Creedence Clearwater Revival: Fortunate Son for the laborers and the struggle for a fair share.

Kool n the Gang - Emergency ...just because its sexy.

Currently jumping back and forth between a few things.
- Seether's new album, Isolate and Medicate - Favourite songs: Nobody Praying For Me, My Disaster and Suffer It All
- Troldhaugen's second album, Obzkure Anekdotez For Maniakal Massez - Favourite Songs: Hunting Tactics for Mythical Creatures, Lefty's Wild Ride, and The Rabiator Teuthida... can't find clips for them, not entirely surprising given that they're a relatively unknown Australian band. Folk metal, but kind of a unique form. Worth hunting down if you like folk metal.
- Parabelle's first album, A Summit Borderline/A Drop Oceanic (mostly because I love the singer's work on the first two Evans Blue albums, and decided I should check out his other band) - Favourite song: Pray to the Pessimist. Haven't listened to the album enough to have any other favourites yet, but that song's amazing (though really just sounds like a slightly heavier version of Evans Blue).

I am favoriting the hour of the very best of Curtis Mayfield on principle, although, alas, I haven't gotten around to it yet.
Funk for Friday! comes early this week!
Vive le Galt! soul song and then the whole hour and a half of
Soul to Soul: Live in Africa 1970 which, as far as I can tell--I'm only up to about the fifteen minute mark--means Ghana.

I don't think a whole lot survived/is available, but you might enjoy Rifle Sport. They played a lot of shows with Husker Du. The drummer is now in Shellac and has his own 'band' called Brick Layer Cake which is his solo act.
One of the guys in Rifle Sport (I couldn't tell you which one), both of his parents were professional wrestlers. Here's an interview with him if you're into reading old punks talk about stuff.
Funk for Friday!

I don't follow metal much, but I am happy to see that I, thanks to Rone Barton and Paizo.com, I was in on the Babymetal from Day One.

I don't get it.
Not the band, I understand that this is another fusion of metal with another genre, I just don't understand the way people are making a big deal about it. Like that articles 'deal with it' stuff... just another band, isn't it?
The incredible mix tapes and OSTs from Guardians of the Galaxy. I could listen to those forever.

Cara Dillon - Here's A Health
Actually I've pretty much just got her discography running today. Perfect music for a day where I'm struggling to not scream and need something to keep me calm.
Nice!
(It always plays as the last song of the day of the Ren Fests we attend.)

I was playing Assassin's Creed: Black Flag last night, and noticed for the first time that it's one of the songs that plays in the taverns. Proceeded to spend stupid amounts of time derping around the tavern listening to it and other folk songs.
Derivative? Maybe. Don't care.
Record store clerk rock!! I like.

^^ Lol. They all work at Amoeba Records. Love the 'Wats in yr Bag?' interviews from that store. Speaking of stores...
Someone filmed a random night in the Sunset Strip Tower Records in 1971. Sacramento Public Library digitized it. Kinda cool. No speaking parts, just the music playing playing along. I looked for my folks, but they weren't on film. Man, that's a LOT of copies of 'All Things Must Pass'.
