Music Friday – Yello
It’s been a while since I have posted a track for Music Fridays on Solid Principles. Lately I’ve been slowly buying up 7 inch vinyl releases of MX-80 and Yello issued on Ralph Records via EBay. This item arrived during the week, and given the antics of a certain Alaskan bus tourist, this song seemed [...]
Goodbye Captain Beefheart
If Don Van Vliet’s life could summed up in an expression, it would be “People Never Noticed’.

You might have heard his Nancy Sinatra production era (These Boots Are Made For Walking), or perhaps his Nancy Sinatra duets (Some Velvet Morning/Jackson/Ladybird). The Hazlewood era that intrigues me the most, [...]

(Late) Music Friday: Easybeats ‘St. Louis’
From time to time, I like to post some music on Fridays, however circumstances yesterday prevented me from posting this item. With the recent trip from Obama to John Cronin’s (Solid Principles co-founder) home town, plus interviewing Ed Martin had me think of this track. The Easybeats were Australia’s most successful ‘rock music’ export during [...]
