That's why I like the "what are you listening to now" thread. Post some of your good findings in there!!

Yeah, I have a hard time keeping up with the SBAF music threads. I try to catch up every few weeks and am grossly negligent on posting my own stuff.

In the days before internet I used to love poring over the physical copy of the All Music Guide. Lots of great discoveries from there.

Back in the day I think a coworker used to get All Music Guide and I'd look through it when I had a chance. I also used to love Rolling Stone and SPIN which would review some fringe stuff. I had a "free" RS subscription last year and it wasn't even worth that. By the third issue they went right into the trash.

Yeah Spin especially would review some good stuff. Had a subscription back in the day.

Not the same, but this made me think of ~16 years ago when I didn't have the internet and the only way I found out about new music was to look at the liner notes of albums I loved and see the bands that were thanked, and then track down their releases. Wouldn't go back to that, but there's something magical about discovery when it's not just a matter of a few keystrokes.
