White bucks, seersucker, summer gear, Hamptons weekends, the smooth sounds of the 70s; it all officially kicks off on Memorial Day weekend.
PS: Michael McDonald has a new memoir out ("What a Fool Believes," natch) + it's fantastic: https://www.harpercollins.com/products/what-a-fool-believes-michael-mcdonaldpaul-reiser?variant=41098892247074

I've been on this incredible tour through the early rock and roll of the 1950s
For me, this has largely been the overlooked decade
It's joyful and thrilling

"Sad songs about happy things" (the first time, as a kid, I can recall the sweet/sour combo of melodies that could make you cry attached to songs about endless, bottomless love)
I've long since lost track of how many weddings and funerals I've attended that have featured this song; suffice it to say, "a lot."
God only knows what we'd been without him 🙏🏻

Hey tyler hopefully this doesn’t violate some PI.FYI golden rule
But after nearly two years of writing, editing and arguing, my book about the EP is coming out in May and can be preordered here:
https://hozacrecords.com/product/aifl/
The book is about the origins, history and cultural impact of the EP since these little objects first started coming out in the 50s.
Over 50 of my music biz friends then helped me shape the list and review the top 200 ever released, according to us (ha).
For those of you who are into this kind of geekery/snobbery, I can’t wait to hear what you think. A labor of love, as all books are! ❤️
