The Stooges “Trollin’”
The Stooges “Trollin’ ” “My dick is turning into a tree!” Iggy Pop screams as Ron Asheton lays on the wah-wah pedal as if the last thirty-five years hadn’t happened.
[Listen]-[Review]

Jesse Malin “Prisoners of Paradise”
A banging adrenaline shot that’s one of the best Replacements rips of this decade.[Review]

Gary Allan “Smoke Rings in the Dark”
Gorgeous, slow-burning country ballad that recalls Roy Orbison at his early-1960s peak.
[Listen]-[Review]

Joss Stone “Headturner”
Sexy, Motown-esque pop that would have sounded just fine on Christina Aguilera’s last disc.
