“Crash Years” by The New Pornographers

Probably the best song in the New Poronographer’s catologue, and that is saying something. It encompasses everything that is great about the band: the quality of the songwriting, the musicianship and vocal performances and the way it all gels together.

“Surrender” by Cheap Trick

Cheap Trick Live at Budokan and Meatloaf’s Bat Out of Hell were probably the most important records of my childhood before I discovered the Beatles when I was ten.

“Sweet Head” by David Bowie

An outtake from Ziggy Stardust. A great song that may have been a little too risque at the time, even by early Bowie standards.
