My Top 5 CD's for this week.
Week three November 18, 2005


1) U2 – All that you can't leave behind
This weather that we’ve been having reminds me of U2 for some reason. ‘dry yet comfortable-blowing wind’. I love the feeling in the air around this time of year.
U2 isn’t one of my ultra favorite bands ever but I dig this album at certain times.

2) Detroit Cobras – Baby
Rachel is a doll.
The Detroit Cobras are a really fun band to see live. This CD was produced by none other then Mr. Greg Cartwright (Reigning Sound). With songs like ‘ I wanna holler (but the towns to small)’ and ‘ cha cha twist’, you just can’t go wrong.

3) Shout out louds – Howl Howl, Gaff Gaff
I was recently turned onto this band by a friend and haven’t taken it out of my CD changer since. I listen to it all the time. Granted their sound isn’t really new per say but who is these day’s. I’ve pretty much given up in finding a new sound that has never been heard before. It’s ALL been done. And that’s okay. I like the old music. SOL sounds like Grandaddy with a touch of The Thrills and Rooney. So If you like any of these bands than you’re bound to love SOL. They have catchy songs.

4) Geraldine Fibbers – Butch
This is a really good CD to listen to if you got your jeep stolen. It’s aggressive and calm at the same time, but mostly aggressive. Her voice is beautiful and covers the fact that the words are fast, angry and aggressive. One of my favorite songs is “Seven or in 10” and “Toybox”.

5) Flamin’ Groovies – Absolutely the Best
This just rocks in a 60’s groovy sort of way. I can just picture the cool 60’s shuffle dancing as I’m listening to this. …….. the best things in life are free – but you can give them to the birds and bees!
