Off Topic, Part Two

So I thought when I woke up this morning, "I'm gonna drop a High Fideliy reference on the blog today. That'll be cool."

But I was beaten to the punch.

Being late to a party never bothered me none, and being that I want to forget the Thrashers for a little while, we'll see if this game catches on. It's caled Top 5. Name your top 5 “track 1’s” - the first track of a record (cd for the youngins), record name and artist.
In no order…

Top 5 Track 1(/Side 1's)’s

1. “ELO Kiddies”, Cheap Trick (1977)
2. “Teenage FBI”, Do The Collapse , Guided by Voices (1999)
3. “Thunder Road”, Born to Run, Bruce Springsteen (1975)
4. “No Action", This Year's Model, Elvis Costello (1978)
5. “So What”, Kind of Blue, Miles Davis (1959)

Re: your choice of "So What" from Kind of Blue- (to quote someone) Dammit that's SO good, it should've been mine.

Fugazi, Nick Cave and a double dose of Rotten. Very nice. :)
