Thursday Random Eight (02/25/2010)

Billie Holiday - Them There Eyes: Good start to the morning.

The Boomtown Rats - Neon Heart: From the first album that, for years, was nearly impossible to find until its reissue on CD, this is a pretty strong track that would be an indicator of their punkish-sound for years to come.

Butthole Surfers - Comb: Noise and moaning excel in this crazy tune.

Paul Westerberg - What a Day (For a Night): A live track downloaded from his website, this isn't really Westerberg at his best.

Amon Tobin - Proper Hoodidge: A typically great, mood-filled track from Tobin.

Afghan Whigs - Moon River: Dulli lounge lizard at his covering best.

The Books - A Cold Freezin' Night: Another song from the samplin' goofs.

Genesis - In Limbo: From the completely cornball first album before most people want to admit there was a Genesis album...let's just say Trespass was the first album and this collection of hokey 60's sounding tunes were implanted under a Genesis header by sardonic time travelers.
