Napster - With Ribs, For Her Pleasure

  • "Love Crushing" - Fetchin' Bones: A bit of suggestive college rock for the kids.

  • "Roll To Me" - Del Amitri : Yes, cheesy, but Del Amitri is one of those bands that by sheer circumstance plays a major role in the soundtrack of my life. The previous album, Change Everything, was an unfortunately prophetic bit of music-making with regard to a certain relationship of mine.

  • "Mary" - All : The remains of the Descendents went on to form a fun punk/pop combination that ranged from noisy abandon to melodic hooks. This song's lyrics are a personal long-term fave of mine.

  • "Come Back Down" - Toad the Wet Sprocket : Does anyone remember Toad before the sucky sell-out? I do. Off the very understated album Pale.

  • "Melanie" - Dreams So Real : Folk-influenced rock from the Athens scene when it was hot. Saw them open for Guadalcanal Diary and bought Rough Night in Jericho soon after.

  • "Nineteen" - Paul Hardcastle : I'd rather just chalk this one up to my being drunk when I burned the CD. Yes, that must be it.

  • "Postcards from Paradise" - Flesh for Lulu : Long Live the Flesh! Well, they lived until the early 90s anyway. The song "I Go Crazy" made a minor impact thanks to the Some Kind of Wonderful soundtrack.

  • "That Ain't Bad" - Ratcat : Straight-ahead guitar-fueled pop rock from down under. Not a lot of lyrical depth, but a good band to crank up.

  • "Sultans of Swing" - Dire Straits : self-explanatory.

  • "Haven't Got a Clue" - Dramarama : Nothing much to add here - I just loved Dramarama all throughout college.
    All in all, not my best work, but not a bad listen by any means.

    Be proud - don't justify or defend your choices - they're yours!

    Although, Allstar? Really?

    Just kidding - as many times as I've seen Shrek, that song has definitely wormed its way into my musical pleasure center.

    Special props for the Paul Hardcastle cut and the Toad track. Nice mix!

    TPOH! Nice to see a fellow TPOH fan - I went to one of their last concerts in Windsor - small club, it was great, I was probably 4 feet from Moe... of course, at the time, I was too damn chicken to go up and say "Hi" - Oh well. I would have loved to have gone to the reunion shows last summer, but didn't have the fundage! Maybe they'll reform soon... :)

    Good to see Ratcat here! "That Aint Bad" is one of my favourite guitar-pop songs of the early 90s...
