HAPPY APRIL FOOL'S DAY
a few weeks back i had mentioned picking up this "cutout" tape at the mall to
play in the car...since the thread is still around, i give to you...
GODFATHERS OF GRUNGE (1994 risky business/sony music distribution)
the cover features someone i believe is ted nugent, playing on his back in
front of a wall of amps....now try to think of someone in a suit in a
corporate office making the selections for this absurd compilation...
SIDE ONE
godzilla BOC
d.o.a. (lp version) BLOODROCK
in-a-gadda-da-vida (45 edit) IRON BUTTERFLY
never in my life MOUNTAIN
black betty (lp version) RAM JAM
inside looking out (first live version) GRAND FUNK RAILROAD
SIDE TWO
the bomber (closet queen) JAMES GANG
slowride (lp version) FOGHAT
stranglehold TED NUGENT
roll on down the highway BTO
evil woman CROW (yeah, the one covered on the first uk sabbath lp)
long neck goose DETROIT
at first i thought maybe this was an excuse to lead off an lp w/"godzilla" so
as to tie in w/the movie, but it predates the movie....to me this collection
is too contemptible to even be considered a bad attempt at revisionist
history; it's merely...WACK.
but for 3 bucks it sounds okay in the car ^-~
