Mix # 90

Alright! Another mix to get you feelin' awesome! This one has some LA hardcore and some international stuff as well as some well known gold.
Enjoy!





1. Tattoo by Van Halen
No Joke the song has grown on me and it's not a stinker at all! "Sexy Dragon magic!"
2. Suburban Home by Descendents
LA hardcore was a weird scene
3. Back of Your Neck by Howler
 Here's a little ditty by  a band I don't know anything about.
4. Bad Girls by M.I.A.
So she gave the finger during the super bowl, so what? Football is a game of men spanking each other's asses and being very violent, I don't think a hand gesture should be the most objectionable thing on the field. She's a hip-hop/rosk star she must do these things.
5. Talaha l'Badro Alaina by The Master Musicians of Jajouka
Music from Morocco, music to go into a trance to. 
6. Song for the Fields by Fields
Modern Pop rock
7. What We Do Is Secret by The Germs
Darby Crash, the singer of the Germs was a homosexual and Scientologist.
8. Born To Die by Lana Del Rey
Said to be the worst artist to perform on Saturday Night Live, said to be a poser I have to disagree, she's just out to get big.
9. Home by Edward Sharpe & the magnetic Zeros
This song sounds like it's from the 1970s but is just a couple years old; it's cool. 
10.Making Time by The Creation
This song was in a dozen adds and is pretty good. 
11.Take It On The Run by REO Speedwagon
Classic rock form the suburbs! I never liked this song until recently.
12.Where Is My Mind by Sunday Girl
A Pixies cover? Well that's great! they do a good job.
13.Sink The Pink by AC/DC
Mid 80s AC/DC usually gets a bad rap but I dig this song because it rocks!
14.Rise Above by Black Flag
More punk, henry Rollins' band kicked ass!
15.Wargasm by L7
LA Grunge by women
16.Broken Bottles by Silversun Pickups
Not their best but it's their newest
17.I Just Want Some Skank by The Circle Jerks
Yeah, he does!
18.You're the On That I Want by Angus & Julia Stone
Yes, this is a cover of that song from, Grease
19.Bleed Together by Soundgarden
These grunge masters put out a song that is positively classic rock before they put out Badmotorfinger
20.Hot Girls In Love by Loverboy
If you don't love Canadian 80s rock than you can go find a new life
21.Adieu by Coeur de pirate
French pop usually sucks but these guys did it right!
22.Comeback Kid by Sleigh Bells
Currently they are the critics darlings but it will pass
23. Home Sweet Home by Mötley Crüe
Great lyrics, great song! Great video! Crazy 80s!

Weekly Mix #80

I don't know how I feel about this mix. There's a lot of stuff on here that may be forgotten in the near future. I'm partial to great music butu when nobody cares about it . . .
Anyway go listen to these songs and enjoy the exploration of new music!




1. Ezekiel 25-17 film dialogue from Pulp Fiction
Sam Jackson at his best. When I used to make mixes on cassette it was a lot easier to copy film dialogue but I'm not invested enough anymore to do that sort of thing digitally.
2. Highway To Hell by AC/DC
It's definitely one of AC/DC's best songs and the premise is classic rock stuff. They Say when Bon Scott died he was getting his in order but when you choke on your own vomit in your car in front of your house it seems a bit unlikely.

RIP Bon Scott

3. Crackerman by Stone Temple Pilots
Here's a song I never really listened to until 2010; I just ignored it. From STP's debut, Core it kicks a little ass.
4. Standing Still by Eat Sugar
This is a great little rock/pop song by a band that I don't think I'll ever hear of again, I loves those drums!
5. Second Chance by Peter, Bjorn and John
I'm so glad this band came out with more than one good new song.
6. Stop Me If You Think You've Heard This One Before by The Smiths
 One of the greatest 80s bands to never make it big in the states. Too good I guess.
7. Blood by The Dears
One of the best modern Canadian bands to never get anywhere in the states
8. Post Break-Up Sex by The Vaccines
Great band name and almost a great song but to sort of tries too hard to sound like something besides a good pop song.
9. I Got You (I Feel Good) by James Brown
The hardest working man in show business, the godfather of soul! Refusing this song is like refusing incredible awesome stuff.

