Team Norway

In honor of the fact that there are FIVE Norwegian teams competing in the Iditarod this year (including two-time champ Robert Sorlie, back for the first time in many years), please enjoy this slice of Norwegian Rock & Roll.

You're welcome.

Blast From the Aussie Past

Originally Le Hoodoo Gurus was three electric guitar players and a drummer.

One of the guitarists left (and took the "Le" with him) and they picked up a bass player. And a better drummer.

I loved these songs then.



Still love 'em now.

Happy Birthday Harry Georgeson

This sounds just as good now as it did 25 years ago.

What's It All About

A little ditty from Paul McCartney.

And maybe the band should all switch instruments just to make it more interesting.

Because it's just a B-side, so no one will pay attention.

Right?

That's a Good Line to Take it To the Bridge

Happy Valentines Day.

John Stays Silent For the Time Being

No one understands him but he always was the cryptic one

I watched part of the Beatles 50th Anniversary Ed Sullivan thing last night... and it was a mixture of insanely great and just puzzling.

Which seems like a great time to play this song by John Wesley Harding (in a slightly updated version):




And the original version for all you completists out there, the original version from 1990:

And the Rain Is Pouring Down

Seems like a good time for the late, great Stiv Bators.

Yup.



By the way, is it just me or does it seem like this song is constantly on the verge of tipping over sidewise and turning into "Eve of Destruction"?
