Five songs, shuffled, described.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Pretenders<\/a> - Sabre Dance (live). This is the song that everyone knows from cartoons. No, not Powerhouse<\/a>, the other one<\/a>. It's just frantic drums and screaming guitar with Chrissy Hynde singing bits of the words to \"Stop You Sobbing\" here and there. It's from the extended re-issue of their first record. Link is to a live \"Needle And The Damage Done\".\n
  2. Fleetwood Mac - Did You Ever Love Me<\/a>. A perfect example of an upbeat Christine McVie soft-rock love song: she singing a bright sweet melody over a gently rocking base. The steel drums are a bit distracting, but otherwise, it's a decent tune. I like the guitar line.\n
  3. Sonic Youth - Catholic Block<\/a>. This song kills. Love this sprawling, twisting monster.\n
  4. The Sea And Cake - You Beautiful Bastard<\/a>. A long, slow mellow thing. It's in no hurry, as it glides farther and farther into the Golden Land of Mellow<\/i>. I like it, but I can understand why some might not.\n
  5. Led Zeppelin - Dancing Days<\/a>. Love this, too. Page's elastic guitar is just so cool - that intro riff, especially. And then Jones' slippery organ gets on that lick about halfway through - very slinky.\n<\/ol>\n
