When sound science speaks. Everyone should be listening. The COVID-19 pandemic has rightfully been putting lifestyle and better living back to the front pages. Wet markets are still abundant. Like SARS, H1N1 (Swine Flu) and BSE (Mad Cow), the world has been reminded of the origins of these illnesses. These are Zoonotic diseases passed on […]
Just because a market focuses on meats, does not mean it has to be avoided in order to buy produce. While I understand the opinions of many in the global vegan community who might disagree, hear me out. Where I live, there is a nearby small market with such a focus. It has “meat market” […]
My earliest memories of soda sipping revolved around a community rink. After spending some time on the ice, I remember my parents going to a machine with coins in hand. The sequence even stands out to me. One coin, then two at the same time for some reason. Brother would get a Pepsi while I […]

As I understand it, there was already a planned move for restructuring in the works prior to the pandemic. While I feel […]
It is a chapter of heavy metal that is misunderstood musically. It started in the mid 1980’s when Tony Iommi was still working to continue his platform for his masterful riff compositions. Vocalist Tony Martin joined the Sabbath camp during the process for recording The Eternal Idol. Ray Gillen had already recorded vocal tracks and […]
A recent instructional clip from one of my favourite bassists offered a brilliant tie-in to writing. He spoke about how resolution and music go together. A bass line has to have some sort of resolution. The greatest classic rock songs with great bass parts are about answering something. It’s the guitar chords, it’s the few […]
Ozzy Osbourne was gone from the band. Things were up in the air for guitarist Tony Iommi. Bassist Geezer Butler stepped away briefly, returning to record the bass for the album.
