Global loudmouth for Green, the greatest pop-rock band Chicago ever knew, or didn't...new record out! Green's debut from way back in the day (that would be the 80s) was named #66 out of the greatest 200 powerpop albums of all time in John Borack's book called "Shake Some Action." See below in "friends" section for more about Green...
I've written scores of reviews over the years on rock, pop, folk, punk, country, garage, acoustic, dirty blues, alt-country, rockabilly, roots, jazz, soul, gospel, reggae, avant-garde, Americana and every other kind of music for Pop Culture Press, Innocent Words, Punk Planet, Welfare Music, Cosmik Debris, Rockzines, Alt-Country Pages, Blue Suede News, Consumable, and Indie-Music among others.
Also, I used to co-own Tar Hut Records (distributed through E-Squared/Sony, and Warner Bros). And so it goes...

Ever wondered what to do in the event of a nuclear threat?
A while ago I found stuff that inspired me to make this film:

Both artistic (ensure you get the background music!) and educational, it primarily comprises official British government civil defence advice.
Though source materials are quite aged, much remains relevant today.
I encourage all to visit the YouTube page to learn more (Show support! Rate! Comment!) and responsibly circulate as widely as possible, here: http://www. youtube. com/watch?v=UaIim3Rj7L4
Thanks for the kind comment. Sorry for the delay, but I've been putting the final touches on the debut record. It's up now on itunes and amazon (amiestreet, rhapsody, etc.) There are 2 sides: Sink and Fall. "Sink" is more pop and electronic; "Fall" is more punk and country. We appreciate all your support. Have a happy MWU year
