Just in time for the playoffs, Billy D reviews a baseball book, Watching Baseball by Jerry Remy and Corey Sandler. Jerry Remy was once a valuable infielder for the Red Sox and Angels, now a beloved announcer for Boston.
Last week I visited my friend, Joe. He has a lovely back yard, with scenery perfect for simple songs. Today I made two music videos for songs from the album, Up. The first one, "Winner" stars the sweet and beautiful Lola:
Then there's "Sorry Buddy", which is actually a coda (epilogue) to the previous song on the album, "The Egret":
These videos both have Closed Captions, BTW.
Billy D reviews another Star Wars book, Queen's Shadow. This is one of a few stories of Padmé Amidala and her handmaidens. This one takes place just a little before Episode II.
UP is out. You can find it on most major music streaming sites. Please listen a lot and share with your friends.

My plan was to hand them out to all who re-ordered at my CD Release Concert. Thanks to the delta variant, I'm not sure exactly when that show will be, so I'll send everyone their CDs in the mail. When that show finally happens, those early supporters would get in free, should there be a cover at the door.
Here are some useful links to the new album:
Here's a song. Warning: It's one of the two songs on the album with a lot of F-word:
Billy D swats mosquitos as he enthusiastically reviews Andy Weir's sci-fi book, Project Hail Mary. Andy Weir is best known for his book that was made into a major motion picture, The Martian.
