captains dead

great top of the evenin to y’all. here is a killer faces boot called killer highlights which is a collection of live tracks taken from ‘72-’73. i dont know what happened to track 4. i can only assume it was released on an actual faces release.

1. had me a real good time
2. maybe i’m amazed
3. love in vain
5. cut across shorty
6. bad n ruin
7. it’s all over now
8. memphis
9. if im on the late side
10. my fault
11. stealer
12. borstal boys
13. too bad
14. i’m losing you
15. jealous guy

oh yeah! happy st patty’s day to everyone. im sure its worse now, but we used to stand, typically frozen, outside of shitty chicago irish bars for hours just to take in the festivities. those festivities would pretty much amount to: lousy service, crappy beer, and being threatened to have ones teeth knocked out for accidentally bumping into a coked up trader. i miss my youth, sometimes, but i dont miss the douchebaggery that runs rampant around this day.

if i would have planned ahead i would have scheduled some kind of theme post for the day, but alas that aint my style. so, here is an oasis acoustic compilation. they’re almost irish. at least in terms of understandability. should be noted that a couple have tracks have been deleted due to the fact that they had been released on actual oasis approved releases.
