Bob Marley "Sun is Shining" Remix by Funkstar Deluxe

Flashback Friday is baaaaaaaaaack!!!!!
This one hits close to home, I feel like I should gas up the car just in case we head up to New Hampshire for a after hours to the wee hours of the morning! Just a straight classic from back in the hay-day!

P.S. You know it's been a while when you don't even remember the real name to your special Friday rendition of older songs because I was waaaay off, but I'm sticking with the new name now because it comes off the tongue waaaaay smoother..............
Not to mention the word Flashback explains my past waaaaaay better anyhow :)

Timid Tiger "Hangin' In The Sun"

So if you've seen me lately then you can see how much time I've been "Hangin in the Sun" by the pure chocolate thunder that I'm bringing, even my irish friends are calling me OH, TANNY BOY!
This is a fresh track from a German band that's been around since 2002, the video was released over this summer after their album came out. Hope you like.

The Magician "Magic Tape 25"

The kiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiid is back!!!!!!!!!!
After an amazing summer and a liver that needs some rest I would like to announce the 25th Magic Tape!!!!!
Not gonna lie, at one point this summer I thought the ole Magician was done with making the magic tapes, but leave it to the Magic Man to have a couple tricks up his sleeve!
This particular post is dedicated to my favorite couple in this world, two people that can turn this mix on from the beginning and dance to the weeee hours of night at their favorite watering hole =Brando's: (the easiest place to crawl home from in their case).
So turn up the volume, take off the clothes, and bust a move chi-town.

Gentlemen Hall "Makes Me Feel Alive"

This is my favorite REAL Boston Band at the moment.
Gentlemen Hall have been grinding it out for the last couple years and it seemed that WFNX was going to take them under their wind and expose them to all of their listeners, but we know how that turned out and now FNX is no longer...............what a shame.
Anyhow, I believe that this band is going to be the next Foster the People type band that goes from a great local band to the next super band that is Global! They just need the exposure by touring around the country and playing their awesome live shows. How could you not like them, they're pretty much a boy band that can actually play great tunes. I give them one more album and BOOM instant rockstars.

Bombay Bicycle Club "Light Out, Words Gone" & "Shuffle"

This could be my favorite band of the summer because I cannot get enough of them!
 It took me forever to figure out which song to post so I figured I'd post my favorite two!

Capital Cities "Safe and Sound"

Here is a L.A. band that needs some East Coast love. I should've checked these guys out when a buddy of mine told me to when he saw them at South by Southwest crushing it, then he introduced me to their manager and still I slacked and forgot to give it a listen......
Well today I stumbled upon them while I was listening to a playlist on Spotify and holy shit they blew me away, makes me want to stop being such a slacker.
Capital Cities apparently met on craigslist and the rest is history, I guess craigslist isn't just for killers, yard sales, and searching for the opposite sex that isn't charging too many "rose petals". 
Once they hit the East coast these guys will blow up, mark my words. Enjoy :)
