Zoot Sims |
|
In A Mellow Tone |

|
Jazz |
Duke suits Zoot fine on this workmanlike live swinger from the City of Brotherly Love.

Papa Was a Rollin' Stone |

Jambands |
Papa may have been a rollin’ stone, but he wouldn’t wanna lay his hat on this cover of the soul classic which, unfortunately, has zero soul.

Katharine Whalen |
|
Now Or Never |
MP3 |
|
Jazz |
This band of Zippers and other hipsters has the love, if not quite the chops, to tackle a straight-up standard and make it swing!
|
David Wilcox |
|
Start With the Ending (Live) |
WinMedia |
|
Pop |
Adult Contemporary stalwart Wilcox gets about as close to an edge as he's ever gonna get on this live version of "Start With The Ending."
|
The Misfits |
|
Scream! |
MP3 |
|
Punk |
Watered-down horror rock from a band who really should know better. With all of the old Misfits stuff available on CD, who needs this crap?
|
Beastie Boys |
|
So Whatcha Want (Soul Assassins Remix) |
MP3 |
|
Rap/Hip Hop |
The Beasties meet up with the Cypress crew, but Muggs takes this one on the laid back tip -- draining most of the juice out of a true Boys classic.
|
Red Rat |
|
Buss Up Pants Waist |
WinMedia |
|
Reggae |
Johnny Rotten gone dancehall? No, it's not that interesting, though Red Rat is just as abrasive…

Taos Hum |

The Pants Song |

|
Jambands |
Our Lord and Savior, Frank Zappa, is rolling over in his grave. Seriously.

Bleed Me |
PlayJ,WinMedia |
|
Metal |
These New Yawk speed metal vets get high marks for incendiary axework -- but most of “Bleed Me” could use a Band-Aid.
|
Alpha Blondy & the Solar System |
|
Guerre Civile |
PlayJ |
|
Reggae |
Blondy’s reggae warning of civil war is a little too civil -- it could have used a little grit (and some lyrics in Ingles!)
