Today I was doing all kinds of fun things like sweeping the cobwebs out of the closet, helping my husband set a rat trap in the cellar and folding laundry. I needed some music to carry me through.
I looked at a stack of CD's I pulled out recently. Some are compliation CD's my husband made when he used to have a radio show at KBEACH.
So, what does the guy who used to own Zed Records save after 25+ years of supplying alternative and punk music to all of Southern California and parts of England? Here's a sample from a CD he titled "Punker Than Thou".
Most links go to iTunes.
Where possible I linked directly to the song but punk like this isn't always for sale on iTunes. Some things never change. But did you know that even if you are a dinky band with no money you can sell your stuff on CDBaby.net and they can get you on iTunes. Check it out. When I couldn't find the music on iTunes, I tried to put a link to YouTube or MySpace.
**Wasted and Nervous Breakdown by Black Flag
**Sid Vicious Was Innocent by Guttermouth
**I Wanna Call Someone by Pressure
**Powerfail and the Power of Dolemite by Agoraphobic Nosebleed
**Bob Dobbs by ??? We can't figure it out. Do you know of a song named Bob Dobbs by a punk band with a female singer? The single is here someplace.
**Fuck You That's Why by Smut Peddlers (What better reason could there be?)
**Heart Cooks Brain, Trailer Trash and Polar Opposites by Modest Mouse
**Unbelievable Things by Superchunk
**Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For by Negativland
**U2's lost song by Negativland. Click on the play button below to hear beloved American radio icon Casey Kasum lose his temper and curse like a truck driver. Just goes to show you, things aren't always what they appear to be ;)

**Copper by Shellac
**Lorna Doom and On a Rope by Rocket from the Crypt off their Live EP
**Kitchen Cantata by Pink Chunk (There were only 1,000 copies of this single made. It doesn't look like anyone on the internet has posted an Mp3 or images. Let's just say it's a "song" where some guy bangs on pots and pans while his dog whines in the background).
**It's Hard by Plummet Airlines
**Virginia Plain by Roxy Music. (My husband got a rare, unique copy of this on acetate for his brithday way back.)

Hey, someone’s been going through my CD’s!

For some reason I cannot understand either one of your responses insellamanS and optislila. I also have no idea what they have to do with this post. But, I guess it makes sense to you and probably someone else.
In football you wear a helmet; in baseball you wear a cap. Football is concerned with downs; baseball is concerned with ups. In football you receive a penalty; in baseball you make an error. In football the specialist comes in to kick; in baseball the specialist comes in to relieve somebody. (George Carlin)
