Bonnie Raitt - And Friends [DVD 5.1] (2005)

I paid nearly $7 for this gem at The Warehouse. It’s just outrageous! My “five bucks” catch phrase is getting harder and harder to substantiate these days.

Sparklehorse - Good Morning Spider (1998)

Some times it’s not fair being a bottom-shelfer! Some of my favourite albums are not always in easy reach and may at times get completely overlooked.

Hot Chip - Made In The Dark (2008)

Fuck it, I just needed something completely disposable tonight. A long day, a long drive and an absence of any musical intelligence.

Sugar - Copper Blue (1992)

Faultless post-Hüsker Dü record from their legendary front man. Despite a brain melting wall of guitars, it’s the hook of great melody amidst all of that power that prevails over everything else.

Led Zeppelin - The Song Remains The Same [Film] (1976)

I can’t remember if I biked over or caught the bus to my destination of Napier 15 miles away, but I do remember being there for the Saturday afternoon screening of “The Song Remains The Same” in ‘76 or ‘77.

Fleetwood Mac - Future Games (1971)

I’ve listened to Peter Green’s Fleetwood Mac, up to and including the excellent “Then Play On” and the megastar Linsey Buckingham-era Fleetwood Mac that peaked with “Rumours” and “Tusk”.

Band Of Horses - Everything All The Time (2006)

This very strong debut catapulted this band into indie superstardom and you can hear why. (actually, prior to putting it on I had forgotten it was their first record!

Jethro Tull - Living In The Past (1972)

More from those seminal years then. Thank god punk and new wave eventually came along to rescue one from the dinosaurs that prevailed but there really was no other period for rock like the early to mid 70s.
