If this doesn’t make you smile, either your name is Sting or you have a heart of stone. What a joy to see and hear!

Don’t know if I would go that far, but yeah, there are some really classic tunes by the Stranglers, for sure.
Taiwanese alternative. So very much better than their pop

Nice except for the suona. I get its significance in the song, but the sound is so annoying.

Yeah I think it is an acquired taste I like the drumming and her voice.

It’s not so often you hear a rock’n’roll album so white hot you gotta go, “Yeah, baby.” This is as primo essence de garage as MC5 and I wondered why these guys weren’t as legendary as punk-era Replacements. Then I discovered that they suffered from early Rolling Stones LP syndrome - 75% of the songs are Nuggets covers, but performed at stun volume with such gusto that they blow away all of the originals (and yes, I researched the sources - most of the 60s versions are pretty tame). They do include 3 or 4 originals to “pad out” the LP the way “Tell Me” “padded out” the first Stones LP. This one’s probably the best of the non-covers.

My grandpa died at 50 of Type-A diabetes. A tough old 20-year career Marine sergeant (he lied about his age at 17 to get out of sharecropping in 1930s Arkansas). I only knew him barely when I was 3. Stationed at Clark - I’ve been there and saluted his legacy (he was briefly in a John Wayne movie). My grandma was a spry old lady, a bit bohemian as all are from the weird Hot Springs waters, played tennis and the horse races well into her 70s, and she had a lot of boyfriends well into her senior citizen years. I grew up around a few of them.
