This Week Pick Ups (3-20-13)

Blind Faith - Blind Faith (1968)

Let me just explain who is on this album. I'm going to include the hyperlinks because people are stupid.
Exactly, so you Psychedelic Rock/Blues fans really need to check this one out.


Led Zeppelin - I through IV

Alright guys these 4 fucking albums...THESE...4...FUCKING...ALBUMS. Essential Heavy Rock/Blues Rock/Psychedelic Rock albums. And they really lead well into each other. Now they lose steam a bit. If you really only have to pick one of them to find/get make sure you pick up Led Zeppelin II.

Rick James - Street Songs (1981)

This album wasn't mind blowing. I picked it up because of the singles Give It To Me Baby and Super Freak. BUT I was surprised to find a few more good tracks on this album too. Like Ghetto Life and Mr. Policeman. And it's a Funk/R&B so it isn't too long. It's a nice album to just thrown on every one in a while.


Lil B - I'm Thraxx

His best work. Just saying


Squarepusher - Go Plastic (2001)

Another essential, but this time it's an experimental/IDM album. Great chaotic yet relaxing electronic album. When you pick this one up make sure you grab My Red Hot Car (Girl) I've loved this song for well over 10 years.
