ventaIt's Friday! It's about three o'clock! It's time to Boogie At Your Desk!
Friday afternoons need a little something. I think they need a Top Tune. Something to make you shuffle in your seat and, if possible, Boogie At Your Desk.
I'm not claiming that any track provided to enable At-Desk Boogying is one of the world's best or most profound pieces of music. It will, however, be a tune which makes me smile, and which has at some stage made me surreptitiously Boogie At My Desk.
Desks are not compulsory, of course. Feel free to boogie through your office, in your bedroom, round your lab, across your classroom, on the train - wherever you find yourself on a Friday afternoon.
If you like the track, go out and buy the album it belongs to - I'll try and recommend a suitable CD to purchase for any BAYD track.
This link will expire at some point in the future.
Today you are invited to Boogie At Your Desk to:
The Gaslight Anthem - Great Expectations [link to mp3 expired]
I went to see The Gaslight Anthem in Kentish Town last night, and thought perhaps I ought to share them around a bit. There will, I hope, be a proper review along shortly but for now all you need to know is that they're guitar-driven American rock with riffs big enough to hang your hat[*] on.
I thoroughly recommend The '59 Sound as an addition to anyone's CD collection. It's got half a dozen splendidly singalong tracks, and some ballady bits in between. If you do eMusic, it's up there for download.
[*] Probably a Stetson.

As for radio, yeah, I shut it down a month or two ago now. People hadn't updated for a while and you're actually the first person to mention to me that they'd noticed it was gone :)
