David Musto: October 10, 2010

  1. Neil YoungLive At Massey Hall 1971 (Reprise)

    Very intimate setting with just Neil on guitar, piano, and vocal. The song “Helpless,” comes across as the narrator is just that. Neil should redo all of his CSNY stuff this way.

  2. NHL Season Opens

    But maybe more importantly, baseball season ends. That leads me to…

  3. Ministry & Co-ConspiratorsKeys To The City (13th Planet)

    While waiting for Ministry to come on for their last show, they played this song and it instantly became Chicago’s greatest sports team fight song, if not any team anywhere. Certainly better than “Chelsea Dagger,”.

  4. CrocodilesSummer Of Hate (Fat Possum)

    After seeing so many fellow contributors cite Crocodiles, I was shocked and dismayed that there was a shoegaze band I was unaware of. Not anymore. Favorite song: “I Wanna Kill,”

  5. CrocodilesSleep Forever (Fat Possum)

    Fave song: “Mirrors,”

  6. Alice In ChainsS/T (Columbia)

    Of all the nineties Seattle bands, I feel like AIC is the least appreciated.

  7. Repo Man: Music From The Original Motion Picture Soundtrack (MCA)

    Great songs cherry picked by Black Flag, Suicidal Tendencies, Circle Jerks, and Fear as well as an exclusive Iggy tune. Vintage 1984 L.A.

  8. Primus Frizzle Fry (Caroline/Prawn Song)

    Colonel Claypool and company’s first and best studio offering.

  9. Mark Lanegan BandHere Comes That Weird Chill (Beggars Banquet)

    Meant to be an experimental leftovers EP from Lanegan’s Bubblegum album, there are still some great tracks like “Lexington Slow Down,”.

  10. Score! 20 Years Of Merge Records: The Covers! (Merge)

    Great collection of covers from the indie A-list. Quasi’s take on “Beautiful Things,” by 3Ds is the biggest revelation.
