Friday and the Random 10 (Walk This Way Edition)

So last week I started messing with the format again and I think I am going to stick with it for awhile. I have also been singing Xanadu all week but that's neither here nor there. So below you will see only album covers from this week's Random 10.

As far as Exile Island goes, I am growing weary of it and am thinking of other options. But for now it remains intact. AC/DC escaped last week only to be replaced by ELO. I don't care. It was worth it.

As usual the rules and whatnot are up there ↑ next to the home tab.

Hey everybody it's music time!

1) Cherry Poppin' Daddies/Zoot Suit Riot (Zoot Suit Riot) - Who's your daddy? Yes I am!

2) Kansas/Play the Game Tonight (Vinyl Confessions) - 80's Kansas was a little different from the 70's version. I remember playing this song driving around in my 1981 Grand Prix with T-tops. Awesome.

3) The Doobie Brothers/Echoes of Love (Greatest Hits) - No idea about this song. It needs to go though. I am going to be less tolerant of what gets to stay in my inventory.

4) Camel/Please Come Home (Nude) - This album was about the Japanese soldier who refused to surrender after WWII. I recently saw his story on an island survival video. He finally came out of hiding in 1974.

5) Genesis/Land of Confusion (Invisible Touch) - Man, talk about the 80's! This is the song that had the video with all the character puppets including Reagan. Superman where are you now?

6) Thomas Dolby/I Love You Goodbye (Retrospectacle) - He also did some crazy stuff in the 80's but further developed his creative musical sounds. This song has an alligator creaking noise throughout it.

7) Aerosmith/Walk This Way (Greatest Hits) - Now that's what I'm talking about! Not that stupid Run DMC version either. All original baby!

8) Journey/Just the Same Way (Evolution) - Now this is the good Journey. Steve Perry had just joined the band and Greg Rolie still sang some of the tunes. No love song spiral of doom here...

9) Prince/Cream (Ultimate, Disc 2) - Get down with my bad self. Keeping it funky.

10) Casting Crowns/Prodigal (Lifesong) - Back to back weeks showing up after being absent for so long. Maybe there's some meaning in that for me.

The STCS for this week goes to The Beatles/When I'm Sixty-Four (Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band). Well that is the least rocking song I can think of from that album. Oh well. As far as everything else goes, there was no need to release the Kraken Tarkus this week so ELO gets to return to the land of the living next week. And Exile Island stays empty for meow...

As always stay warm/cool and comfy wherever you are. Go Braves and Roll Tide!

Play us out boys!
