Not bad, though the Year Future doesn't quite fit, moodwise. Fat Bottomed Girls is a terrific song, if only for the irony.
We've got a mini-run on Langhorne Slim. That's always nice to see. He's touring, btw. I'm seeing him May 1 at the tiny IOTA in Arlington, VA. Should be fun.
Yow,
Such lists!
I'm not as exotic as some but I love a deep groove.
Tom, when you hit Link Wray, I was done.
