Top 5 Albums of 2019
In the past I’ve done a Top 10, but this year it became muddy after 5. So I did more honorable mentions instead. Over the years I’ve learned that seeing other people’s lists of favorite music is a great way to discover new music.
The post Top 5 Albums of 2019 appeared first on A Raconteur Named Brad.

| A very thorough book that reads more like a definitive Everly Brothers encyclopedia than a biography. But it's very informative. I think it's pretty clear that there was some difficult inner-turmoil in the family that will never be explained or under ...more | |

Hey there Brad! Thanks for the friend request - I recognize you from Twitter and it's nice seeing a familiar face. :)
Hi Frank! Thanks for reading my bio and checking in! It wasn't until about 12-15 years ago when the Internet became so filled with information that I learned this about Franklin W. Dixon. I, too, was flabbergasted when I read it because I was just like you growing up - clueless about how these books were written. I still have a lot of my old books. My daughter started to read one (almost 9) but got sidetracked. Maybe some day she'll try again. They might be a little outdated for today's child.
Hey Brad, I just read your bio and am shocked [seriously] to learn that Franklin W. Dixon was a pseudonym -- and a collective one at that! I guess at the age that I was reading those books, I didn't know about pseudonyms, and wasn't experienced enough of a reader to detect style differences. Whatever -- I think I need a drink now.

Thanks for the invite Brad. Congrats on being published- I'll make sure to check out your books! :)
