Various : Instant Garage [Mojo Music Guide Vol.1]

Part One of Mojo magazine's 'Music Guide' was this brilliant compilation which contained 28 classic garage tracks, the majority of which were released between the mid 60's to the mid 70's. This album makes a brilliant addition to any music collection. The fact that it came free with a magazine (june 2003) makes it even more remarkable.

[Take 5] : The Ramones



Some of my posts earlier mentioned 53rd & 3rd Records. The label was originally named after a song by American band The Ramones who have often been regarded as the very first punk band. I had intended to include 53rd & 3rd plus 4 tracks from throughout the band's career but in the end I couldn't resist just using 5 tracks from the band's self titled debut. That's not to say their other albums aren't good. They are and I will post some other stuff another time. Meanwhile enjoy these 5 tracks from one of the best rock bands ever.

Trivia fact #1: The catalogue number of every record released on the 53rd & 3rd record label had the prefix AGARR, which stood for 'as good as (a) Ramones record' which every record released by the label (allegedly) aspired to be.

Trivia fact #2: The 5 Ramones songs above have all been covered by other artists, the first 4 by Red Hot Chilli Peppers, Rob Zombie, Metallica and Pete Yorn respectively. Track 5 fairs a lot better as it was covered by Sonic Youth.
