Birds of a feather:  The family that rocks together, flocks together!

No one can cause you more joy or more sorrow than a family member.  Music is often used as a means of working through these complex relationships.

Get familiar with Cat Stevens, Neil Young, Shinedown, Death Cab For Cutie, Kansas, Bruce Springsteen, Bread and Dan Fogelberg.

Is it in the ear of the beholder?

We know it when we hear it.  Sometimes it's found in the most unlikely places, such as the music of King Crimson, Trio, Nick Drake, The Beatles, The Who, The Cookies, Neil Young, Tori Amos and Three Dog Night.

Don't forget your Dramamine!

Since the first signs of life crawled from the primordial ooze, we've been longing to return to the water.  Climb aboard!  We're taking an ooze cruise!  

Set sail with Procol Harum, Aquabats, Toad the Wet Sprocket, Jars of Clay, Jack Johnson, Gordon Lightfoot, Styx and Led Zeppelin!

Junior!  Share your guitar with your little brother!

Hear the sibling revelry of Johnny and Edgar Winter, CCR, Heart, Beach Boys, Oasis, BTO and Van Halen!

Even hard rockers can have a soft spot.  The question is, is the soft spot in their heart or in their head?  Let's bring things down a notch with Black Sabbath, Faith No More, Spinal Tap, Death, Dream Theater, Uriah Heep and Rush.  You can't leave it turned to 11 all the time!

Not the Boston basketball team, and not the Blarney Stone.

Much older than Merry Olde England, the Celts are a race that date back to the 6th century BC in the Alps.  They ultimately wound up in the western, more primitive parts of Britain.  

What sort of rock did the ancient Celts listen to?  Who knows!  But their spiritual descendants are making music that is primal, fundamental and earthy.  

Pull out your penny whistle and pipe along with Fairport Convention, Steeleye Span, Jethro Tull, The Young Dubliners, The Cranberries, AC/DC, The Decemberists and Fleet Foxes!

They haven't invented GPS for music yet.  It ususally takes an artist a couple of albums to truly find their muse/groove.  Since you typically get to know a group once they're famous, it can be a revelation to work backward into their past. 

We've got wet-behind-the-ears artists Judas Priest, Scorpions, Jerry Garcia, Queen, ELO, Elton John, Bee Gees and Rod Stewart.

Without Jazz, Rock as we know it doesn't exist.  The Americans were listening to the Brits, but the Brits were listening to Blues and Jazz from America.  

We're swingin' with Donald Fagen, Steely Dan, Rickie Lee Jones, Flower Kings, Mars Volta, Miles Davis, John Coltrane, Jennifer Batten, Spirit, Guess Who, BTO and Burton Cummings!

We need more cowbell!

Pound the skins with Rush, Van Halen, King Crimson, Mike Portnoy, Nirvana, Foo Fighters, The Beatles, Led Zeppelin, Steely Dan, Sam Cardon and Kurt Bestor and Mew!

Are you thick as a brick?  Don finally gets to meet his number one hero, Ian Anderson!  We include interview clips from Mr. Jethro Tull himself along with some of our personal favorites from their monumental catalog.
