Who says rock 'n roll is dead? I believe Ms. Roan is one of the biggest pop acts currently making her way. And she does include a lot rock vibes in her pop music. But here she is with Heart's Nancy Wilson tearing up the always awesome Barracuda! These ladies are killing it!

Oh! And the number #1 album in the U.S. is rockers, twenty one pilots!

Long Live Rock! I Need it Every Day!🎸🎤🎹🥁

Digging into the final chapter of a master. A new David Bowie box set, poignantly titled "I Can't Give Everything Away," is coming, and a new review from Variety frames it perfectly.

This isn't just a collection; it's the full manuscript of Bowie's final, explosive creative act. The set covers his surprise 2013 return with The Next Day, the theatrical work of Lazarus, and his stunning, jazz-inflected farewell, Blackstar.

As Variety points out, this era wasn't a nostalgic victory lap. It was a forward-looking, artistically vital statement where Bowie was as challenging and innovative as ever. He wasn't looking back; he was crafting a deliberate and powerful coda to his own legend.

The title itself says it all. Even in his final works, Bowie left us with mystery, art, and questions to ponder. This collection recontextualizes his last years as one cohesive, brilliant final performance. A must-have for any serious student of the Starman.

What's your favorite track from Bowie's final era? Let's discuss.

Check out the full review here: https://variety.com/2025/music/reviews/david-bowie-i-cant-give-everything-away-boxed-set-album-review-1236515806/

David Bowie's final four albums, including the stunning 'Blackstar,' are compiled with loads of bonus tracks in the 'I Can’t Give Everything Away' box.

Gotta admit, we were kinda lukewarm fans before this happened. (Funny videos, we'll give 'em that.)

But testifying at the PMRC Hearings on Sept 19, 1985, well that turned us into superfans! He rocked it, wasn't gonna take it, and we appreciate it, then and now!

Got another RNRA Short dropping next week about Dee, and the PMRC and more. Keep an eye out, and all you awesome supporters will get it early and ad free!

It was the summer of 1984, and my band Twisted Sister was taking the world by storm. With our angst-filled teen anthem “We’re Not Gonna Take It,” we were dominating music radio and television airwaves, and igniting the fire of rebellion in the hearts and minds of American youth. As we rode in ...
