\"\"This month marks the 12-year anniversary of this here Musoscribe site. I\u2019ve been writing much longer than that, but I started archiving\/posting my work online in June 2009. It seems like a lifetime ago.<\/p>\n

As I\u2019m currently consumed with finishing my second book, I\u2019d like to pause a beat and take the opportunity to glance in the rear view mirror for just a moment. Here are some highlights from the past. Specifically, pieces that ran on this exact date in years past.<\/p>\n

11 years ago I posted a profile of a local Appalachian fiddler<\/a>. <\/p>\n

10 years ago today I posted a fun Q&A with Danny Amis of Los Straitjackets<\/a>.<\/p>\n

On this day 8 years ago I posted my review of the soundtrack from the Big Star documentary Nothing Can Hurt Me<\/i><\/a>. Yeah, I know; every critic of a certain stripe writes about Big Star, and I\u2019ve done so many times. This album is essential for fans.<\/p>\n

From 7 years ago today: A definitive compilation of music from the pride of Winston-Salem (a city rich with great music figures), Soul & Swagger<\/i> from Rock Beat is a must-have. Dig this 2014 review of the album from The \u201c5\u201d Royales<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Three years ago I interviewed Josh Rouse. Here\u2019s that three-part feature<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Humble Pie drummer \u2013 and all-around great guy \u2013 Jerry Shirley wrote the foreword for my first book. Sometime after that \u2013 two years ago today, as it happens \u2013 I posted a feature based on another conversation with him in connection with a Humble Pie reissue-of-sorts<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Even though Musoscribe is home to nearly 3,800 posts of mine, I somehow still feel like I\u2019m just getting started. Lots more goodies to come. Thanks for reading.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
