Music Thread: PARTY! And Some Unknowns...

A rare photograph of Garrett in his natural habitat...among effete euro-trash!

[That frog video behind the photo of Garrett is just so pompous and woke...]

***
This is Townsend's acoustic version of "Pinball Wizard," which he did at "The Secret Policeman's Ball," a fundraiser for Amnesty International. I overlook the cause because the music is great!

***
The Lumineers Flowers In Your Hair. Who? Never heard of them until...you know...I heard them!
***
Hank Williams Jambalaya (on the Bayou) is a lot better than The Carpenters' version, which is treacly and childish.
***
At the risk of tipping off my age, I remember this from high school. But that's not what is important...it's the hair and the mustache! Absolutely awesome.

***
The Derailers 100% Pure Fool
Another band I have never heard of, but who aren't bad!
***
Beastie Boys (You Gotta) Fight For Your Right (To Party)

This used to be ubiquitous, but luckily it was after my time, and even luckier, it has faded from our collective memory. I think it would be a lot better if it hadn't been played 8,000,000 times.
