Hard to believe 2024 is already coming to a close. It was another solid year for rock music with fantastic new albums from some of my favorite new bands and legacy acts. One album stood out above the others and was my clear #1: @TheWarningBand2 "Keep Me Fed".Here are my Top 25!

#OnThisDay in 1986, Quiet Riot released their 5th album "QR III" featuring my summer of '86 anthem The Wild and The Young. The album was a commercial disappointment, peaking at #31 on the Billboard Top Pop Albums chart and it did not achieve any certifications. #80sMetal

#OnThisDay in 1984, The Cars 5th album "Heartbeat City" peaked at #3 on the Billboard Top LP's & Tape chart. This one was the soundtrack of the summer of '84 for me, especially 2nd single Magic. Still have the cassette I bought in June of that year. #80s #80smusic

34 years ago today I was at Kingswood Music Theatre (saw so many great shows there!) just north of Toronto to see David Lee Roth on his A Little Ain't Enough tour. Cinderella and BulletBoys opened. They need to reopen this venue!
