Rotation for the week of 04-16-07

Bruce Springsteen - Born in the USA
When I was a kid, '84 I think, I remember begging my mom for a red hat so I could put it in my back pocket like the cover of this album. I guess I thought that was cool. Never did get the hat...oh well. Anyway, you can't go wrong with The Boss--I think everyone should own this album.

The Supertones
- The Supertones Are Go!
For the last 12-15 years i've always had at least one surf album on rotation, the majority of that being Laika & the Cosmonauts or Dick Dale. But, thanks to some friendly conversations over at SurfGuitar101.com i've found some more tunes to enjoy. The Supertones are pretty awesome and I can't stop listening to this CD.

The Toadies
- Rubberneck
This is one of those CD's I think i'll listen to forever. Funny thing, i've seen the Toadies five times, but only once intentionally. The other four times they were added to the bill after I had already bout tickets to whatever show it was. The Butthole Surfers/Rev. Horton Heat/Toadies show was one of the best, even though I left halfway through BHS. These guys fuckin' rock live.

Witch - Witch
Stoner rock, dude. Dude, J Mascis form Dino Jr plays drums in this band and...dude...it's fuckin' rad dude. Fuckin-A man. You gotta check it out dude, it'll like, blow your mind dude. Huh huh, I said blow...huh huh. Dude.

I finally quit listening to BlocParty. Good stuff but I need some variety. I also bought an Elton John CD -- damn, that guy writes some great songs.
