Friday and the Random 10 (Your Move Edition)

Welcome to a new and improved, simplified and stripped down Random 10! 

Here's a picture.

Great album by Tommy Shaw and Jack Blades.

Friday and the Random 10 (Super Bowl Warm-Up Edition)

Another week, another new format I am going to try. I will get it right eventually. In other news, the Super Bowl is Sunday between two #SEC quarterbacks. That's all you need to know. Prediction: $cam 20, Omaha 13. And then pitchers and catchers report... On with the music.

Friday and the Random 10 (I Got Wheels Edition)

Wow, my fortunes sure have changed in a week! Last week I detailed how my car just kind of overheated (i.e. went inferno) and left me stranded and in very difficult situation. Well thanks to Hertz (no really, they were great) and their rent-to-buy plan I am now driving a 2013 Nissan Versa. Only 240 more payments and that sucker is mine! Now all I need is some cruising music:

Friday and the Random Ten (Crazy on You Edition)

Last week I honored Yes's bass player who passed away by doing a Chris Squire edition of the Random Ten. This week things return to normal around here, and Yes gets placed on Exile Island (they were banned the week before). No word on the Tarkus yet...

Friday and the Random 10

Well once again it's Friday so you know what that means! Valentine's Day is finally over? No, not that. I'm gonna hit random on my entire music collection and list the first ten songs that pop up. I mean really, you should know how it works by now. If not, get with the program! Let's see what 1/2 price chocolate day has in store for me:

1) Foreigner/Night to Remember - actually I don't remember anything from last night. I don't even remember this song

2) Alabama/I Ain't Got No Business Doin' Business Today - Not my style. As the Cybermen say: Delete! Delete!.

3) Rush/Roll The Bones - finally a good song. It's a parallax you dig? Video winner because hey, a rapping skeleton.

4) Across the Universe soundtrack/Let It Be - great song from a good movie

5) Styx/Pieces of Eight - title track and album cover winner

6) Rush/Prime Mover - back when Rush did music I could actually listen to

7) Genesis/Second Home by the Sea - back when Genesis was tha bomb!

8) Asia/The Smile Has Left Your Eyes - cant let this album cover go unnoticed either

9) Shaw-Blades/For What It's Worth - Tommy Shaw of Styx and Jack Blades of Night Ranger were in Damn Yankees with Ted Nugent. Got that straight? Ok, well they did an album together of song that influenced them growing up with the clever title of Influences. It's a great album though.

10) AC/DC/Rock And Roll Aint Noise Pollution - no, no it's not

Well there ya go.That seems to be a good mix of 70's - 90's (with no RW again I might add!). The STCS for this week is Korn/Seen It All.

Play us out boys:

Friday and the Random 10

Yes, you've waited all week for it, and now its back! Take a look into my musical world as I set my media player on random and see what pops up. Enjoy!

1) Alabama/Pass It On Down - a southern country environmental song...ummm, k

2) Thomas Dolby/Quantum Mechanic - some spacey, electronic music...this guy was awesome during the 80's

3) Van Halen/Spanish Fly - a little acoustic piece by Eddie

4) Shaw-Blades/For What It's Worth - Tommy Shaw (Styx) and Jack Blades (Night Ranger) doing old stuff on their Influences CD....if you dont have it, get it NOW

5) Billy Joel/A Matter of Trust

6) Red Hot Chili Peppers/Catholic School Girls Rule - never heard this one, but its kinda funny

7) AC/DC/Deep in the Hole - these guys are sooo subtle with their titles sometimes

8) Foreigner/Out of the Blue - this sounds like it was during the pussification period when all 70's and 80's bands became wimpy love song acts...i'm still looking at you Journey...and Chicago...

9) Chicago/Nothin's Gonna Stop Us Now - wow, speak of the wimps devil...this album cover even sucked

10) Chicago/Better - again?...at least this one sounds jazzy

Well that was all a boatload full of suck. My apologies for subjecting you to all this garbage this week. Play us out Billy!
