    Hey everybody,

    Next week we have a nice, varied selection of tracks coming out. Who do we have? How about the Allman Brothers Band? What about a Franz Ferdinand 3-pack? Or some Luscious Jackson, Alien Ant Farm . What if we followed that up with some, I don't know, Prong and The Distillers. Will that work for you? Works for me.

    Distillers - Drain the Blood
    Luscious Jackson - Naked Eye
    Prong - Idealistic Types
    Prong - The Banishment

    (All tracks are original master recordings)

    This week is all over the place, but there are a few tracks that I'm picking up, no questions asked.  I've been wanting Alien Ant Farm's Smooth Criminal for awhile, though I know it'll be really repetitive on guitar.  Take Me Out is a definite pickup, as are the Allman Brothers tracks.  I might get Naked Eye if the charts turn out well.  Never heard the others, so I'll have to see check the chart vids on youtube on Tuesday.

    Take Me Out, Blue Sky, Midnight Rider and Smooth Criminal for me definitely. The rest I'll decide by charts.

    Dude, once Do You Want To showed up in a Garnier Fructis hair ad, I knew it was all over.
