Big Audio Dynamite grew from the Clash, one of my all-time favorites. I was never a huge fan of B.A.D., but their music lurked in the background of '90s pop culture, and I always enjoy hearing them.

Songs in My Head
I haven't posted on here much lately; mainly posting to the Facebook page. We have a lot going on this year: Baby K is walking, talking a little, growing like crazy. We are sleep-deprived and busy. We have a few big trips coming up, a garden to tend, and heck, life in general is way more complicated (and less productive) when you have a kid.
It's been awhile since I put up a music post, so let's try to do a few. First up: J. Geils Band. The namesake of the band died recently, so there were tons of memorials, and I was reminded of how much I liked them as a kid. Yeah, a kid: they were big in the '70s and '80s. Great music, guitar-driven but also spiced up with harmonica.
Whammer Jammer- here's that harmonica, courtesy of "Magic Dick."
Musta Got Lost- this thing got so much airplay, and still does on classic rock stations. A decent song, with an outrageous intro.
Love Stinks- before I knew what love was, I knew it sucked sometimes, thanks to songs like this.
Freeze Frame- a later one, MTV-era.
Centerfold- my adolescent mind loved this, but picked up on the angst, too.
