Jeff Balke posts 5 albums that changed his life. I like to read musicians writing about music they like to listen to. The record that changed me the most was Europe 72. I had never before heard the band that would become my favorite, and from the moment I heard that record my entire musical direction changed. Another one is Otis Spann’s Biggest Thing Since Colossus. It made me a huge fan of Otis, the blues in general and piano blues in particular, in one listen.

I was afraid that I wouldn’t get to do a Bebo update today (here’s the first and second), but Mashable once again came to my rescue with this delicious nugget: “Widget marketplace Widgetbox, together with Sugar Publishing, has launched Widgetbox Showcase for Bebo, a collection of interactive gossip widgets. The showcase includes a number of widgets pulling content from various gossip related sites, for example PopSugar, FabSugar and Perez Hilton.” I actually understand what that sentence means, which is a first for my Bebo updates. I have no idea what Bebo is, but I cover it daily- which makes me just like 80% of the other social networking exuberants.

Dave wants us to link to him. Tell you what Dave, give me some swivel feeds recommendations and I’ll link to you every day for a month. Think of it like a virtual autograph.
