17. Firewater is always great (as was Tod A's previous band Cop Shoot Cop).
And if you like the Dirtbombs (and by God, why wouldn't you?), then check out Mick Collins' previous band The Gories!

4. Are you aware of music blogs?
A great source for out of print stuff. Reviews and download links - mostly vinyl rips.

7. How about some Serena Ryder?
Moderately famous in Canada, but IMHO she should be a superstar. Her voice is simply gorgeous.

Covering Leonard Cohen's "Sisters of Mercy" at the Montreal Jazz Festival: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XZ0-Vk4tl0I

Her video of "All for Love": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7hUENQs7y3c

13. I'm essentially blocked too
slow dial up :mad: (I heard it on the radio last night and looked up a you tube video to post - not even positive ti was the same song - I didn't wait for it to load)

if you can find a copy of the Osmonds, crazy horses, that is what it was.

but I wouldn't try too hard, if I were you.
