Gimme some lovin!
The Spencer Davis Group was one of the British beat groups credited with the British Invasion movement (Along with the Beatles, The Who, and so many other great bands to come out in the 60's). The band was made up of Spencer Davis on guitar, Steve Winwood on vocals, Muff Winwood on bass, and Pete York on drums. Steve Winwood the most popular memeber of the group went on to do a lot of things. He was a member of Traffic and also of Blindfaith where he sang alongside Cream members Eric Clapton on the guitar and Ginger Baker, on the drums. Now that's a great line-up!

ventures
So, when I first got into collecting records I did not really know anything about The Ventures. I kind of knew they were a surf rock band, but what really caught my eye was the album cover (and of course the music is timeless). So, with that being said i give you WILD THINGS!!!!

Punk Rock Mondays
Today its all about the "godfathers" of punk rock, The Ramones!!! This is the record that started it all! If it wasn't for The Ramones, then there wouldn't even be the genre of punk rock. They didn't only create the genre they defined the genre.
As a kid, when I found out about punk music, it was just like finding out about skateboarding. It was a part of me, a part of who I am. I will always be a punk rocker.
"It's what's in our blood, it flows through our veins, so save your breath 'coz we're here to stay!!"
