"Alex Chilton" by the Replacements, popped up on some random playlist this morning. I think it is originally from the "Pleased to Meet Me" album.

You are correct sir.

Pleased to Meet Me is being re-released in some kind of expanded form later this year. In the meantime check out the original mix of Don't Tell a Soul, now called Dead Man's Pop. It is the album that shoulda been.

I've really enjoyed this the last several months. And the shithammered recordings with Tom Waits were fun.

Was listening to the Commitments recently and decided to put together a playlist showcasing the 2 best versions of each song on that album.
Great tunes.

On the lookout for it, as well as ColonelJLloyd's recommendation with Tom Waits-heck, is Westerberg the only one still alive? Brought up the SNL drunken escapades on the 'tube last week too-"banned for life" huh?

on a totally separate note, is the new Weezer album any good, is it out yet? They've been teasing a song here or there for the last few months.

I'm just going to admit it: The new Taylor Swift album. I've always admired her laser-focus and songcraft, and just generally find her interesting.

But right now? The first Mott the Hoople album, including their cover of the Sonny & Cher song, "Laugh At Me".

artist: Joaquin Sun
album: Shore Thing

Chris Mars ain't dead and Golden Smog was cool.

Stinson put out another Bash & Pop album a few years back. Not exactly a departure from the format. ;)

awesome!! Departure? what departure.......this could very easily be from 1986! (ok, maybe a tad tighter?) thanks for sharing!

The From The Basement crew just uploaded the full set! Like a scoop of mint chip on a waffle cone for your ears.



They've also uploaded full sets for In Rainbows and The King Of Limbs. The King Of Limbs session is better than the album.

This.
I did not know Billy was a staple on Shindig.
Now I do.
I understand why the Beatles got him.
An amazing person.
