Rolling Stones - Tops
So I just read that Mick Taylor's guitar is on two Rolling Stones tracks on their 1981 release Tattoo You: "Tops" and "Waiting on a Friend", both of which were originally recorded in 1972. Long after he left the band.

Don't need no casting couch to be a star in bed "

The Beautiful South - We Are Each Other
Another blast from the past post. And my second of the day because I woke up way too early this morning and now have a new song in my head and on repeat in my home.
A band called We Are Each Other is opening up for Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros tomorrow night. I don't know their music, but I immediately recalled this song of the same name, by The Beautiful South.

Sleepy Sun "Open Eyes"
Well it's been waaaaay too long since my last post and for that, I am truly sorry. In order to make it up to you, I have posted a song from a fantastic band called Sleepy Sun. The video is very well done and the song is outstanding. I hope you like it.
Teenage Fanclub - What You Do to Me
Saged just reminded me of this gem of a band. Not familiar with a lot of their music, but this album was on heavy rotation during high school, especially this song. Teenage love, angst. Teenage Fanclub.

Screaming Females - Bell
This is a friend's friend's band. This girl shreds so ridiculously hard it's not even funny. Hard enough that Guitar World did a feature on her and she's like 23. This song doesn't really show it off, but its a great live recording of them.
