Song of the Day

Pavement: The greatest rock band of the Nineties.

Summer Babe- Pavement In my humble opinion, Pavement was the greatest band of the Ninties (sorry bout that Nirvana fans). Summer Babe is a special song to me because it's the first song on the first album by Pavement and it was the first Pavement song I ever heard when they released Slanted and Enchanted in 1992. Pavement was the exactly perfect sound of the exactly perfect rock band in my head for so many years.

Pavement's track record beats that of any band of that era. 3 perfect albums and 2 near perfect albums between 1992 and 1999 and then bowing out at the peak of their power never to re-form, record or tour again.
