Featuring "An Album a Day for 2010". I have so many cd's, and a lot of them are the crappy ones that I am left with because all the good ones were either loaned out or stolen from me by my kids. So anyway, for 365 days it is my goal to listen to the good with the bad, the classical with the punk, the sucky and the sublime, and then write something.

43. "I'm Good Now" by Bob Schneider (2004)



Look, ya'll. I found the coolest thing in the whole wide world. I can put links to songs on my blog now. Check it out:



Ok, so I'm kind of getting behind on my blogging. I certainly can listen to a CD a day, because I do that anyway, but it's awfully hard to find the time to blog about them all. So if I don't have anything earth-shattering to say I'm just going to put them up and say whether I liked them or not.

I'm digging Bob Schneider. All you 40-somethings (or over) out there who are stuck on the 70s, you should listen to Bob. I have to say that this album, when I first listened to it a couple of weeks ago, sounded kind of like he wasn't sure if he wanted to be "Texas Country" like Pat Green, etc., because there are a couple of songs on here like that (especially the title cut), but I have to say I have considerably warmed to this album. There's a kind of feel-good groove to this album, if you don't count the couple that seem out of place ("C'mon Baby" and "Bridge Builders"). But the more I listen to it the more I like it. It even has a nice pretty final song, "Getting Better", that is kind of lovey-dovey. Aw.

We should all like Bob Schneider. He is a hard-working Austin musician who deserves to hit it big because he's paid his dues and lord knows he's at least as good as a lot of the other crap out there.
