Diggit's Car Tunes

Been listening to some Adrian Belew lately. I saw the Bears this past week at Music Mill. It was great to see them again after several years. Adrian Belew and Rob Fetters are simply amazing together, not only as guitar wizards, but also as songwriters and vocalists. I don't have their new cd yet, Eureka!, but listening to The Bears and Car Caught Fire this week has been fun.

Mavis Staples - We'll Never Turn Back
Mose Allison - Sings
Reverend Charlie Jackson - God's Got It
The Dils - Class War (Not sure how I missed this for so long. Really good.)
The Go-Betweens - 16 Lovers Lane (see commentary for the Dils above???)
Los Super Seven - Canto
Small Faces - From the Beginning (All or Nothing enters my top 20 all-time songlist...for now. Also has Baby, Dont You Do It and Watcha Gonna Do About It)
Kaiser Chiefs - Yours Truly, Angry Mob (Luna had this cranked up one day while I was in there and couldn't help but buy it. I'm still listening...)
The Ponys - Lights Out
Low - Drums and Guns
Jesse Malin - Glitter in the Gutter
Dinosaur Jr - Beyond
Unknown Instructors - The Master's Voice (Imagine SST circa 1987. Got it? Ok, then you'll love this one. It sounds like a Sacharinne Trust lp to me. Complete with Pettibone cover. But get this line up: Mike Watt, George Hurley, Joe Baiza, David Thomas (Pere Ubu), and Dan Mcguire. Joseph Bennet would give this two thumbs up and a big smile.)
