RLR – Sharon Whiteside Reviews “Girl on Guy” Podcasts

/ Leave a Comment / Really Late Review, Reviews

Loads of positive feedback followed my first Really Late Review last Friday.  It seems I’ve found common ground with plenty of people who don’t leap on the next new thing the minute it comes out.

The Elder Statesman of American Rock

/ 2 Comments / Celebrities, Reviews

Not quite two-thirds of the way through Bruce Springsteen’s autobiography, Born to Run, I feel confident that I can give it five out of five stars, no matter what else is to come. I can already guess how it ends. Springsteen is still one of the top money-making stars in the business of rock and roll and at 67, he’s in better shape than most men 20 years younger. The book is simply excellent. It entered North American sales charts at number one.  …
