My Top 5 The Clash Songs

I didn't know much about The Clash when they first came out. When my music tastes started changing towards alternative music in the early 80's I first noticed them. Their last "real" album was a huge MTV hit. I then went back like many Americans and listened to their earlier albums They were way ahead of their time and only released 6 albums.

My Top 5 Cheap Trick Songs

 Today is Robin Zander's 60th birthday. Cheap Trick has always been one of my favorite bands. I put them in the Hall and Oates category in that they had a lot of success but not ever put in the all time greats category by the "experts". In the grand scheme of things, I don't care. Music has never been about what is cool, just what I like. Cheap Trick was an odd success story in that they released a bunch of stuff that failed to chart. They ultimately hit it big with a live version of a previously released song. Their initial success was in Japan. Once that song hit it big, many of their previous songs became "known".
