Tracks of the Week: Modern
The Modern Lovers "Roadrunner" - When I was commuting in Connecticut last year, I wore out this album. It's wonderful driving music. Produced by a member of the Velvet Underground, this album has their influence all over it, but a sunnier adaptation. Oh, and one of the members went on to be in The Talking Heads. Buy It.
Ray Charles "Bye Bye Love" - From his 1962 record Modern Sounds in Country and Western Music, this song isn't so much country-ish as it is big-bandy. Now that's a great sentence, ain't it? I really don't know much about Mr. Charles. I haven't even seen "Ray". Enjoy! Buy It.
