I wouldn't be on this list if not for your heroic efforts.
On the slim chance I win, I wonder if I could get Bill Kurtis to read my acceptance speech. The gravitas would be off the charts.

Happy B'day Townes. From my @illinoispress.bsky.social book, "The Hours Are Long But The Pay Is Low" from my time as a production manager and stagehand.

Come for the insightful answers to probing questions about my tastes in obscure music, running a label, and my new book (link in bio). Stay for my heretical opinions on Chicago style pizza.

Did you ever wonder about @thegrahamparker.bsky.social's thoughts about clowns? Wonder no more. He explains all in the Unchartered Sounds podcast. He also, ahem, mentions my book, grahamparkershowlinwind.net. Give it a listen. #singersongwriter #musicbooks #music #rockandroll #rockbooks #musician
In the spirit of the Winter Olympics, I shall be attempting a quad axel from my stool during the conversation. @marthabayne.bsky.social will be on hand for the inevitable first aid needs.

Two literary knuckleheads sitting on stools in front of bookshelves talking. Well, one of us is talking, the other is listening.

Brightly colored LP cover of "New Orleans Ladies" featuring a saucy photo of Irma Thomas in a white sequined dress, and her autograph reading "To Rob, love Irma Thomas
Do you have an artist, an LP, that, no matter what, elevates your mood? I believe every music fan does--and, dang, we need that record more than ever.
For me, it's #Irmathomas , the Soul Queen of New Orleans.

Perfect gift from my partner: Wings - The Story of a Band on the Run.
Wings were the most maligned of groups, yet every LP has Beatles quality songs amid the filler. They were innovative, risk takers & so much fun.

From albums that resisted the algorithm to films, books and documentaries that told the truth about power, fandom and exploitation, 2025 was a quietly brilliant year for music culture.
