An oldie but still full of life. Have a look at the haircuts… Jaysus but the eighties were shite.
The Clash – I Fought The Law
I don’t enjoy the conclusion contained in these lyrics. I like to think that the ‘Law’ loses every now and then.
Ozark Mountain Daredevils – If You Wanna Get To Heaven
The harmonica is smokin’ on this.
Carly Simon – Danny Boy
This has to be one of the most powerful renditions of the classic Irish ballad. This melody was taken from an old Gaelic air and had lyrics put to it by the English song-writer, Frederick Weatherly.
Faithless – Insomnia
Fleetwood Mac – The Chain
Fleetwood Mac even looked like a great rock band.
Damien Dempsey – Patience
No Doubt – Just A Girl
This one will blow the cobwebs from your head.
Steve Earl – Copperhead Road
Rebel Voice has always had a grá for this tune.
Creedance Clearwater Revival – Born On The Bayou
This video was made when there was some style to that artform. Sadly, today’s efforts are mostly shite.
