Happy Birthday Sean!

Hello everyone, and welcome to another beautiful evening here on Looks Like Coffee, Tastes Like Juice. Before I go on with this post, I'd just like to say two things 1)I'm aware these posts have been getting shorter. As soon as all hectic events die down a bit (i.e My first gig, a talent show, actual homework, general laziness) the posts will be back to their original splendor and 2) This is going to be the last birthday post for a while. For now though, here is another incredibly short post.

Today is my best friend Sean's 15th birthday, so in honor of this very special day, here are a couple songs that Sean would actually like. As you may have gathered from the previous sentence, Sean is not a huge fan (he greatly dislikes) most of the music that I post on this blog. He is more of a classic/blues/hard rock fan, as opposed to ...well, anything else. So, in honor of all things Sean, here are tonight's tracks.

Black Dog - Led Zeppelin

When The Music's Over - The Doors

Train Kept Rolling - Aerosmith


Frankenstein - The Edgar Winter Group


Sean, sorry about the lack of White Stripes, all their albums are on the other computer.

Happy Birthday Sean!

Til' Tomorrow

P.S Tomorrow we will be featuring a special Mothers Day Mixtape post, so there's something to look forward to.

The ghost of 'lectricity howls in the bones of her face


Welcome, one and all to Looks Like Coffee, Tastes Like Juice's second ever 60's,70's,80's post. Today we'll be featuring two tracks from each of these three decades for your listening enjoyment. For extended listening enjoyment, check back to some of the previous posts because most of the MP3's have not expired yet. I'll just get right into it then ...

1960's

Care of Cell 44 - The Zombies (1968)

A fantastic song off one of my favorite records, Odessey And Oracle. It's a rather unique song written in the form of a letter that a man is sending to his girlfriend in prison, which is a very uncommon situation in today's society. By the way, for those of you who are a bit fanatical about spelling, the title of the record, Odessey And Oracle, which is misspelled, has always been thought to have been misspelled for a certain reason. It was later revealed that it was a simple spelling mistake on the bands part.

Bad Moon Rising - Creedence Clearwater Revival (1969)

This song was written after John Fogerty viewed the movie The Devil And Daniel Webster, in which a hurricane wipes out most of a town.

Four Sticks - Led Zeppelin (1971)

While not the best song on Zeppelin 4, this song showcases John Bonhams mastery of the drums. It's titled Four Sticks because of the way Mr.Bonham plays the song with four drum sticks. Need I say anymore? Just give it a listen and you'll know what I mean.

A Pillow Of Winds - Pink Floyd (1971)


If this song fails to make you tired, you are beyond insomnia.

The Cutter - Echo & The Bunnymen (1983)


Featuring signature Echo vocals and guitar, this song basically sounds like Echo & The Bunnymen, and not much else.

Visions Of Johanna - Bob Dylan (1966 rereleased in 1985 on the boxset Biograph)

My second favorite Dylan song (One upped only by Oxford Town) this song was definitely the highlight of Blonde on Blonde, coincidentally my favorite Dylan album as well. Here I present to you live version of unparalleled quality.

Enjoy
