Medicine for Mondays: Small Faces

I know I usually post upbeat, rockin' tunes from some of my fave ladies on a Monday morning, but I love the Small Faces and was happy to come across this live footage from 1966. This song is my total jam.

“Photo of the Day”

This story is incredible. And this, the photographic evidence, is phenomenal.Wow!

Flashback Friday: Slow Children

I was just pleasantly reminded how much I adore Slow Children. One of my favorite weekly radio shows on WEVL played Spring In Fialta this morning during my commute and I nearly ran off the road in gleeful celebration (read: me dancing like a dork behind the steering wheel). Happy Friday!

I love all of these shots of Billie Holiday with her beloved boxer, Mister!

Tuesday Tunes: Yuck

Here's the latest little gem from UK band Yuck. I know, I've posted some of their stuff before. But their songs are feeling like summer to me right now and I'm fully embracing it. This particular video may be considered NSFW for some, but I just think it's art. I know it when I see it.

Medicine for Mondays: Little Eva

C'mon, baby! I'm trying to get loco-motivated this Monday morning. Ugh. How about you?

Flashback Friday: Bauhaus

Give me just a little rain and some black clouds overhead and I go right to what I like to call my "Winter place." There were big fat raindrops falling as I headed in to work this morning - I immediately turned the ol' iPod to Bauhaus. This first one's a classic, of course. And I adore their very punk cover of T. Rex's Telegram Sam. I told you I was (not-so-secretly) Goth.

How, exactly, does one approach Iggy Pop to do backing vocals?

Tuesday Tunes: Mean Jeans

I LOVE this band. Period.

Even More: The Flakes

I love this ol' gem from The Flakes! Great music from the Bay Area shot by Memphis filmmaker Mike McCarthy.

Flashback Friday: Flamin' Groovies

Here are a couple of great clips of one of my all-time faves - The Flamin' Groovies!

Tuesday Tunes: Charles Bradley

Here's some sweet soul music from the one and only Mr. Charles Bradley. You can find his recent releases at Daptone Records.

Medicine for Mondays: France Gall

Here's a swingin' tune for your Monday morning.

Girls with Records: That '70s Vibe

Flashback Friday: Pretenders

The Pretenders' first LP was one of the first albums I ever owned. I think these songs may well be engrained in my DNA by now. That whole record still makes me so happy. And Chrissie Hynde will forever be on my top ten list of girl crushes. She. Is. Awesome.

Baby Critters: Ahoy, Mateys!