RIP Mr. Brown

10.Come On Get It by Lenny Kravitz
Promises and teases, that's what Lenny's career in music has turned into. This isn't so bad as it almost delivers awesome.
11.Born To Lose by Motörhead
Born to lose, live to win. That's Lemmy's tattoo.
12.Sheena Is a Punk Rocker by Yeah Yeah Yeahs
Evergetic and more poppy than the original Ramones version but still good.
13.Man of Misery by Beady Eye
Liam Gallagher's new band? Goodbye Oasis until 2020 when they reunite.
14.Garbage Truck by Sex Bob-Omb
This one sounds like the previous song, don't it? I don't know which I like better
15.Intro (Dream Sequence) by Alice In Chains
It's loud, short and scary, not really a song.
16.Family Man by Hall and Oates
Hookers were very prevalent on their H2O album ie. Man Eater
17.Before the Rain bu Duran Duran
Don't Hold back the Rain, that was an old song and this is a new song, just as good too.
18.My Kinda Lover by Billy Squier
Before he decided to do weird Flashdance moves in his videos, Mr. Squier had some really good rock/pop songs like this one.


19.Buick MacKane (Big Dumb Sex) by Guns N' Roses
Some people hate The Spaghetti Incident but not me. This is a mix of a Soundgarden song and a Nazareth song and it works.
20.Lost In Hollywood by System of a Down
"All maggots smoking fags on Santa Monica Boulevard" this is a chilly distopian view of Hollywood show business. Angry, angry song.
21.You Showed Me by The Watson Twins
Haunting vocals and stark, lovely.
22.Blood by My Chemical Romance
I have a friend who heard this song and thought this was what the band sounded like, he was not pleased when he heard more of their music. This is indeed a funny little show tune but it's a joke and more of a fun sing along for their concerts than anything else.
23.Get Some by Lykke Li
I heard this song played on the radio once, once. That's too bad, it's a good song.
24.Woo Hoo by The 5.6.7.8's
Japanese retro music made famous in Kill Bill and Vonage adds
25.Loser by Beck
It took this long to get on a mix and I don't know why.

Weekly mix #66

This is a 2009 mix with several songs that I never listen to but wanted to represent represent on a modern mix. Sometimes I think that I have to put more emphases on modern, current tunes than better ones in  fear that I may become an old fart. Maybe I just need to dig more deeply into the unknown . . .

