The Ledge #644: Holiday Odds & Ends

Given that it's Thanksgiving weekend, I thought it was high time to have a show consisiting of nothing but tracks from albums that I've been playing around the house. Yeah, not exactly a novel idea, but it's a great soundtrack for a weekend of record shopping, partying, or even putting up the dreaded holiday decorations. (Ok, probably best for the partying category.)

Sure, it's nothing but old material but it's not the type of old material you normally hear. There's classic garage rock from 60s legends such as The Sonics and The Who. There's edgy singer/songwriter tunes from Jesse Malin and Graham Parker. There's a whole set devoted to highlights from the ill-fated Sex Pistols film, The Great Rock and Roll Swindle. Naturally, there's all kinds of material from the much-lauded "Hudson Basement Excavation Project".
