“The gales of November came early” in these parts. So we’re hunkerin’ down with some cider (my honey makes a great recipe, with oranges), diggin’ on some great 2010 music (B. Folds, C. Gainsbourg for starters) and puttin’ together a sparse, minimalist, five-song CHAIN OF HITS (#56) for ya that’s all about the glorious 1990s. Work on it, and the new Bonus Beatles Brain-Buster question, during some of that November Rain you might be getting this week.
