Crotchety Man Posts Published in 2019 Crotchety Man Posts Published in 2019 The following tables summarise the Crotchety Man blog posts published in 2019. There is one table for each category: Band/Artist, Playlist, Album of the Month and Track of the Week. There were also two uncategorised posts. Within each table entries are in chronological order. There were 48 posts altogether, less than one a week, so I’m slipping behind the schedule. However, the number of visitors (2459) was more than twice the number in 2018 (1037), which is encouraging.

    Crotchety Man Posts Published in 2020 The following tables summarise the Crotchety Man blog posts published in 2020. There is one table for each category: Band/Artist, Album-of-the-Month, Track-of-the-Week and Playlist. Within each table entries are in chronological order. The stats say there were 56 posts this year, which is roughly on target at just over one a week and slightly up on last year’s 48. The number of visitors (3550) and the number of views (7045) both hit all-time highs. Of course, this year may have been exceptional but this blog looks pretty healthy to me.
