USCHO Music Thread 3: They Heard Me Singing

Re: USCHO Music Thread 3: They Heard Me Singing

My Record Store Day haul, all on vinyl.

Picked up Vol. 3 of the Complete Big Star's Third. This volume was the finished versions of the album's songs, and came in a cardboard slipcase that you could also keep Vols 1 and 2 in. Found Vol. 2 in the album racks, which was the progression of the songs from rough tracks to mixed versions, and just ordered Vol 1, the demos and rough recordings, from Amazon.

A pretty clean used copy of The Raspberries Fresh, from 1972. Features the single, I Wanna Be With You. My older brother had this when I was a kid, one of the first records I grew up listening to. Power pop doesn't get much better.

A two-line verse, and then straight to the hook.

Another really clean copy of Ricki Lee Jones album The Magazine. A year or so after I graduated, I was living up in Orono with some friends still in school, and The Real End from this record was in heavy rotation on the college station. Always reminds me of that time.

Yesterday was the one-year anniversary of Prince's death. In honor, here's his Super Bowl Halftime show.

I love that radio stations were playing his music on the hour every hour, in general. 89.3 was playing ALL his music, non-stop, some real deep tracks in there. If it was Prince, they were playing it.

I was raised on the oldies station, and I learned that J Edgar Hoover thought this was a Communist song.

On May 18, a deluxe edition for the soundtrack to the movie Singles will be released. I'm looking forward to it. This will be a two-disc version, and the live performances seen in the movie will be added to that disc along with a few more of the background songs not included in the original soundtrack.

Finally listened to the Mike Watt tour cd, that the Foos opened for. So worth buying. Amazing show. 1995, Chicago.

"Seasons" is arguably Chris Cornell's finest work, solo or with Soundgarden.

There's a hilarious Mudhoney song on there, too - "Overblown". Basically makes the whole thing a farce.

If you saw the grunge documentary Hype it's the perfect song.

I'm just glad those guys cashed their checks. Cobain was an self-absorbed fool(or maybe just a boring old junkie) for taking it seriously. Otherwise it was the Great Rock 'n' Roll Swindle and god bless everybody who played "this way to the egress."
