Only three and a half days remain in a year that flew by, so this will obviously constitute the 52nd and final installment of the Friday Mix Tape for this revolution, the year of our lord two-thousand and seven. We’ve got a baker’s sixpack for this one, which starts off with my favorite track of the year: Frankie’s Gun by The Felice Brothers. If there’s one band to keep an eye on this year, mine eye shall be focused on them motherfuckers.
Six beauties accompany that one, and they’re listed here for your labeling pleasure:
Frankie’s Gun: The Felice Brothers — 11/18/07 — Worcester, MA
Also Sprach Zarathustra: The Popular Rock Band Phish — 11/19/97
Papa Don’t Take No Mess: James Brown — Papa Don’t Take No Mess
The Way It Is: Bruce Hornsby & the Noisemakers — Hornsby’s Xmas Download
1952 Vincent Black Lightning: Del McCoury Band — Del and the Boys
Armageddon It: Def Leppard — Hysteria
That’s What Love Will Make You Do: Gov’t Mule w/ Luther Dickinson — Bonnaroo 2007
