I’ve been playing around with Spotify- Here’s some bands I’ve been digging. If you’re on Spotify- my handle is richzwei.
The Sonics – Savage Young Sonics
Gnarly early recordings from The Protopunk legends
Monster Magnet
Not a band I was real familiar with (except for a Stooges cover they did)- These guys are nasty.
Os Mutantes
Brazilian psychedelic forefathers
Guided By Voices
Boatloads of Pollard’s stuff is here.
Johnny Cash – The Essential Johnny Cash Collection
But then again, they’re all essential
The Lazy Cowgirls
Mid America 80’s Gunk
Welcome To Gearhead Country (2006 compilations)
26 songs of America’s dirtbag heartland. Or something.
The Birthday Party
Another band who I had virtually nothing from. Now, thanks to Spotify, I have everything (well, at least streaming in the cloud).
The Dragons
The beauty of Spotify is finding comps and discovering bands ya never heard of. Exhibit a- The Dragons. Sounds like Lemmy fronting the Replacements.
Wilson Pickett
Just rummaging thru his catalog. Dang!
