Last night I watched the library of Congress celebrates Paul Simon special on PBS. He didn’t play this song and I always wonder why no one likes it as much as I do…

weird.

paul simon – peace like a river

So yeah I have been redoing my itunes and music collection for the last week or two and I keep coming across old shit I dig. Anyway, featuring Rick from Jehu, Hot Snakes and the Obits, Pitchfork was around before the site and just did things well. Check out this lil rock n roll classic below:P

Pitchfork – Burn Pigs Burn

so a quick story..

walking around the subway today, Sharks and Sailors came on my greatest hits playlist on my IPOD ™ and I thought to myself, like I do a bit, about how I want to post this song cause I fucking love it.

However, when I get home I type this sentence…”A band that is so underrated and rarely talked about….” and before I finish it, I figured I would quickly do a search for June Of 44 on Hype Machine to see how often the blogs talk about them. (the search is HERE.)

There are 8 different posts about June of 44. Five of them are me. Including a posting called The RANDOMNESS- June of 44 with the song Sharks and Sailors on it. (oops, I guess great ideas are quite often thought twice..) (find that HERE.)

Anyway, the cool thing I did find, was a live show from 95 HERE. Go Captain’s Dead!!!

Also, the song isn’t posted anymore, so you might as well enjoy it below.. it’s a dynamic song with great drums..
