DO YOU REALLY NEED FOUR?


An old friend passed away this morning. There's too much to write about him to get started now. There are a few songs that I associate with him. "Wild Weekend" by the Rockin' Rebels is one, and "California Über Alles" by the Dead Kennedys is another. Pretty different songs, you'd probably agree. He was that type of guy. So here's the two of them. You'll have to go through a couple hoops to download "Wild Weekend," but, really, the payoff is the Dead Kennedys' stuff. There's a few different versions of "California Über Alles;" from an early demo, to the 45 version, LP version and a remix. Now before you start turning up your nose at the thought of a remix of that song, give it a listen. I'm always suspect of remixes of anything close to punk rock, but this one has some kind of punch. It would work well at your next eviction party.
