This is a blog about recreational hobbies that I am interested in (music, TV, movies, books). I also talk about what's on my mind or things that happen in life around me.
Please feel free to post comments; I want this to be an interactive dialogue.

Today (May 21st) marks the thirtieth anniversary of Glow, the eighth studio album from Rick James. This one went to number 50 on the US Billboard Album chart (with a total chart run of twenty-six weeks) and number 1 on the US Billboard R&B chart.
This month marks the thirtieth anniversary of the release of the self-titled debut album from the Mary Jane Girls. The project came together when Rick James wanted to get his former background singer Joanne “Jo Jo” McDuffie a recording contract with Motown. The label wanted a girl group project, so James concocted the Mary Jane Girls.