1. C'mon Let's Go by Girlschool
I guess women are allowed to be tuff too.
2. Dirty little Rockstar by The Cult
Still making jams after all this time, adjusting to the times well enough.
3. That's My Tune by Morningwood
Some songs drone and drone well, this is one of them
4. My Own Worst Enemy by Lit
This song just gets funnier as the years pass
 5. Porno Star by Buckcherry
Josh and the boys are not subtle by any means. They are a band who needs a scene.
6. My Way by Miss Crazy
A band that wanted the 80s back in all their glam metalness. Sorry guys, you missed the boat.
7. Primary Colours by The Horrors
It's a sweeping  song from band that used to be anything but. It reminds me of 80s music I never heard.
8. Petition The Lord With Prayor by The Doors
You Cannot petition the lord with prayer!
9. United States of Eurasia/Collateral Damage by Muse
Showing their love for Queen and Radiohead full on!
10.Beach Town by Le Loup
It's kind of etherial and kind of hypnotic but mostly it's not much of anything you'd have an urge to hear
11.Fine For Now by Grizzly Bear
Only slightly more friendly than the last song, this tune has some nice harmonies but mainly makes you turn into a drip.
12.Every Rose Has It's Thorn by Poison
There's something about a huge hit ballad that can make unknown indie rock seem totally lame
13.Art isn't Real (City Of Sin) by Deer Tick
Sometimes one discovers a little indie song that is remarkably good and you wonder why nobody else knows about it. I found this song on a Penguin music sampler.
14.Everymorning by Sugar Ray
I liked them better when they just wanted to fly.
15.T.N.T by AC/DC
Yup, snap out of it we're blowing shit up with the greatest thing ever to come out of Australia.
16.Cryin' by Aerosmith
I'm getting soft because after years of denying any like for this song I finally caved.
17.Standing Next To Me by The Last Shadow Puppets
More sixties inspired rock. I feel like I should be riding in a black cab through London , heartbroken, wondering where it all went wrong.
18.Coffin Faftory by The Mumblers
Some boys from Silicon Valley got out there organ and made some music, there should have been a movement around this but that's just me being' wishful.
19.Time Has Come Today by The Chambers Brothers
Are these guys one hit wonders? I think so. It's a good 60s song about change and all that 60s garbage.
20.Use Somebody by Kings of Lyon
This should be the end of the mix but I decided I didn't want to be a total wuss
21. You Could Be Mine by Damone
Worship the power of GN'R even if it through a cover song by a very underrated band.

Weekly Mix # 63

So I looked at this mix and thought about the songs and realized that almost all of them have been used in adds or movies, crazy! Enjoy this 2009 created bad boy!

1. Everybody Wants To Rule the World by Tears for Fears
Some songs from the 80s really deliver on their era, this is one of them but I can't exactly explain why. I suppose Songs from The Big Chair was the high point for these Brits though Sewing the Seeds of Love was also pretty big too..
2. Feellin' Alright by Joe Cocker
I was obsessed with this song for a bout month when I made this mix which is why it sauntered in here.
3. Zero by Yeah Yeah Yeahs
It's a groovy song by some hipters from New York. The video was filmed in San Francisco's China Town
4. Troublemaker by Weezer
And suddenly Weezer just kept on truckin'. It seemed like they were faded into the past and then they made a comeback and never left us.
5. Any Way you Want It by Journy
Classic rock of Journey and memories of Caddy Shack
6. Same Ol' Situation by Mötley Crüe
Great band and strange band, The bassist writes all the songs but doesn't sing and the most famous member in the group is the drummer. The Dr. Feelgood album was the pinnacle for these L.A. hair gods even though they still tour.
7. Down With the Sickness by Disturbed
It took a couple years for me to be into this Nü Metal classic but now I enjoy it. This appeared in, Queen of the Damned when Lestat's band was about to go on stage . . . or was this the song his band did?
8. Ulysses by Franz Ferdinand
 These guys just put out groove after groove with great melodies, The tuxedo the singer wears in the video is slick and if I had thousadns at the time I would have owned it and rocked it better!
9. Panic Switch by Silversun Pickups
This crazy song was used in Sucker Punch. There's something desperate in the sonic craziness of the music that I really like.
10.Desolation Row by My Chemical Romance
A song on the Watchmen soundtrack, I think it's one of their five best songs. "Cinderella, she seems so easy" Coooool f'ing lyric. They even play the national anthem in this song; it has to be good!
11.Lit Up by Buckcherry
A song about getting high but could be used by G.E. to premote their lightbulbs
12.I  Can't Drive 55 by Sammy Hagar
Before he teamed up with Van Halen, Sammy was the red rocker and complaining about traffic and speed limits, now he sings national anthems at Giant's games.
13.John Walker's Blues by Steve Earle
Maybe the best song having anything to do with the Taliban; it's moving.
14.Paper Planes by M.I.A.
If you didn't hear this song in 2008 you probably are reading this blog for research on popular music. It was huge, it won M.I.A. awards and possibly made her a one hit wonder. I always thought this song was about drug dealing but I've never been able to confirm this.
15.Falling Down by Oasis
I still don't know why songs like this one didn't lead to a huge Oasis come back. Dig Out Your Soul had good stuff all over it.
16.Fall Is Just Something Grownups Invented by The Hives
Yup, this is the Nickelodeon  Channel theme rocked out by the Swedes
17.Mr. Hurricane by Beast
The name of this band isn't right, there isn't anything beastly about them though this is cool song for sure!
18.Daylight by Matt & Kim
More music from Hipsters; it's very catchy. You may be familiar with the tune as it appeared in a Tanqueray Gin TV add.
19.Please Please Please Let Me Get What I Want by The Smiths
Morrissey can emote like no other. An instrumental version of this tune was used in Ferris Bueller's Day Off during the Museum scene.
20.Can't seem To make You Mine by The Seeds
This tune was used in an Axe spray cologne add featuring the queen of eyebrows Adrianne Curry
21.Let There be Rock by AC/DC
Even AC/DC sold out! This rocker was the theme to a Rock Band video game release.

