What is Mojo? Tom Petty's Roots Album
I liked listening to Bob Lefsetz' old Rhino Podcasts, but he doesn't seem to do them anymore. Or at least not on a regular basis. can someone explain what happened? Instead I have to settle for his blog, The Lefsetz Letter, and to be honest - and obvious! - it's not the same. The old Rhinocast was about music, not the music business. Music interests me, the business not. And then there is his voice which is sharp and whiny and not to everyone's taste. To me, however, his voice is big part of his appeal because you can hear his enthusiasm and sincerity.
I know that Bob has been sick and I hope he is doing well. I like to check in on him because sometimes he writes about some new stuff or some old music that I haven't thought about for a while - if ever. So, I enjoyed what he has to say about Tom Petty's new album. I bought it on CD, but from the sound of it, I can imagine the experience on vinyl would be awesome. Might be worth the investment, even though I only have a few new vinyl records in my stash.
Check out what Bob has to say about Mojo --- describing the album as an experience.
