Rock On! This Week's Sound Bites... 03/19/2026

by Danny Coleman - published 2026-03-19
"I do, "Floating on the Dreamline;" I'm a music professor at The University of Massachusetts in Lowell, I'm a musicologist by training, that's what my doctorate is in but I've been a singer songwriter in several different formats since I was a teenager," began Alan Williams as he talked about his latest release, a crisis in confidence and more. "So, all of these songs had been closest to my heart in terms of music making; I grew up in North Carolina in Asheville.

Fifteen years later the contamination — and humiliation — remains. If a Japanese person should decline to hear a lecture about the miracle of the split atom, it's not hard to understand why.
