As is often the case, my favorite column in this month’s edition is “Listening To My Life” by Andy Whitman. Yeah, I know the guy and maybe that helps a bit, but his columns have been a consistent reason for me to revisit this magazine. I’ve got enough media hitting me already without it, but having a few writers on deck like Mr. Whitman and Bud Scoppa makes Paste worth my while. (And as a well-rounded, maturing sort of guy I need something to balance Spin, eh?) But where to keep up with the High-School Musical crowd? Apparently, the biggest song of the year is Rhianna’s Umbrella. I have never heard this song. Perhaps the grey-hairs are a misnomer no more.
Anyway, Andy writes about Joe Strummer. It’s like Chocolate and Peanut Butter. Pick it up. Share it with a friend.
