Friday Music Special, June 12

"Vanished" - Crystal Castles
Though suffering from a ridiculously lame band name, they manage to make music that does not suck.

"Blue Skies" - Irving Berlin
Possibly the best recording of this song, ever. More than anything, this tune's presence on the FMS is a protest against the ridiculous antics of Mother Nature, over the past several days.

"Here's Looking At You Kid" - The Gaslight Anthem
I know, I know. Another Gaslight Anthem tune. Really, they're that good.

"Tripoli" - Pinback
A recommendation. Never heard of these guys before. Not sure I'll ever again, either. But this tune actually isn't so bad. Still - filler, not killer.

"Ode To Zach Braff" - SuperSecretProject
Outstanding.


................................................
"Sprach Zarathustra" - Richard Strauss
Yes. It's the theme from 2001: A Space Odyssey.
