2. The Breakers -Don't Send Me No Flowers


Don't know anything about this band apart from they're from the 60s and that they play garage rock. This is a great song and one of their best known songs.

3. Kings Of Leon - Manhattan (Live)

New song from the Kings taken from a radio broadcast of their recent headlining slot at Glastonbury.

4. Southside Johnny & Little Steven - The Fever (Live)

This is taken from a radio show where these two as well as other musicians such as Soozie Tyrell and Bobby Bandiera played a whole bunch of covers (including 'Like A Virgin') and originals. Here's Southside singing the song with Springsteen.

5. Nils Lofgren - Long May You Run (Live)

Nils did a couple of songs on BBC Radio not too long ago and this is one of them. Apart from currently being on tour with Springsteen, Nils has a Neil Young covers album out at the moment which is well worth getting. Here's one of my favourite Nils songs

6. Mallory Graham - Queen Bee

I'll be honest, I know nothing about this song or the artist. I know it appeared on a Barbra Streisand album but that's about it. Great song though. Anybody with any info is welcome to let me know.

7. Albert Hammond Jr. - In My Room

New album from the Strokes guitarist is out now and this is off that album. Not going to win any awards for originality but he's excellent at what he does.
