Last Tuesday was World Mental Health Day, and in case you missed it, The Ghost had a bit to say on the matter. My original intent was just to share a few songs that addressed the issue, but it soon became clear that the story was supposed to be much more than that. As a […]
Depending on your perspective, this coming weekend is either one of your favorite or least favorite weekends of the year. Our state is about to receive a major influx of Oklahoma natives this weekend for the infamous Red River Texas OU weekend. The Ghost is not going on official record as taking sides, although the […]
Back in my youth, Bryan Adams recorded a song called “Kids Wanna Rock.” Question the messenger if you will, but Mr. Adams certainly understood the youth of that time period. The Ghost has noticed that, lately, many of the kids could not care less about rocking out. It seems these young whippersnappers would rather dance […]
A few weeks ago, I was soliciting opinions on my personal Facebook account about things that readers might find more interesting, which would also help blog traffic. One individual suggested themed playlists. The playlist below isn’t really a theme per se, but The Ghost thought it might be nice to do a monthly recap of […]
I’m getting over an illness, so instead of commenting, I’m just letting these songs speak for themselves. Listen and enjoy. Anchor North, “Young” Ask for Joy, “Luna” Bangarang, “Wet Suit” Wet Suit by BANGARANG Better Now,”Back Pains” Better Now / Greg Cote & the Real Life Friends Split by Better Now […]
Ghosty season has arrived. Voting begins today, and will continue until Saturday, November 18th at 11:59 CST. Just click on the link that says Ghosty Voting and do your patriotic local music duty.

In the case of Particular People, however, their album Meat for Particular People came out early this summer. It’s a release that probably would have flown under my radar had it not been for longtime GOBL fan and friend Shelley. […]
I guess it’s time that I do a real Monday Mixteen with real comments with each songs. Because you’ve missed The Ghost’s commentary. Or at least that’s what I’m deluding myself into believing. Jessie Frye, “Honey” What better way to start the playlist than with a sweet pop song from Ms. Frye. Get it? Sweet, […]
It’s Labor Day, but The Ghost was hard at work creating another Monday Mixteen. OK, “hard at work” is stretching matters a bit, especially since this week’s edition is mostly without comment. Actually, I’ll give you two comments, free of charge. Notice how the Garrett Owen and Vandoliers songs are placed back to back? That’s […]
The Ghost needs to get some things off his chest, and those thoughts will be coming soon. In the meantime, there seems to be a plethora of great tunes coming out right now. Not only that, but during my time of silence, there’s plenty worth listening to that The Ghost has not shared. It seemed […]
