The Beach Boys - “Feel Flows”
Really, truly, the most beautiful & perfect Beach Boys song in the history of Beach Boys songs. Goosebumps start to finish. I listened to it probably 30 times yesterday & still it wasn’t enough.
Mountain - “Mississippi Queen”
Track 1 on my forthcoming Cowbell Classics comp. Perfect beer commercial music. But in a good way.
There are no words.
For THAT matter, the Futureheads cover is Epic.
The hounds of love are calling…
Since it’s Friday, you should watch this Inxs video & get incredibly amped. Honestly, is there a more criminally underrated 80s anthem than ‘New Sensation’? I don’t think so…
From the forthcoming compilation, “Mid-80s Supermarket Jamz”…
George Lewis from Twin Shadow stopped by the Vaya Bags store today! Hope you enjoy your new Recycled Bike tube Hip Pouch George!!
Awesome! Go, Tia!
Robert Palmer, the early years. So good.
August Mix, courtesy of 8tracks.
YES.
Point #2: Gayngs’ cover of Godley & Creme’s “Cry” does it justice through & through.
Point #1: “Cry” by Godley & Creme is one of the most emotionally powerful songs/low-budget videos ever.
