Coming Attractions
Between day-job commitments, (happy) personal matters, and blog-related travel, these are busy days at Musoscribe World Headquarters. My goal is to deliver fresh, new content – usually 500-1000 words – every business day. And for more than three years going, I’ve kept to that goal nearly every day. Every rare so-often, however, I just don’t quite get a piece done in time for my self-imposed deadline schedule. Today’s one of those days. So instead I’ll take a moment to give a preview of upcoming content. Because, you see, I never, ever seem to run out of material.
Upcoming reviews of reissue/archival release include titles from Mitch Ryder, Toots Thielemans, Nektar, King Crimson, Pink Floyd, Vince Guaraldi, The Outlaws, Brewer & Shipley, Sanford & Townsend, Clover, Jackie Gleason, Graham Parker & the Rumour, Grateful Dead, The Residents, Cannonball Adderley, Dave Brubeck, Thelonious Monk, Dion, The Bill Evans Trio, Jerry Lee Lewis, Thin Lizzy, John Coltrane, Tangerine Dream, The Jackson 5 and much, much more.
I’ll be covering new music from Renaissance, Phil Manzanera, Bill Nelson, Brian Lisik, The Coal Porters, The JAC, plus much more.
Upcoming interviews include The Tubes’ Bill Spooner, The Durocs, Shoes, and Jeremy Spencer. And oh-so-much more, including more post-show coverage of the recent Americana Music Association Conference and Festival.
So stay tuned. And thanks — as always — for reading.

About the Author
Bill Kopp
With a background in marketing and advertising, Bill Kopp got his professional start writing for Trouser Press. After a stint as Editor-in-chief for a national music magazine, Bill launched Musoscribe in 2009, and has published new content every business day since then (and every single day since 2018). The 4500-plus interviews, essays, and reviews on Musoscribe reflect Bill's keen interest in American musical forms, most notably rock, jazz, and soul. His work features a special emphasis on reissues and vinyl. Bill's work also appears in many other outlets both online and in print. He regularly hosts lecture/discussions on artists and albums of historical importance (including monthly events Music to Your Ears and Music Movie Mondays), and is a frequent guest on music-focused radio programs and podcasts. In Spring 2023 he taught a history of Rock 'n' Roll at UNC Asheville's College for Seniors. He also researches and authors liner notes for album reissues -- more than 30 to date -- and co-produced a reissue of jazz legend Julian "Cannonball" Adderley's final album. His first book, Reinventing Pink Floyd: From Syd Barrett to The Dark Side of the Moon was published by Rowman & Littlefield in 2018, and in paperback in 2019. His second book, Disturbing the Peace: 415 Records and the Rise of New Wave, was published in 2021 by HoZac Books. His third book, What's the Big Idea: Great Concept Albums will be published in 2024.
