Meet Pops Pluggs!
He’s cantankerous; he calls ’em like he sees ’em; he says what he wants to; and he knows he can get away with it ’cause he’s older than you! Are you ready for Pops Pluggs? He’s coming to www.brian-robbins.com this weekend … and things will be never be quite the same around here again.
The Pogues – The Very Best Of the Pogues
Let’s start right off by acknowledging the fact that if you already own The Best Of The Pogues, The Rest Of The Best, Essential Pogues, The Ultimate Collection, Dirty Old Town: The Platinum Collection, Just Look Them Straight In The Eye and Say … Pogue Mahone!, and/or an older album that was also named The […]
Rock Candy Funk Party – We Want Groove

This was the line-up for the Miles Davis Quintet circa 1969-1970 – a cast of players that began to take shape on Filles De Kilimanjaro and In A Silent […]
Stevie Ray Vaughan & Double Trouble – Texas Flood (Legacy Edition)
If you don’t already own a copy of Texas Flood, the debut album by legendary guitarist Stevie Ray Vaughan and his band Double Trouble, then you should. Once this album was released in 1983 the world of blues guitar – hell, just the world of guitar – was never the same again. Vaughan, bassist Tommy […]
