Feh. Big Head Todd's cover of Zep's "Tangerine".  BHT, you're no Percy.

The preceding Freddy Jones Band tune was equally nice-but-not-memorable, imho.

Makes the Sunset District's most famous surfer sound pretty good by comparison.

I'd never realized she listened to 107.7 the Bone until now.

BOS2 Emmylou, "Wrecking Ball".  

"Put some reverb on it, it'll sound just like Daniel Lanois did it."

I'll give this Simple Minds tune another BOS, I always liked them & don't think I've heard this on the radio before.

another VHM to "Good"

from SNL that year, Norm MacDonald doing the news:  

Turning now to Entertainment News, topping the Pop Charts this week: "Good" by Better Than Ezra.  In at #2...Ezra.

VHM Better Than Ezra, def one I heard a lot of on the radio that year.

This has been rather impressive, for a '90s year.  BTW, I have 10:00 meetings today AND tomo'w -- I'm guessing Dave'll have a '70s year one day and a late '80s/early '90s set the other day.

Hands-down BOS to Better Than Ezra for this irresistible piece of guitar pop--I'd forgotten how much I dug this song back circa '95.

And BOS2 to the Jayhawks, Blue for which everything I said about the BTE song above goes double. I played the HELL out of both of these songs in '95. (And Proxy of Gaz for the Jayhawks too.)

This set has reminded me how remarkable a year 95 was for music, particularly in the middle of the 90s. Due in no small part (at least for me) to the genesis of the alt-country movement. Bands like the Jayhawks and Son Volt released works that would be their high-water marks, Steve Earle emerged from addiction (and jail) to release a stellar acoustic set, Richard Buckner also debuted with a really strong album, Wilco put out their somewhat disappointing freshman entry but redeemed themselves with a reputation for over-the-top live sets.

And on the mainstream side you had band like BTE and Bush putting out fairly strong rock that got chart attention too, and REM returned to action after several years off the road. I could probably come up with a few more, but I'll have to dig thru some CDs to be reminded what else I was listening to that year.

Then again, we also had Hootie that year. Win some, lose some more.

FWIW, I didn't think Counting Crows were all that far afield from what the y'allternative kids were doing.
