Fire Town - Carry The Torch

Killer song from my college days. I was heavy into the REM sound and this fit the bill. Butch Vig, the drummer later became a huge producers as well as a member of Garbage.

Galaxie 500 - Blue Thunder

Perfect song for those melancholy moments. I remember buying this LP new and just being mesmerized by the sound. Never saw them live but I believe they would have been perfect on the My Blood Valentine, Buffalo Tom, Yo La Tengo show I went to. This group should be celebrated by the masses!

New Bomb Turks - Last Long Fight

I anticipate this blog being a slow work in process due to the time I have to spend.  I was never a huge fan of the New Bomb Turks but I have to say this song, the "B" side, is one of my absolute favorites. At one time, I use to buy everything on Sympathy for The Record Industry (SFTRI) and this was such a joy discovery.
