(At Least For Today, Anyway)
We’re not just about the classic tracks here in F45 Land. We like them crazy young’uns and their rock and roll, too.
Michael Franti And Spearhead with Cherine Anderson - Say Hey (I Love You)
I’ve loved his message since I first heard Stay Human while walking through Virgin Records at Union Square. Are we praying with him for change in this country come November 4th? Hell, yes.
Molly Hatchet - Flirtin’ With Disaster
I believe everybody deserves to have his voice heard (though I’m very certain which voice I want to be running the country). Can rebels and rednecks unite? Here they can.
Mudcrutch - Queen of the Go-Go Girls
I’d heard of this quick and dirty, live in the studio thing from Tom Petty but it my friend Tim B. of the Big D that shamed me into going and getting it. A fun record for all that participate.
Chatham County Line - Chip Of A Star
This is #1 in the carpool hit parade. Whoever produced this song knew what he was doing. Listen close: pure brilliance.
I See Hawks In L.A. - Good And Foolish Times
There’s so much to hear in this band…I’m just scratching the surface. Number 2 in the carpool hit parade, a particular fave of my 8-year old.
Yeah, they sound like early 70’s McCartney in a lot of places. But, they maintain their character. I’m enjoying this record.
Dirty Pretty Things - Hippy’s Son
Speaking of Beatle-esque: could I drop “four thousand holes in Blackburn, Lancashire” into the chorus? Don’t think these guys are long for popularity but, in rock and roll, popularity is a temporal thing anyway (like in high school). Closes the loop nicely on this post, though, a song about being a hippy’s son.
