Cheap Trick- All Shook Up
The first two songs suggest that great things are in store for the listener, though I don't know why Robin Zander wants to stop the music. Maybe it's because he could stop it before and he's upset that he no longer can. Well, it doesn't matter, because this album sucks other than the first two tracks.
Grant Lee Buffalo- Copperopolis

most obscure trivia ever
I like to watch TV while I use a treadmill in the morning. I've been watching NBC's Journeyman this season. (Not because it's a wonderful show but mainly because of how much I enjoyed HBO's Rome and both shows have an actor in common.) Sometimes I turn on the closed captioning if the sound is muffled so I can hear over the noise of the treadmill. The conclusion to the 11/12/2007 episode used Blind Faith's song "Can't Find My Way Home" for dramatic effect. Well, at least that's what I read on closed caption. What I heard was "Miracles" by Jefferson Airplane.
I hope that this trivia serves someone well someday.

The Smiths- Strangeways, Here We Come
This is my least favorite Smiths cd by far, but it still beats the hell out of the best cd by anyone who has ever won or will win American Idol.

Mark Knopfler- Kill To Get Crimson
Mark never lets me down. I'm always prepared for the worst when he releases a new album because how long can he continue to create music uninterrupted? Who else has this kind of track record? Jimmy Page, like Mark Knopfler, is one of the greatest living guitar players, and he has certainly released some stinkers.

Drive-By Truckers- Variety Playhouse, Atlanta, GA 12/31/2006
The Drive-By Truckers are one of the greatest living bands. I'm biased since many of their songs' backgrounds are inspired by growing up and living in the South. For better or for worse I've lived in Tennessee almost my whole life.
Example: Lookout Mountain is in Chattanooga which is just an hour away from here. It's also one of my favorite songs by DBT.

Mogwai- Ten Rapid
Teenage Fanclub- Dumb Dumb Dumb
Jimmy Page- Outrider
Holy crap, what is this garbage?!?! This cd came out in the 1980's but people still rocked in the 80's. (Think Metallica, Teenage Fanclub, Guns'n'Roses, Hoodoo Gurus, Replacements, etc.)

Robert Plant / Alison Krauss - Raising Sand
Surprisingly underwhelming. Almost bland. I expected dark Appalachian death ballads and I got Norah Jones.

The Smiths- The Queen is Dead
This disc reminds me of high school. I gave Byron M. a ride to school every morning and we listened to this on cassette.
Mogwai- Young Team
What a phenomenal record. Who needs vocals when you can write songs this strong?
