tracklist
| 1 | The Kinks : 20th Century Man |

1. Your Favorite Album Opener A great opening track. This album has been in pretty heavy rotation for me in the last few weeks. The Kinks Discover Americana! Typical very English Kinks Lyrics but with a more American sound. SHOW MORE

|
6. The Worst Song In The World Have you ever heard this album? Don't. I picked this track only as its the shortest on the perhaps worst album ever recorded. This is from a shitty shit of a record. Lou Reed said it best himself; "Well, anyone who gets to side four is dumber than I am." SHOW MORE

8. "If Snoop Dogg's 'Doggystyle' Came Out In 1944" This isnt the original; which came out in the forties i believe (but this is the only version i have) but its a good choice as I am not suggesting that Snoop is as talented as Armstrong, but he is certainly a cultural icon like louis SHOW MORE

Loaded is brilliant and I had the sickening feeling when you put it in that it was the song I wanted on my mix and I wouldn't find a remix as good. Nevermind. And the Kinks, and the Smiths. Fantastic.
