The Triumphant Return Of The Power POP Commander!

It’s been several years since we last heard from the Power POP Commander

2016 to be exact, and I was getting worried about him, so I sent up the Power POP Commander bat signal (minor chord descending).

He’s aged a few years since we last heard from him. But I’m happy to report that he is doing fine, and continuing the Lord’s  work of bringing joy and happiness to all the good little boys and girls with pure hearts with power chord crunches, soaring three part harmonies, and a smattering of minor chords played on jangly guitars!

He was also kind enough to drop off a playlist worthy of of his great work which I will present this afternoon!
