Just as the name suggests, My Liner Notes takes from the nostalgic art form of an LP’s liner notes, which can be found within the inner sleeves and inserts of dusty records and cassette tapes. The personal essays found on this blog contain anecdotal and factual material which celebrate the visceral and emotional connection we all share with music. These analytical, humorous, and often poignant opinion-editorials are always delivered with the kind of brutal honesty you can only expect from a music nerd.
The last My Liner Notes post of 2010 is short and sweet — emphasis on sweet.
Two of my favourite singles this year were Big Boi’s “Shine Blockaz” and The Black Keys’ “Everlasting Light”, ranking #14 and #15, respectively.
So it came as a welcome surprise when mashup artist Wick-it the Instigator combined the two songs for his “Everlasting Shine Blockaz” mix.
And while you’re at it, check out the rest of The Brothers of Chico Dusty, his mashup mix of Big Boi’s Sir Lucious Left Foot: The Son of Chico Dusty and The Black Keys’ Brothers.
Enjoy, and I will see you all in 2011.
