Tommy & The Ohs – “Living in the Swamp”

There is a lot to love about this Tommy and The Ohs track. It features gorgeous Jim McGuire photography for the cover art, it was recorded direct to 2" tape at RCA Studio C and, best of all, the songs are damn good.

You know what’s NOT great about it? A $9 pricetag for three digital files. I can forgive the $20 sticker price for a direct-to-acetate 7" – that’s a collector’s item – but I’m really shocked about the digital price. Maybe even offended? 

Despite that, it really is enjoyable to listen to.

What Up English – …Play The Hits

It may be a little early for a band like What Up English to be releasing a Best Of or Rarities compilation but they’re cleaning house in preparation for a bunch of new recordings coming soon, so why not? Also, it acts as a great sampler introduction to the band.

PETTY – Doug ft. The Beets Killer Tofu Tour `96

If I could pinpoint what it was that it’s so damn charming about this song, I would. But I can’t! I think it was the ridiculously perfect artist description that drew me in and then the song itself is obviously someone enjoying themselves, a quality often lost in hip-hop.
