What are you listening to? April 2026

Since I was away last week, have been doing the next yearly playlist - 1979

Though I must say, the usually fierce Pismo Beach trivia team captained by yours truly, did come in 3rd as opposed to higher in a recent city trivia championship - good performance but pub trivia these days is very millennial focused. As much as I try to keep up on trivia, I definitely have missed my share of Full House questions ;)

But we missed a Katie Perry Song, a Lady Gaga song, and an All American Rejects song - making me certainly realize that maybe I should throw in some more recent music (at least within the past 20 years) every now and then

Else I'm going to be like The Waco Kid in Blazing Saddles

Bruce Cockburn ~ Joy Will Find a Way (1975)



A fairly early album by the other Bruce - you know, the Canadian one. It has his trademark semi-quavering voice (not female voice as suggested in the RYM entry for this album) and solid guitar work. I only figured out how good his guitar finger work is after listening to his Speechless: The Instrumental Bruce Cockburn that came out in 2005; perhaps I should have caught on sooner than that.