Retro Concert? More, More, More!

As you know old washed up pop stars form decades past can now tour the reunion/nostalgia circuit and do well. I have been a contributor to this biz for the past few years starting when me and some friends took on what was a true wonder, Van Halen. Our hopes for the show ranged from wondering what the hell we were doing going to see a bunch of fifty year olds play songs that at best were 25 years old to being totally amped for some real rock! What we got were all the hits, played with great professionalism and a great time; Hot For Teacher, Runnin' With The Devil, Unchained . . . all were just so damn good to hear live! This experience led to rocking shows like Mötley Crüe, AC/DC, Iron Maiden that did not disappoint; you get to hear all the famous songs and a couple new ones that aren't so bad. There's no sitting around to here one or two songs; they are all good. Recently I went to another one of these shows and bore witness to Billy Idol.


Homeboy delivered a show that back in 1990 would have been a total fantasy. He's still an ass but knows it's his bread and butter. mercifully he didn't play his biggest hit, Cradle of Love which surely caused some folks to be disappointed but I've always hated that song as it's sort of too much of the pop rock. Instead we got his cover of L.A. Woman from the Charmed Life album.
Rock n' roll is a fantasy and these bands are putting on fantasy shows that take us back to a time that is heightened by our own interpretation of the past, our own emotions connected with the music of our youth (unless you're one of those kids being dragged to the show by their parent). Part of me thinks this is sad because Rock is supposed to be young, dirty and dangerous and what we get is the too old to go crazy version. This however is better than what the kids are putting out there today, I mean Neon Trees are supposed to be a rock band but they don't rock and they just sound like a poppier rendition of The Strokes. They are the Cradle of Love to White Wedding. So while the young folks struggle to get it up let the old guys bring it harder!

Hold it! Come to think of reunion shows, my first was back in 1989 when I saw The Who's 25th anniversary show; it was alright, better for the experience than being a fan. There were so many drunk dudes who are my age now there; the circle is complete.

Weekly Mix Tape Pt 46

You will experince the rocking highs of Mt. AC/DC and Peaks of Damone and you will be then dropped into the Abyss Hall & Oates, you will swim through the Sea of Nightrain and a Blue Bayou. Wandering the dark valleys where Siouxsie & The Banshees sing you run from the Wolfmother! Alas it's all a fantasy under strict control of he Dream Police!
Enjoy because I am a dork!

