Here’s four great reasons to have ears:
1. Young Jeezy-Trap of Die volume 2. The first Jeezy “Trap or Die” was probably one of the greatest mixtapes of all time. Cop the sequel here. Thanks to 2dopeboyz.
2. And while you’re listening to mixtapes, Nappy Roots are back. They’re an uneven group, but I bet there’s at least a few cool tunes on their new mixape titled, “Nappy University.” Get it here from mediafire.
3. Regular readers know I’m a huge fan of the Clash. Haven’t posted on them in a looooong time. Shame on me. But Cover Me is atoning for my sins, posting covers of every song on the brilliant London Calling album. Of course, none are as good as the originals, but that really isn’t the point, is it?
4. And on the completely opposite of the last post tip, Cover Lay Down offers folky covers of show tunes!
From the “Rock Against the Rich” tour, this August 11, 1988, show is pure brilliance. But you’d expect no less from the Greatest Rock Performer Who Ever Lived. Terrific quality, great set list. A must have.

I can’t believe how long it’s been since I posted a boot of the Greatest Band Of All Time: The Clash.
This is a great boot of the first time Mick Jones and Joe Strummer played together in 20 years, at ActonTown Hall on November 15, 2002. It’s Strummer and the Mescaleros until track 14, and then it’s Mick N’ Joe. Dig it.

The best collection of Clash demos and rarities, never released (and if they ain’t been now, I don’t see them coming out ever–Clash ain’t Tupac, after all).

If there’s interest, I’ll put up disc 2 later.
This will be up for a limited time–so get it now.
