CCR was great. They're not Southern rock, either, though. They're from Oakland, California! Okay, so maybe style is what counts, but I think of them more as Americana...like Violent Femmes or the Doobie Brothers, it was really a combination of American folk, country and rock.

American football songs never explicitly refer to football. I guess you could say they're more arena rock and classic rock than anything else. I hate them as much as anyone else. Some examples:
Zombie Nation - Kernkraft 400 Neil Diamond - Sweet Caroline Journey - Don't Stop Believing Bon Jovi - Livin on a Prayer Lynyrd Skynyrd - Sweet Home Alabama They suck, and yeah.

I love Mike Myers when he has to start talking again, and even when they cut to Chris Tucker, even Smokey is like, "damn your crazy" Awesome; But seriously give a Black Man a chance. He's so creative.

83 : VINYL There seems to be a new found love-fest for all things vinyl over the past couple of year. Count me out please. Frankly I was glad to see the back of it. When I first started working part time as a kid in the late 80s CD's cost double , sometimes almost triple what it cost to buy the same album on vinyl , so naturally with my minimal part time schoolboy wages buying CDs wasn't an option. I could have bought cassettes but they got lost & chewed up easily so vinyl I was forced with for a few years. They were big , bulky , impractical and sounded like shit after a few months of being exposed to a teenaged me. As far as I was concerned getting my first CD player (In 1991) couldn't come quick enough and when I did all my vinyl was quickly shut away in my parents shed where it remained for the next 16 years untouched before being thrown away. That's just how much I missed it. Music should be heard and quite honestly i'd take CDs or MP3s over vinyl anyday. I don't buy this argument that somehow buying a vinyl copy makes it more authentic. I want music in a format where I can listen to it with ease whenever I please , I don't buy it to make it look pretty sitting on a shelf. It's been said that vinyl has a superior sound quality than a CD. Well , I've been having my eardrums assaulted by Motorhead since the age of 5 , it makes absolutley no difference to me whatsoever. Vinyl - Nice to look at , but for me totally useless and outdated.

My vinyl collection pretty much only consists albums that were only released on vinyl. I'm thinking that makes it worse...