1. That's The Way I wanna Rock & Roll by AC/DC
This almost a lost track in the lexicon of AC/DC, maybe it was because it was contending with more energetic songs of the late 80s
2. Dream Police by Cheap Trick
Epic, synth rocker!  I saw them in 1988 and they did a great show!
3. What Girls Want by Material Issue
It's a funny song and sort of right on
4. Aweful by Hole
I'm not sure which rock star wrote this song for Courtney Love but it is the bands best song. It's a sick overview of being a young girl in Hollywood
5. Out Here All Night by Damone
Boston Rocks! I was delighted and intregued when I first heard this song; it has ballz! Welcome Damone!
6. I Turn My Camera On by Spoon
This song is flacid and a way to shill after too much guitars
7.The Continuing Story of Bungalow Bill by The Beatles
Why this song? It's kind of like a kids song; it has a sing along  and sounds cute.
8. Maneater by Hall & Oates
Smooth sax, keyboards, distinct bass . . . this is almost background music for porn but wound up being a top ten hit.
9. No Shelter by Rage Against The Machine
Starts off smooth but gets very agro quickly. This was the best thing about the 1998 Godzilla movie.
10.Live Wire by Mötley Crüe
This is the beginning of a band that got huge, besides the various Tommy Lee, drum stupidy at the end of the song it was one of the groups best tracks.
11.Knock On Wood by Morningwood
Covering disco is a very clever thing indeed
12.Nightrain by Guns N' Roses
Some songs have a life of their own, this song is one of them; it lives in it's own universe of cheap booze
13.Trains to Brazil by Guillemots
Because the Nightrain is a bit too much for some the Train to Brazil is much more nice
14.Disappear by INXS
There is nothing wrong with loving Austrailia's second greates band. They make the people want to dance!




15.Sorry by Buckcherry
Somebody told these guys that singing about partying was nice and all but you have to show the world that there's more to you than that. So Josh and boys wrote a song and apologized for it.
16.Mysteries by Yeah Yeah Yeahs
From the excellent Show Your Bones album.
17.Life Is Sweet by The Start
An L.A. band that is crazy sounding and feels very influenced by the band that follows
18.Love in a Void by Siouxsie & The Banshees
Young and angry and in love, Goth punk at a high level
19.Blue Bayou by Linda Ronstadt
I know it's a Roy Orbison song but I prefer to think of it as hers
20.Haven't Got a Clue by Dramarama
The call in the beginning of the song is from a prankster who harassed a bartender and recorded it. It's horribly funny.
21.Woman by Wolfmother
If you knew me when this song was hot you were annoyed at how much I listened to this Black Sabbath influenced piece. It rocks but alas they never got this bad ass again.
22.We Will Rock You by Queen
Thank you Queen for existing

Weekly Mix Tape Pt 20

This mix has some progressions and regressions involving Boston connection. This mix gets a little sloppy, probably due to impatience or something. All Songs available on iTunes.
Listen and Enjoy.

2. Rise by The Cult

12.Common People by Pulp
William Shatner covered this song, that's how seminal it is

14.White Wedding by Billy Idol
Billy Doesn't get any better than this song about his sister
15.Tie Your Mother Down
Queen Rocks
16.Trippin' On A Hole With A Paper Heart by Stone Temple Pilots
Scott Weiland was great when he was on drugs (yes that's a reference to their newest song, "Between The Lines"
17.You Shook Me All Night Long AC/DC
The older I get the less I like this song
18.Jungle Boogie by Kool & The Gang
If you don't get down to this song the you can't get down
19.Go by Pearl Jam
You would think this is how I would start the mix but you would be wrong and be penalized

Also this is a cool link about Mix Tapes from The Toilet Paper (click it)

From The Virgin Suicided movie

Thursday, April 29, 2010

Weekly Mix Tape Pt 12

There's more groove and dance to this mix than one might expect from me which is why I keep making mixes! I need to explore my music collection,




1. Hate To Say I Told You So by The Hives
The only band that matters. Well that's quite an exaggeration but welcome to America boys. Who knew Sweden rocked so hard?
2. Beercan by Beck
Groovy shit!
3. Candy-O by The Cars
The Cars never rocked like this!
4. Renegades of Funk by Rage Against the Machine
Even protest is funky.

