S o v e r e i g n G l o r y Newz You Can Usez

Hey for a project on Sunset Blvd, I'm gathering songs that specifically mention or occur at locations on Sunset. Do any come to mind--any genre, any period, anywhere from downtown to Pacific Palisades and Malibu? I've got a big list of the obvious ones -- Motley Crue, Jan & Dean, Joni Mitchell, Beck, a ton of songs from the wiki page on LA songs, etc -- but am looking for deep cuts. Punk, country, garage, r&b, disco, rap, rock, new wave, grunge, etc. tips in comments section appreciated. 🤘 For example, Tom Waits, "Emotional Weather Report," which takes place near the corner of Sunset & Alvarado. #sunsetboulevard #alvarado #lasongs (at TOP Restaurant)

A few more ace selections from last night's killer Vinyl & 🥃 session: Y Pants, Cairo Gang, Tau Ea Lesotho and 'Music from Saharan Cell Phones.' #listeningsession #vinyl (at Echo Mountain)

Super proud to appear in this new collection published by University of Missouri Press. Included is the piece I wrote for the LA Times on a weekly karaoke night that's been held in Skid Row for almost 20 years. #wordsmatter #mizzou #mizzoujournalism #karaoke #la #dtla #skidrow (at Pasadena, California)
