1. Ghosts Of Princes In Towers – Rich Kids – Only in 1978 UK, could the cruffy, poppy post-punk Rich Kids be considered a sell out. This is their greatest memoment, a flavorful burst of excitement and melody that charted well and though we were upset at the same, the keyboards on the middle 9 and the chanted, handclapped bridge, give it a contemporary feel even today – Grade: A
2. Come Rain Or Come Shine – Judy Garland – Judy's genius is at work here:she pours herself into this standard till it overflows – Grade: A
3. Hail Mary – 2Pac – As power as this remains, it also seems a hook upon a hook upon a hook – Grade: A
4. Daughter – Loudon Wainwright III – The very concept of boundaries shatters around the motherfuckingasshole – Grade: A-
5. The Bottle Let Me Down – Hank Williams III – Great twang by the scion to keep – Grade: B+
6. I Can See It In Your Face – Pretty Lights – Proof that simply giving away your music isn't enough – Grade: A
7. Change The Sheets – Kathleen Edwards – I agree, the arrangement is too fusy – Grade: B+
8. You Won't Reget It – Ceu – the sexist "it" of all time, the "t' seems to arrive from the back of her tongue with a flick. Grade: A
9. Most Likely You Go Your Way (And I Go Mine) – Bob Dylan – Over and above the brutal dismissal, the horns and harp intro, thrusts you halfway in before you know what's hit you – Grade: A+