Trent's drum n' Bass experiment from the "Lost Highway" sound track.
6. Loser by 3 Doors Down
Hick Rock
 7. Hello Operator by The White Stripes
Hello White Stripes.
8. Jailbreak by AC/DC
RIP Bon Scott, you crazy man
9. In The Highways by The Peasall Sisters
Old Timey music from O' Brother Where Art Thou?
10.Ghost of Stephen Foster by Squirrel Nut Zippers
Their best song
11. Criminal by Fiona Apple
Top 5 crazy girl song. Be aware of chicks who sing this at Karaoke
12. Town Called Malice by The Jam
This is a total classic British song
13.Diggin' Your Scene by Smash Mouth
Does Smash Mouth suck? You be the judge
14.Groove is in the Heart by Deee-lite
3 e's is maybe too many but this song has become a classic with some help from Q-tip and Bootsy Collins

Classic Rock always makes for a great mix ending

Listen and enjoy

Thursday, April 15, 2010

Weekly Mix Tape Pt 10

This is the weekly mix and it's a weird one. There are some good songs off bad albums such as "Warped", "Ty Cobb" and Undercover of the Night". The Mix has classic rock from AC/DC, The Who and Cheap Trick and some Manchester punch from Oasis and the Stone Roses. The songs you don't know on here are G.L.O.B. and maybe U2's Mofo but the latter is U2 so it's more well known than it has any right to. I don't know what the mix is about but The Rolling Stones to the Stone Roses to Oasis row meant something I think.
enjoy!


1. Warped by Red Hot Chili Peppers
The rest of One Hot Minute was garbage but this some good shit.
2. Ty Cobb by Soundgarden
This is a strange song. It is great to listen to at the gym however or when you're beating up somebody.
3. Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap by AC/DC
I love me early some AC/DC. Bon Scott AC is just a little more filth covered, a little more illicit sounding. HIGH VOLTAGE!
4. Undercover of the Night by The Rolling Stones
Possible a horrible 80s Rolling Stones song but I really enjoy it. To me it's the lost good one.
5. Begging You by The Stone Roses
From the much maligned, Second Coming this was one of the stand outs of the album.
6. Supersonic by Oasis
I didn't get into their first album until I really got into their second. Supersonic is plodding but it's so good.
7. New by No Doubt
No Doubt were trying to separate themselves from the ska that made them rich and it resulted in some good little pop, rock songs. I don't recall anybody really being into them until they put out, Rock Steady a couple years later.
8. The Needle And The Damage Done by Neil Young
Stay off heroin kids
9. Magic bus by The Who
but weed and LSD are fine. When I was a kid I thought this was a kids song, i thought it was funny but then I aged and I realized what drugs were.
10.Cursed Female by Porno For Pyros
 I can never decide how I feel about this Perry Ferrel band. Were they good or just sort of okay? I like this one as it's sort of hypnotic and the subject matter is weird. A woman who dress like a man to have sex with men, is that right?
11.Paranoid by Black Sabbath
You will rock and you will bow to sabbath!
12. Peace Dog by The Cult
More rock off the American rock inspired, Electric.
13. Hard To Handle by The Black Crows
Great job covering Otis Redding.
14.I get Around by The Beach Boys
Something was changing with these guys, maybe it was drugs, maybe it was mental instability by Bryan Wilson.
15.Electric Barbarella by Duran Duran
I am a big fan of this mediocre era of Duran Duran. It's very slick and catchy.
16.MOFO by U2
U2 went disco, it was supposed to be clever but clever doesn't sell records. I think they knew they were in a shitty age of music and were trying to do something about it.
17. Super Nova by Liz Phair
I like to pretend she sang this song to me
18.G.L.O.B. by The 360's
One of my favorite Boston bands. The 360's rocked real awesome like but could never make it to the national stage.
19. Call Me by Blondie
A song about a gigolo. This was the theme to, American Gigolo. It's a rocker regardless what it's origin.  
20 I Want You To Want Me by Cheap Trick
At some point in one's classic rock education this song becomes important as you realize the power of the concert. Live at the Budokan!
