NOFX -- White Trash, Two Heebs And A Bean

  Jesus man I used to worship this album when I was thirteen, now I'm not sure if I could listen to the whole thing without having to turn it off, but at the same time this was NOFX at the height of their creative career, the rest is just of the same ol' ...

M83 -- Saturdays = Youth

 An eclectic mix of Ambient Shoegazed Electronica.  Some of it I can handle and some of it is just too much, but all in all it's interestingly good.

Taj Mahal -- De Ole Folks At Home

  This is part of a double album, one is Giant Step, kinda run of the mill 60's electric Blues album, two De Ole Folks At Home is old timey Folk Blues, almost like the sounds of a poor man sitting on his broken porch living in the deep south, definitely a testament to the roots of American music.

Four Tops -- Greatest Hits

  One of the great Motown hit makers the Four Tops.  Each and every song on this Greatest Hits compilation should have already been embedded in all our minds, unless you were born on Mars.  These guys embody the pumpin' Soul Motown sound!

Interplay For 2 Trumpets And 2 Tenors

  Pretty much a standard Jazz record, no huge surprises, but still good.  The most interesting elements is hearing the "Interplay" between sax players John Coltrane and Bobby Jaspar.  Coltrane takes the lead with his wild improvisations while Jaspar tries to follow suit.  It's easy to tell the tenors apart, even though Jaspar's style and notes are perfect he lacks Coltrane's ferocious velocity.    

Mumford and Sons -- Babel

  This piece of sh*t band ruined what had started in the early 2000's, the any instrument goes, Indie Rock, known as New Weird America.  They took a killer movement and murdered it right in its tracks.  In spite of all their stupidity, beards and banjos, Indie music has taken another turn away from Folk and back to Rock 'n' Roll.

Wild Surf

  Man I can't believe this was a pawn shop special!  This Del-Fi Surf compilation contains some killer gems from classic and underrated bands during the early days of surf 60 to 64.
