Norton Records Tribute

For any of you who might have missed my tribute to Norton Records this past Wednesday on Top Shelf Oldies, here it is on a bright and shiny brand new MP3 file. Last weekend was a blast and for those of you who were unable to take part in the festivities, or those of you who were there but want to relive the good times, you can go to my pal and photographer extroadinaire Jeff Cuyubamba's page on Garagepunk NYC to check out his pics. I hope to get in another post or two before the end of the year so for now I will just wish everyone out there in Cyberland a Happy Thanksgiving.

Happy Anniversary Norton Records

November 2011 marks the 25th anniversary of Norton Records. The festivities were held this past weekend - from Thursday thru Sunday night and I have to say it was one of the best weekends I have had in a long long time. I will be paying tribute to Norton on my monthly radio show on Top Shelf Oldies tomorrow night, Wed., Nov. 16 at 8 PM EST. I apologize for the last minute notice but if you can't make it to the show I will be posting it online later in the week. Mucho thanks to Billy and Miriam for 25 years of some of the best Rock & Roll ever.
