Gang Starr - The Place Where We Dwell

Gucci Mane - Gucci On The Rise

The Little Black Egg

a garage rock staple and one of my favorites.  it was originally recorded by The Nightcrawlers in 1965.  but my favorite version is probably the one by The Music Explosion.  they got all the little subtleties just right and brought them out.

The Bug - Run The Place Red (t. Daddy Freddy)

one of my favorites

Merzbow - Phillo-Jazz Electronica

hot hit song off the new merzbow compilation.  it's 19 minutes long but it flies by!

Flop - I Told A Lie

Gloomy Sunday

this song has been done countless times by many different artists over the years.  here are a few renditions, including the original.  with help from this last.fm group: http://www.last.fm/group/Gloomy+Sunday/forum/107619/_/467213

i don't include the Billie Holiday version because everyone has heard it already.  also, adding the apologetic "it was only a dream" verse is a disgrace and makes my skin crawl.  whoever's idea that was, that was awful.

Bubble Puppy - Hot Smoke And Sasafras

the A Gathering of Promises album is the lost gem of 1969

Big Business - Focus Pocus

oh, how i miss 2004.  the Melvins released Pigs of the Roman Empire and Big Business put out their opus album Head For The Shallow.  i know how great the idea of the two bands joining together looked on paper but ultimately, the two bands were better apart. 

don't you remember?  you used to do stuff like this:
