Two things unworldly: That version of When My Time Comes, and this entire production. I’m 65 and grew up with all the great singer/songwriters of the 60s and 70s rightfully revered by my generation as well as the current one, but I’m sick of hearing how music died after whatever decade you were in high school. I wish I could say Taylor is the best songwriter in the world today, but as great as he is, and he’s in my top five for sure, there are too many great ones to call any one the best. Not to mention that Paul Simon is still with us and still writing great songs today. The point is, we’re in a music renaissance right now. Of course there’s a ton of crap out there but it has always been thus. One of the biggest changes has been the death of commercial music radio. Whatever that shit is you hear when you turn it on, it’s irrelevant. The great ones don’t write for radio these days. Spotify, Pandora, KZbin, etc. don’t care how long your song is. Music is alive and in better hands than ever to anyone willing to look for it. Most of Taylor’s songs would never make it on commercial radio, but they are masterpieces of pop songwriting and worthy to stand beside anything the greats of my generation penned.

A couple of days ago I lost my Mother unexpectedly but I saw this video on Instagram and screenshot it to watch later. I adore this profile of Taylor Goldsmith of Dawes. Thank you so much for sharing it. A Little Bit Of Everything isn't just my favorite Dawes song, it's my favorite song period. What a beautiful solo rendition!

It took me way too long to figure out what Taylor Goldsmith (and DAWES) is all about. It's awesome. They are in their own lane, musically. I love how he explains the want and desire to continue learning and getting better. I can definitely relate to that. Always be a student of the game... never think that you have peaked. If you notice a plateau in your songwriting or guitar playing, try listening to a different style of music. Maybe it will inspire you to do something different.

There’s nothing more jarring than a commercial for Las Vegas in the middle of “A Little Bit of Everything.” At the very least, please put the commercials between songs. How disrespectful.
