Hüsker Dü - “Don’t Want To Know If You Are Lonely”
#MinneapolisGreatestHits part II. If I actually pursued this (I won’t) what songs should be included besides the ones by 12 Rods, Atmosphere, Low, Lifter Puller, Babes In Toyland, The Jayhawks, Tapes ‘n Tapes, Semisonic, and Soul Asylum? Does Prince count? There was a Walt Mink track I used to really love, but since the great hard drive crash of ‘08 I’ve had to work with just my memory and it does not compare.
On a somewhat related note, I stopped following mp3 blogs between 2005 and 2008 and only follow a couple now. In 2006, Minneapolis based Music For Robots was one of the biggest and best around but now they barely update, anyone know what happened? On a related note to that related note, what happened to Lemon Red? I feel like maybe one to two people will know what I’m talking about.
need some ideas? how about the replacements, the suicide commandos, the suburbs, the cows, the andrews sisters, you could almost include a shellac song (todd trainer lives in minneapolis), get semisonic THE FUCK off that list and don’t even think about including marcy playground), the time, the jets, run westy run, rifle sport, halo of flies, dillenger four, and you could also almost include something by judy garland (cuz she was born in minnesota).
hope that helps!
