GARY WRIGHT will always be known as the "Dreamweaver," but add "Love is Alive" (with More Cowbell) and you have Twofer Tuesday.

GARY LOURIS (The Jayhawks) virtually visits The Current.

R.E.M.: Viceroy Park, Charlotte, NC, November 7, 1981

DAVE CHAPPELLE joined the FOO FIGHTERS to cover Radiohead's "Creep."

BLUE: Joni Mitchell's Masterpiece At 50. Hear five demos and outtakes. And twenty-five musicians speak about the LP’s enduring power.

KINGS OF CONVENIENCE talk to Paste about their return.

THE BEST ALBUMS of 1981, according to Paste.

THE NUMBER ONES looks at Phil Collins' graceless late-'80s Motown pastiche "Two Hearts."

STEAM: The one-hit wonder with a synced take on "Na Na Hey Hey Kiss Him Goodbye."

THE NUMBER ONES looks at Bobby Brown's elemental new jack swing classic "My Prerogative."

WEEKEND BOX OFFICE: Hitman’s Wife’s Bodyguard tops the chart with 11.67MM over the regular weekend (and 17MM since opening), which is a little better than expected but not heralding the return of normal box office, either. A Quiet Place 2 placeds with 9.4MM on a 22 percent drop and a 125.2MM domestic total. Peter Rabbit 2 shows with 6.1MM and a fairly anemic 20.3MM domestic total.  However, Godzilla vs. Kong crossed 100MM domestic, the second flick to do so post-pandemic, while F9 approaches 300MM worldwide even before opening domestically.

MEGXIT: Prince Charles made it clear Archie will have no place among frontline Royals.  Also, William confronted Harry about allegations of bullying made against Meghan Markle by palace staff.

THE WEEKEND STARTS HERE:

... with POWER POP (REDUX)!
