Patti Smith live at CBGB  

Patti Smith shuts down the legendary music venue on October 15, 2006. The club closes after an extended dispute between club owner Hilly Kristal and the Bowery Residents Committee, which tried to charge Kristal $19,000 in alleged back rent. A men's clothing store moves in and throws out practically everything associated with the former music club. Rock 'n roll never forgets. #pattismith #70srock #80srock #90srock #cbgb #rock #rockmusic #music…

Mission: to listen to full albums that old radio hits were on.

Another song that gets played a lot is "Entre Dos Tierras" by Héroes Del Silencio. It's the only Spanish rock song I know and I never explored more. So I picked up their whole album Senderos De Traición to look for an unknown gem.

The album opens with their hit song so the rest unfortunately never rises to that level again. I felt the vocals sounded samey (can't judge lyrics) and the guitars were mostly using that reverb.

#NowPlaying one more Static-X for today -- this is another single from their platinum 1999 album Wisconsin Death Trip, but I never heard this one on the radio. This is track two on the record right after "Push It", and I like this one even MORE than "Push It"-- it STILL gives me chills to this day, one of my favorite damn songs. The fucking RIFFS. And WHAT a video. You really get to see where that soundclip is from 😂

#NowPlaying The first Static-X song I heard, on the radio, in 1999, when I was 19 -- "Push It". The sound. It's unforgettable. Not even one of my top favorite songs of theirs, but still so damn badass. And then to see the video- this one's one of the greats. There's a reason 'Wisconsin Death Trip' went platinum.
