A few things about "If It...Thank you everyone! A few things about "If It's Tuesday..."<br /><br />When I started the blog, I wasn't too far removed from my retail days. I had many of my label connections in touch, as well as a very full mailbox every week. So the "new music" came to me. As time went on, the connections dried up, the mail stopped coming and quite frankly, it was a real slog listening to so much music that did nothing for me. When my ex-biz partner wrote up his most recent Best Of The Year list for Huff/Po, his opening line was, "The best thing about no longer owning a record store is that I don't have to listen to new music anymore." I kind of feel the same way, however curmudgeonly that sounds. I have way more fun discovering older artists with deep catalogues that got by me, or simply listening to what I love.Sal Nunziatohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09221629293545204260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4357001616333664522.post-35687292160891694542018-08-02T13:47:36.720-07:002018-08-02T13:47:36.720-07:00My favorite blog is 10!! thanks for everything, Sa...My favorite blog is 10!! thanks for everything, Sal!<br /><br />And I kinda miss those music reviews.

I have, and have had, numerous music blogs bookmarked, and for quite a spell -- I don't remember the specifics -- I would visit BW only occasionally; it wasn't one of the bookmarked ones. I'd see it in the blogroll off to the side of the one blog I HAD to visit every day, and if the title of the post of that day caught my fancy, I'd check it out. Somehow, over doing that enough times, I got hooked and found myself checking BW way more than my bookmarked blogs. So, duh, I bookmarked it. And for a couple years now there are two music blogs I HAVE to visit daily. The other one's for the tunes, but this one's for the tunes and talk. I hope you continue doing your thing here, and congrats on doing it this long!<br />C in CaliforniaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4357001616333664522.post-39185670307634494502018-08-02T09:20:41.268-07:002018-08-02T09:20:41.268-07:00Thank you, Sal for your wonderful gift that is Bur...Thank you, Sal for your wonderful gift that is Burning Wood.
