More zShazams!

I wrote about my Shazams in January.  Here are a few more gems I've Shazammed since then. 

Public Enemy did a "Fight the Power 2020" remix?  With Nas and Black Thought?  How did I miss this?  "Fear of a Black Planet" still slaps in its entirety, and "Fight the Power" does so in particular.


Go vote!

"In Orbit" by Joy Lovejoy is just fun classic soul.


I feel like I should already know "Big White Cloud" by John Cale.  rootsy is shaking his head that I had to Shazam this.


I also feel like I should know "Revolution" by Heartless Bastards.  Whitney is shaking his head too.



Bill Landford And The Landfordaires don't look like I expected them to.  "Run On For A Long Time" has a very O Brother Where Art Thou vibe.


If they ever remade High Fidelity, "Light Yearly" by the Allah-Las would work its way onto the soundtrack.


I suspect rob is already familiar with Nikki Lane's "Jackpot."


rob should know about "Cat Squirrel" too.


I suspect Juan Carlos is already familiar with "Friendship (Is A Small Boat In A Storm)" by Chicano Batman.  


"The Grunt" by Eddie Kirk makes me want to dive into Fortune Records' entire catalog.


I was stunned to hear "Nightmares" by Dana Dane at 8:43 am on a Tuesday.  Word up doc, I'm the ultimate!

I encourage you to post your Shazams too.  Music!  Postcount!

God Bless People Like This

It's reasons like this that I love New York. Challenging authority? Check. Blatant disregard for one's own physical well-being? Check. Humor? Check. Repeated use of rhetorical questions and "Check" as an answer in consecutive posts by same contributor? Check.

Happy Friday folks.
