Gome of the Week
Lon Mabon:

An easy target, I know, but I was voting today and I can't believe this guy is still on the ballot. And every time, he knows he's not even going to come close to winning. That takes guts.

The guts of a guy who's completely crazy.

 

 

 

 

 

This Week's Link That's Probably Not That Great
Lame List - When you're tired of reading our gome of the week column, shoot over here to see what's weak this week.

 

This Week's Movie You've Probably Never Seen
Tougher Than Leather (1988)

One love and RIP to the Jam Master.

And sure, you've seen Krush-Groove, but have you seen this bad boy? That's right, it's Tougher Than Leather, and that's Rev. Run holding a shotgun on the cover there. And it's a Run-DMC movie that's rated R.

So, needless to say, it's great. The Beastie Boys make a fairly awkward appearance while they're in their pre Paul's Boutique stage and so does Rick Rubin, who I think directed this bad boy.

They can't really act, but what the hell. Old school at it's best.

 

 

 

 

 

This Week's Record You're Probably Not Listening To
Run-DMC - Run-DMC (1982)

The original and still the best. Nothing but a drum machine and some 18 year old kids with hats and sideburns and no idea that they were going to change music forever.

I still listen to "Sucker M.C.'s" and "Hollis Crew" and will probably never get sick of them.

"I don't drink vodka/ keep a microphone inside my locker"

That's right.
