A Treasure Trove Of Music Blogs!


Ain't the Internet grand? In the 1980's and 90's, it was easy for me to discover new music, what with Danceteria, CBGB's and the like going strong, but older or more obscure music? I was shit out of luck. There were used record stores around at that time, but unless I knew what to look for, I didn't know where to start, plus the cost was prohibitive (especially at the old Colony Records near Times Square, which dared to charge upwards of $50.00 for a ten-year-old, out-of-print jazz record).

Then around 2000 or so, the "Golden Age Of Music Blogs," as I like to call it, began, and it's still going strong - introducing thousands to old or formerly obscure music.
