Rock

A Big Birthday for Louis Jordan Billy Eckstine.

Another fun record from Me First the Gimme Gimmes hit stores this week: Have Another Ball reveals the lighter side of these pop punks, as they take on the soft rock of the late 70s and early 80s…right down to the lovers-strolling-on-a-beach-at-sunset cover art. We heard Rich Girl this morning, and you’ll probably hear more from them on PWB in weeks to come. We also previewed the new Hold Steady record, in stores July 15th. That was just in the first hour—you might have still been asleep!
