Yep. REALLY enjoyed the songs and especially the sequence. Spanish Fly played right into Angie seamlessly. (I feel Angie is a song John McClane would love and enthusiastically sing using wrong words.) I am in awe of Mark Knopfler's lyrical guitar play - in many songs. Your track made me think of another of my DS favorites - "On Every Street." Give that a play and I bet you will do a repeat immediately. Then there is Peter Frampton. "Frampton Comes Alive" was the second double-album I purchased. That set was played into the dirt and the two-side cover saw its share of action also. The first double-album in my collection was Bob Seger and the Silver Bullet Band's "Live Bullet" recorded in Detroit's Cobo Hall. I highly recommend you give a listen to the "Travelin' Man/Beautiful Loser" track.
My wife and I started doing Advent Calendars last year and it's something I think we'll keep as a tradition.
I know it's controversial, but I still consider "Die Hard" a Christmas film because John MacLain believes it's better to give (@$$ whippings) than receive! :) A great recommendation, though.
Thank you for the shout-out and I'm in some great company. There are so many talented and funny writers here on Substack that it's tough to find them all. I always am appreciative when someone enjoys reading my little newsletter :)
Can’t wait to get home from work travel, pour some red and dial up that playlist!
Nice sharing some good and relevant sub stack posts - love Robert and Dan and really look forward to checking out the others I don’t know. Love baseball and the Red Sox! (Boston fans are more than half the allure.)

Kind of you to mention H.A.T., greatly appreciated! And I've definitely got to check out Joshua's newsletter, that's one I'm not familiar with.
The playlist, the Godwit, the quote ... love it! And thanks for the tip of the hat my friend.
Thanks for the recommendations! Just subscribed to Brad Kyle.
Great post, Bryan! Really super recommendations - I'm going to be checking out the ones I'm not already subscribed to.
Now I HAVE to watch 'Die Hard' again... I love that film!
