Pick Of The Week: Nude Beach



I want to thank Kevin M. for his very satisfying heads-up in the chatbox.  For those of you who have not yet had the chance to give Nude Beach a spin, now's the time.

From "77," give a listen to "I Can't Keep The Tears From Falling." And if ya dig it, I highly recommend the rest of the record, which sounds a bit like a young Tom Petty fronting Teenage Fanclub if TF had some balls.

Thanks Kevin, thanks Sal.

"Sounds a bit like a young Tom Petty fronting Teenage Fanclub if TF had some balls."

How can I resist such a description?

Awesome track. Really kickstarted the morning. I will need to check out the album.

Damn, that's pretty awesome! Even for a TF fan like me :)

Wonder if the rest of the album is any good? I'll have to check it out.

Speaking of compulsively propulsive songs like this, here is easily my favorite song of 2014: I've played it 900 times lately.

Take special note of that change about a minute in, to the bridge - amazing.

and here's a song some friends played at a party recently that was a major revelation to me. Again, much like the song you posted, and the Hamilton song above, it's so forward-movement-oriented I was completely mesmerized by it:

The Oh Sees
The Dream
