Well, here's another ten.....I could probably go 100, but we'll take them ten at a time, that way I can do this another 15 years....Anyway, I've been going through my collection cleaning out some dead wood, and happened to run across a few pieces of greatness here and there, thought I'd share:1. Cornershop---When I Was Born for the 7th TimeWhat do you get when you combine Indian music (from India), funk, indie and dance/hiphop? You get a once in a career hit album, one which got Spin magazine's album of the year in 1997. Unfortunately, Cornershop (basically, Tjindar Singh and whoever he jams with) never put out anything as good as this before or after. From the two catchy songs that begin the album (Sleep on the Left Side and Brimful of Asha, a tribute to Indian film star Asha Bholse), the album takes a fun ride through many different music styles, including country, even remaking Norweigen Wood at one point. It's really hard to not be happy when you listen to this album, and you'll find yourself humming along to this lo-fi, hooky minor masterpiece.

And the last time that happened was at our last D&D session at your house. Hee hee hee, yeh I remembered that....So here is my "Anti-Mike" list of music I love to listen to:1. Alice Cooper - Hey Stoopid2. Bon Jovi - Slippery When Wet3. Damn Yankees - Don't Tread4. Def Leppard - Pyromania5. Europe - The Final Countdown6. Great White - Once Bitten....7. Loverboy - Big Ones8. Night Ranger - Dawn Patrol9. Poison - Open Up And Say Ahhh.....10. Ratt - Dancin' Undercover
