Ode to a generation which keeps picking up unidentified phone calls and opening email from our thoroughly impossible elders. Habits are a cage but at least you can have some good tunes piped in there:

Gratuitous pop break! π

Just over here giving hugs across time to women's garage bands from the year I was born. (And which probably had a $5 recording budget.) Don't mind me. π

At least half of Giant Sand's output. I'd also mention Antietam (not to be confused with L'Antietam), but I could be obsessive enough about them to bring them up in response to *every* music link. So...

It's been several years since I posted this. The two chickens in my garage demanded its return. This time with tags.

I heard this at the thrift shop on Saturday for the first time in years. The LP (well, a tape someone made for me) was such a big part of my life my Sophomore year of college. Now I can still recite the chorus and the first two verses. :) Uh, the track has gunfire in it so if this is a bad day for you to hear that, don't press "Play." I still like you. <3
Just randomly thinking about this Eighties ode to year-end malaise. Well, I don't know if that's how they meant it, but it's my take:

(Plus, a Marshall Crenshaw cameo. <3 What more could an arty White Gen-X female doofus want? :D)
Why yes, I WILL fuss for months over a picture, even desperately saving it from the angry jaws of a decaying hard-drive (and downing 20 aspirins as I go) just to have a good excuse to post oldies. [swaggers cross kitchen brandishing coffee mug] Y'got a problem with that?!

Perhaps once I play 100 Chicago covers, I'll open a time-space portal and at last make my rude, unnecessary and uncalled-for dream come true.
Anyway, here's an adorable #cover of "Stronger" which only escapes being a mash-up on a technicality. Instead it's "What if Pink Floyd stood in for them one day while they all nursed near-fatal hangovers?"
Vintage ode to a self-important platform founder who won't or can't mod worth shit:
A Brazilian trio, Negromonte, scores THE game-winning goal with this cover of an underrated CSN song*:

(*Same original album as "Just A Song Before I Go." Always liked this one better, though. #20thcenturyrock )
Random quasi-autumnal song break:

(Sucks that this wasn't in my life until about 5-7 years ago, but there's no going back, Folks. Only forward. π )
Afraid to hit Wiki in case I find out that all these guys ended up as Orange County MAGAs.
