No, your speaker's not broken! Wicked feedback-fueled guitars carry this devilish, down-n-dirty stomper from classic rock's torchbearers. Gimme some chicken!

Junior's Farm |

Rock |
When Paul McCartney urges, "Let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go!" you better go, dammit! The "cute one" chronicles his post-Beatles catalog on this 2-CD set titled for his "other" band, and "Junior's Farm" is a homegrown keeper from Wingspan (Hits And History), an essential must-have for rock 'n' roll aficionados.

Rock |
The sedatives have subsided and the Junkies have more pep in their step than we’ve come to expect. Band’s rocking alter-ego kicks it up a notch here – and almost succeeds in silencing its mature evil twin. Almost…

Rock |
Hey, isn't that Jethro Tull sitting on a park bench with the Queens? No matter. These stoner rock dudes dig a deep groove with this "Parasol" and emerge with a monster of a modern rocker.

Band on the Run (Live) |

Rock |
Okay, you know what? Ween should just leave Wings well enough alone and go find some other sacred rock ‘n’ roll ground to desecrate. This thoroughly misguided attempt to remain true to the original goes sadly awry in light of Ween’s unfathomably infinite inferiority to McCartney & Co. Bleeeeeech.

These Eyes |

Rock |
A classic rock chestnut that helped usher in the era of arena rock ballads - now available for digital consumption in all its kitschy, guilty-pleasured glory. Light a candle – or lighter -- and set the mood for melancholy nostalgia.

No More Mr. Nice Guy |

Rock |
The time span between the quintessentially defiant chords that open this song and the bratty drum fill that closes it can only be classified as absolute audio ecstasy. This remastered slice of 1973 is pure heaven, whether you're dazed, confused, or just plain ready to rock.

Born To Run (Live) |

Rock |
A little slower than the album track, but these dudes are getting old so we can forgive 'em. This is still one of the finest slices of American Rock 'n' Roll that was ever written.

You Really Got Me |

|
Rock |
Live BBC recording of this quintessential love song (circa 1965) is played to perfection at the front lines of the British Invasion. Lo-fi garage-rock bliss makes the soul pine for a long-lost era when rock ‘n’ roll actually existed in real time.

Rock |
Trashy Southern rock from the Van Zant Brothers is a throwback to Skynyrd's heyday. Grab the whiskey and raise the flag (the Confederate one, that is). It's time to kick some Yankee ass!
