About

WELCOME
Bloggerhythms is a totally independent music blog for adults that grew out of my love of rock & roll and popular music. It began in April 2005 as an outlet for album reviews of mostly new music. Gradually, over time, it's focus has shifted toward older music but interesting new releases will still be discussed. More about that here.

ALMOST HITS
Almost Hits is an occasional exploration into songs that failed to reach the top 20 on the American Billboard Hot 100. Many have become classics despite what their chart position would indicate. You can find all of the songs I've written about here.

LAST ALBUMS
In the majority of cases recording artists' most revered and famous records are made early in their careers. Later, many of them will "jump the shark" - as the saying goes - or recede into the background as pop music tastes change. Unless you're a diehard fan of a particular artist many listeners will not even know what their final record is. I'm hoping to change that with another once-in-awhile series called Last Albums. To qualify, the album's tracks must have been recorded as a set of new material that was intended to be released to the public as a complete album but not necessarily the last one. Live sets, greatest hits or "best of" collections and compilations do not count, nor do posthumous releases of leftover tracks cobbled together to make a final album.

BURIED TREASURE
This occasional series unearthed recorded treasures that deserved a better fate and are no longer, or never were, part of the public's collective consciousness. Be sure to check here or you'll never know what long lost gems this site's archaeologists excavated from the dustbin of musical history. This series has been discontinued because the majority of what is currently posted on Bloggerhythms could fall into this category.

BLOGROLL & SIDEBAR
If you publish a blog that is mostly about music it's possible I'll add it to my blogroll. Whenever you post something new it will jump to the top of the list. However, in order to keep things relevant, I'll occasionally review the links, and if you don't post any new content for a long period of time it could be removed. You'll find the blogroll on the sidebar by clicking on the hamburger icon located at the upper lefthand corner of the homepage. The sidebar also lists the appropriate labels assigned to each post.

TWITTER, INSTAGRAM & BLUESKY
Be sure to follow along at BlueSky, Twitter, and Instagram where you'll be notified every time something new is posted. While visiting those places, you'll also find some additional content not discussed here. BlueSky is by far my favorite and it's a very good place for people who are no longer enjoying X, formerly known as Twitter. Give it a try. You can also find all of my social networking sites in one spot at Linktree.

BROKEN LINKS & VIDEOS
I periodically search for dead links and videos to keep the subject matter as interesting as possible. If you see something that needs to be fixed please let me know.
