Jefferson Airplane -- Surrealistic Pillow

  There are some great moments on this LP, otherwise I can't stand their idealist flaky hippie bullsh*t!

The Surfsiders -- Sing The Beach Boys Song Book

  Other than the fact that this album features a pre-Velvets Lou Reed, this record is totally useless and a pathetic shamble of Beach Boys classics.  You'd swear these guys were given all the notes, brought in the studio, which probably was a bathroom, without any practice and just told to, "go!! you have twenty minutes!"

Motor Totemist Guild -- Contact With Veils

  I was spending the afternoon at my buddy's place, chewing the fat, smokin' doobs when I notice in his recently bought pile an album, with a big white sticker, DO NOT AIR CULT MUSIC ...it was like a soundtrack to a shittily insane performance art piece by some first year University intellectual rejects so annoyingly bad that we were tearing up with stoned laughter.  

AC/DC -- High Voltage

  I'm not a huge fan of the whole Heavy Metal genre or AC/DC in general, but there is a primitive instinctual  truth quality to this album and who doesn't love the original Glam Rock sleazebag booze pirate -- Bon Scott! 

Spoon -- Transference

  Stereotypically mediocre Indie Rock album by, a band I usually like, Spoon.  Luckily I saved my evening with Neil Young's Unplugged, which was great, proved that the man still had it!

R.L. Burnside -- My Black Name A-Ringin'

  Another almost undiscovered American blues legend, R.L. Burnside, and frighteningly, who knows how many of these characters are sprawled across US, who lived and died like folk hero's, never recorded.  Luckily, sometimes, someone out there has an opportunity to capture these unique talents, and My Black Name A-Ringin' is just one of those moments.

Jamming with Edward!

  What do you get when Keith Richards storms out of the Let It Bleed sessions protesting the producer's decision to hire extra guitar luminary Ry Cooder to beef up the numbers?  A poor man's Rolling Stones.  This record was never intended to be released, just a goof off session, a band killing time waiting for their lead guitarist to come back.
