Khun Narin's Electric Phin Band - Sut Sanaen #2

Father John Misty - Heart Shaped Box

Wow. Nirvana cover

Everclear - Santa Monica

Nice acoustic sing-along to a song that will forever be immortalized by supplying an annual amount of amazing high school yearbook quotes

I know it’s fake. But let’s pretend.

Dandy Warhols - Hell’s Bells

The first track on the first AC/DC record after the passing of Bon Scott. The Dandys here turn it inside out.

Melissa Etheridge (w/ Bruce Springsteen) - Thunder Road

Melissa’s expressions during this song are priceless. As is the reaction to the “so Mary climb in” line at the end

Louis Prima - Mrs. Robinson

There was this thing that used to happen when one was little, maybe 7 or 8 years old, where you discovered your parents record collection.

This was the first LP I remember finding there. I stared at it for months - maybe years - before listening. The record cover intimidated me. Paul Simon seemed to be looking at or for something. Art Garfunkel was so pretty and almost spaced out. I sat with the LP on my lap staring at it for hours and days, because you could do that, before ever asking to listen to it.

Grateful Dead - Brokedown Palace

Long week behind me, longer one ahead.
