OK, OK. No more May. June shuffling begins... today!<\/p>\n

Five songs, random, list and describe!<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Nora - Dummy. This is a song from one of my college-era bands. It's a snappy little upbeat number and the performance here is pretty good (if you'll allow me this prideful moment)! This was always a blast to play.
    \n

  2. Led Zeppelin - Thank You<\/a>. It's my 2nd-least favorite song from my favorite Zep album (Moby Dick wins last place because of the drum solo). Still, it's a better song than most bands will ever do, so I haven't totally wasted these five minutes!\n
  3. Neil Young & C.H. - Hey Hey, My My<\/a> (live, from Weld). His guitar sound is just killer. It's so raw and brutal; it wants to tear your face off and kick you for being so ugly. And the beat is just StompStompStompStompStompStomp. It's like sitting on top of an overdriven sheet metal stamping machine. One of his best - especially the live versions, ex. on Weld and Live Rust.\n
  4. Cat Power - Salty Dog<\/a>. This is from her \"Covers Record\" (an album of covers). It's just her and an acoustic guitar. Pretty mellow, in and out in two minutes. Not bad.\n
  5. Calexico - Nom de Plume<\/a>. In a change from their usual unique blend of American and Mexican musical styles, this one is in whispered French. I don't know the name of the style, but it's that dark, minor-key French thing; there's typically an accordion (though not here). Calexico is an interesting band. I should buy more of their records.\n<\/ol>\n
