Songwriter/Guitarist Tom Guerra “Sudden Signs of Grace” is the fourth solo album from songwriter/guitarist Tom Guerra, following the success of “American Garden” (2018), “Trampling out the Vintage” (2016) and “All of the Above” (2014). After a recent experience crafting music for The Yardbirds, Guerra got back to writing songs for himself. According to Pete Prown, music editor for Vintage Guitar magazine, “With his previous albums, Tom established himself as a fine rock and roll guitarist… ‘Sudden Signs of Grace’ shows his growth and new direction as a songwriter steeped in the Laurel Canyon school of songwriting.“ “Sudden Signs of Grace” contains nine new original tunes including the single "Lover's Time," and two covers: “Streets of Baltimore” as popularized by Gram Parsons, and “Gimme Some Water,” an early Eddie Money composition. Said Guerra about his late friend Money “When I heard Eddie was sick, I recorded one of my favorite tunes of his and sent him a copy.” Former MTV VJ Martha Quinn, Money's longtime friend, also gave Tom's version a thumbs up. Longtime collaborator Kenny Aaronson (bassist for Bob Dylan, George Harrison, etc.) said "Tom is a great songwriter. He has great pop sensibilities, and I really like his way of crafting a melody. He is a sensitive and keen observer of the human condition as one will hear in his lyrics." Several tracks on the new album are tight, 3-minute songs recalling the lyrical and melodic creativity of Tom Petty, one of Guerra’s favorite songwriters. “I always loved Tom Petty’s economical approach to writing and try to live by his mantra of ‘Don’t bore us, get to the chorus’ on these songs.” Other tracks, including “It’s All in the Skies” and “Just Like the Sun” were inspired by Guerra’s love of nature. “Just Like the Sun” (featuring former Queen/Mott the Hoople pianist Morgan Fisher) begins as a ballad then blasts off into a powerful rocker. The title track, a compact stunner, was written after Guerra heard a preacher proclaiming, “we’re all looking for sudden signs of grace.” They may just find it in this song and in this album. Recorded prior to the Covid-19 worldwide pandemic, Guerra felt compelled to release it now because “people need music, especially during times like these.” - Peter Gerstenzang, Writer, NY Times Purchase/Contact: Tom.Guerra

Detroit-style pizza is unlike any other pizza out there. It has a thick yet fluffy crust and crunchy crispy edges all around the outside thanks to deliciously melty mozzarella cheese. It's pizza you have to experience for yourself!
As deteriorated as this house looks in this picture (taken several years ago), it's fallen into greater disrepair today. Built in 1893 for businessman William Livingstone (Livingstone Lighthouse), the French Renaissance home was one of the first projects by Albert Kahn, for the firm of Mason and Rice.

The location depicted is in the Japanese Alps: The section of the Tateyama Kurobe Alpine Route linking the Tateyama station and Ogizawa only open from mid April to November, the reason for this hiatus is wintry snow, snow on this section reaches a thickness of 20 meters the most amazed of all is that in mid-April, much of the snow still lingers, so you have to make real corridors of ice to get through that stretch.For those wondering (like me) how the snow is cleared from this road, this video shows the equipment needed. Posted for Richard and Dottsie, who got the brunt of the 30" snowfall that hit northern New Jersey this week. Text credit Genjutsu. Photo via Gizmodo. Addendum: A hat tip to Karl, who found at Vimeo a video taken while driving through the "snow corridor." I had no idea it was so long. But what startled me was that where there are no pull-off lanes, drivers just stop and park their cars in the road. (!)
