Feature: Verse Chorus Verse

The great Buddy Guy called his 1968 debut for Vanguard Records A Man And The Blues. Welcome to 'Verse Chorus Verse,' the story of a man and his iPod. Think of this column like Dana Carvey's Clean Slate or Christopher Nolan's Memento. Every day is a blank canvas waiting to be splashed in colorful sound. 'Verse Chorus Verse' – taken from the Nirvana song of the same title -- is Blogcritics Senior Music Editor Josh Hathaway's daily sojourn into the mysteries of his iPod. What song do you want to take with you if you're ever stranded on a deserted island? What's the one song you could be happy listening to for all time? What will your final memory be if the last song you hear is…? Do you go to Hell if your last song is by Yanni? Join Josh as he discusses, discovers, and rediscovers new and old favorites.
