So good, Tom. As for the WaPo critic, it’s not that I dislike his criticism so much as it is so easy to just ignore it. My essentials remain Ted Gioia, Geoffrey Himes, Robert Christgau, Robert Bentley, Nick Dedina, and you Tom Moon.
I used to follow Greil Marcus closely … but now mainly just read his responses in his Ask Greil postings on his Substack. When he responds, he is in a much more positive mood than when he just writes his regular offering.
