Neilstones

One of the great things about Neil Young is the fact that his songs often reflect milestones in a person's life. There are plenty of songs that achieve this goal, but the ones I really want to point out are the "coming of age songs" that pinpoint exact ages, and I think really capture the feeling you get when you hit that time in your life.

Upcoming news

I must say, I'm ashamed to have neglected this half of the site. I was preparing to review the Blue Rodeo concert I attended, and completely didn't.
I do have some news, though. In the coming months (yes, I need to fill the time with content), I will be reviewing Bruce Springsteen's Magic and Neil Young's Chrome Dreams II, as well as the accompanying Toronto shows for each of them, which I will be attending!
In the meantime, I really ought to get down to posting on here more often.
Until next time,
JW

The Best Boss in the World

Two of my favourite artists fall into that category of "you either get it or you don't". One, who I'll talk a lot more about later, is Neil Young. And the other is "The Boss", Bruce Springsteen. When I tell people I listen to Bruce and the E Street Band, I keep getting a negative reaction (much to my surprise). Whether they don't care for the voice, can't relate to the music, or conjure up unflattering images of men in their forties in white t-shirts and bandanas belting out "BAAAHRN IN THA U-S-A!" some people just don't like Bruce.

The beginning
25/07/2007 - 7:36 PM
I'd like to welcome you to Key of J! Now that you've come here from Saturated Market, take off your suit and strap on a guitar. I'm still working on some leading content, but rest assured, this blog will kick off soon! So, just a few more soundchecks and the show should begin.
Thank you and goodnight,
JW
