Cliff Richard and The Shadows - The Young Ones

Look Back In Anger: Early Rock N' Roll British superstar, Cliff Richard was one of the guys who started it all. Adopting the American sound of the 50s and 60s, Richard and The Shadows were one of the first British artists to dominate the UK charts with a Rockabilly sound. Richard pre-dates the Beatles and Stones and was heralded as the British response to Elvis. He seems to barely hold a candle to Presley, though Richard had a far lengthier career than the King, transforming his sound through the 70s and 80s and becoming the 3rd largest selling artist in The Albion. Check this wonderful clip of Cliff in technicolor, from his early picture The Young Ones. You can also catch him this summer, opening for Morrissey at The Barclay's Center

Milk Music - I've Got a Wild Feeling.

Churn The Beatles "I've Got a Feeling" through a meat grinder and still it wouldn't sound much like this song. Milk Music, who's band name makes me want to vom (milk is gross, seriously.) channel 90s fuzz bands like Dinosaur Jr, Sonic Youth and little bit of Pavement. This jam is a totally crunchy nugget that makes you wanna dump a 24oz. Genesee all over your neck and smoke 3 Camel Crush's to the face. Its the sort of tune you hear blasting out of the jukebox at a smelly bar and you have to shout over it to be heard, and your friend is like, "Dude, who is this?" and your like "I dunno man, I think its a new Yuck song." and their like, "Oh yeah, sounds like it - wait, doesn't Deerhunter have a new album coming out?" "Yeah I think so." Yeah, its that sort of fucking song, dewd.
