50 Little Somethings For Your Weekend

Sounds Good!

Feb 03, 2022

When I started this newsletter - a year ago pretty much to the day is when I signed up and sent out a first nervous intro! - I decided to write about not just music, also movies, TV and books. These things motivate me just as much. These things drive my world. Theres things are part of my escape. These things have shaped my personality. These things have occupied my time. And, besides. I’d had a blog on a news site for nearly a decade where I wrote only about music. It was time to shake it up and add in a bit more.

Of course writing about music is more than just the music - you give of yourself. You are writing about yourself when you are recommending music. You are dropping breadcrumbs…

But it’s been fun branching out to more than just that. However, I decided that Fridays should be a music-focus. And that I’d share a playlist on a Friday too. So whatever the topics was - there’d be music related to that, but also there’d be a playlist of songs and music I liked. It might have nothing to do with the theme of the post. Just a bunch of songs for you to take away and check out. To inspire your listening. You might like only two or three songs from that list. But it might help send you somewhere new.

Share Sounds Good!

Guess what? I’ve been doing that every week for 50 weeks! Today is the 50th time I’ve shared a Something For The Weekend playist.

So today, we start with the playlist - rather than end with it. And the rest of the post is just me sharing out all of the playlists. All 50. So you have them all in one handy spot. A wee celebration of a year of Substacking. (I know there are 52 weeks in a year - but I signed up and sent out my intro post in early Feb 2021, a week or so later I settled in on what my content would be…)

So thank for reading. And listening. And supporting.

If you are brand new today or very recently then take a look around. There’s a lot of content here. And your chance always to add your picks or suggestions, to make comments and criticisms.

But if you’ve been here since day one, my heartfelt thanks. And I hope you find reason to carry on checking in. And if you always meant to check out the playlists but forgot to go back, here they are…in order…1-50. I hope you find plenty to like and listen to. Happy long weekend to New Zealand readers.

Let me know if you find anything here that “Sounds Good!”

Sounds Good!
