with the band during that time or not.  Anyway, this sounds, from the singles and samples, like a fun release, and I'm really looking forward to it.

2/7/2020 releases of Note

Last week brought the surprising releases of new singles from Demi Lovato and Hayley Williams, as well as three tracks from Billy Ray Cyrus.  This week looks to be rather interesting, with four notable releases scheduled.


Birds of Prey album-An album of pop, rap and alternative pop singers who are all women tied in to the new DCEU movie about Harley Quinn and the Gotham City superheroine group Birds of Prey.  The Birds of Prey traditionally include Black Canary, who is a professional singer who has the "Canary Cry," a hyper-sonic scream that can shatter windows and flip over cars.  A song is credited to her on the album.  Another typical member of the group is the Huntress, who is typically depicted as a crossbow-wielding super-sniper who wants revenge on the mob.  In this movie, the character will be played by Mary Elizabeth Winstead, who played Ramona Flowers in the Scott Pilgrim movie.  The album features songs by Normani and Megan Thee Stallion, Saweetie, Halsey and K.Flay.  I have heard Normani and Megan Thee Stallion and Saweetie's tracks and they are really good, fitting the movie and Harley's character.  Halsey and K.Flay also do great work and I look forward to hearing their songs. 

Green Day-Father of All...: The major alternative rock band is back with an album that takes aim at the BS of the current administration.  I thought for a while I wouldn't like Green Day due to how political they are, then I saw Billie Joe Armstrong in the Joan Jett documentary and heard some of their music on Spotify which helped with some of the anxiety and anger I was feeling politically at the time, so I'm hoping this will help a lot of people who feel isolated and roughed up right now.

 Richard Marx-LIMITLESS: I mainly know Richard Marx as a songwriter rather than hearing him sing his own music, but he does have a nice rock-pop style and I feel this album will be worth checking out.

J.J. Cale-2 Meter Sessions #461: J.J. Cale is a 1970s blues musician responsible for songs covered by more popular artists, such as "After Midnight," (Eric Clapton) "Call Me The Breeze," (Lynyrd Skynyrd) and "Crazy Mama" (Billy Ray Cyrus).  There aren't many of his more famous songs on this album, but it's always nice to hear such an influential artist, especially since J.J. Cale passed away in 2013.
