Grandpa Rock Chronicles — Pt. 8: Vol. VI – Barroom & Honky-Tonk Edition

Neon Confessions & Barstool Gospels The soundtrack of jukebox saints, two-step sinners and nights that went a little too right.   Where the floor’s sticky, the jukebox never quits and the stories get better every round. This volume is a salute to neon lights , worn boots  and the eternal wisdom of a jukebox after midnight. It’s loud, loose and unapologetically human — music for dancing too hard, laughing too long and telling the same story one more time because it just gets better that way. These songs smell like whiskey , bar smoke and Friday night freedom. They remind us that joy doesn’t have to be perfect — just honest. 🎧 Listen while you read: Spotify Playlist – Grandpa Rock Vol. VI: Barroom & Honky-Tonk Edition First Round — Turn It Up George Thorogood & The Destroyers – Bad to the Bone ZZ Top – Tush The Georgia Satellites – Keep Your Hands to Yourself The Rolling Stones – Honky Tonk Women The Fabulous Thunderbirds – Tuff Enuff Beer-Stained Classics Lynyr...

Grandpa Rock Chronicles — Pt. 7: Vol. V – Love, Loss & Life Lessons

Ballads That Still Bleed True Because every generation learns that the heart has its own soundtrack — one you never quite outgrow.   The songs that taught us how to feel — and what it costs to care. This one isn’t for dancing. It’s for remembering — for driving alone after midnight, for staring out the window a little longer, for the moments that made us who we are. Here’s where wisdom meets weariness, where melody holds what memory can’t say. These songs taught us how to love, fall, forgive and keep moving. Every lyric is a scar. Every chord, a confession. Every chorus, a second chance. Because sometimes music doesn’t just play for you — it plays through you. 🎧 Listen while you read: Spotify Playlist – Grandpa Rock Vol. V: Love, Loss & Life Lessons The Tender Truths Bob Seger – Still the Same The Eagles – Best of My Love Fleetwood Mac – Silver Springs Tom Petty – You Got Lucky Bruce Springsteen – Brilliant Disguise Lessons from the Road Jackson Browne – For a Dancer Jo...

Grandpa Rock Chronicles — Pt. 6: Vol. IV – Campfire Nights & Cold Ones

Stories You Can Still Hear in the Smoke Where laughter outlasts the flame and every chord carries a memory.   When the day fades, the music gets real. This volume trades arena lights for firelight, distortion for harmony and stage dives for stillness. It’s made for late-night laughs, quiet reflection and remembering that sometimes the softest songs hit the hardest. These are the tunes for porch swings and pickup beds, where truth sounds better on an old acoustic and friendship feels like harmony in the dark. 🎧 Listen while you read: Spotify Playlist – Grandpa Rock Vol. IV: Campfire Nights & Cold Ones Crack the First Beer The Eagles – Peaceful Easy Feeling Bob Seger – Against the Wind Tom Petty – Learning to Fly John Mellencamp – Check It Out Jimmy Buffett – Changes in Latitudes, Changes in Attitudes Firelight Favorites Lynyrd Skynyrd – Simple Man The Allman Brothers Band – Melissa Crosby, Stills & Nash – Southern Cross Fleetwood Mac – Landslide Neil Young – Old Man The S...
