Gomek Covers Podcast Part 1 & 2

To quote Everlast, "just like the Prodigal Son I´ve returned!", with TWO brand new Gomek Podcasts... the first since October. No excuse except I´ve had too much fun audioblogging, but it was nice to get back in the recording booth and crank these out. My inspiration was Malia, who said she missed hearing my voice on the stereo.
I´ve also hopefully simplified the process of getting them... now you just have to click on the links below to get to the download screen. You can either listen online or download by choosing the "download original" option on the right. Grab them and... ENJOY!

Podcast 1- Mom's comments
1. The Clash- liked the song, didn't like their cover, "Oh, Yeah!"
2. Meanies- like the early bobble-head Brit 60's sound. Reminded me of that-- "the night they tore down the Pally" song.
3. Slater Kinney- a bit too weird for me- who was that horrible singer?
4.Spiderbait- left me...well, it didn't stand out.
5. Riptides- kudos for the Riptides on Venus. I liked their version better than the original! Want more ex. of their music!
6. Weezer- Billy Joel on speed. At least the lead singer could..sing!
7. Paul Weller? Cake?- singer went flat a few times- turned me off.
8. Last one was my favorite of them ALL-( along with Paul Kelly's) Was that by Bryan Ferry or Roxie Music? What a great dancing tune!
That's my critique for now! Will listen to Podcast 2 tomorrow.
Remember- the Amie Pashtal is the best. The Momster

Riptides = teh rock. Love these guys. Like Pat, need more.

Okay... John McCrea could be a poor man's Ozzy on this track. Band is tight, too. But Faith No More did a STELLAR cover of War Pigs on "The Real Thing", that I think outshines CAKE on this one. (my $0.02)
