No two bands are more concavely opposite in their genetic rock-n-roll make-up than Big Black and Supersuckers other than the fact that Steve Albini and Eddie Spaghetti have been prolific in their output and play music on a pretty consistent basis. In a drinking fight Supersuckers would win. In a cussing fight it might be a draw. Not sure about pool but it is a skill that does normally take place in bar, Albini might be a shark, regardless both much respected musicians at this here MP3 Music blog.

I’m a late comer to this lost mix sessions by Steve Albini of Cheap’s Tricks record called In Color which has been posted over on the Rock Town Hall blog in it’s entirety for download. I’ll also admit I had no clue that parts of Cheap Trick (Nielson & Carlos)were once hired as session players for John Lennon on the Double Fantasy album then probably fired by Yoko probably. Who knows. What I do know is that Albini respected Cheap Trick and covered them on a split touch & go 7″ I have with “He’s a Whore” b/w Krafwork’s “The Model”. A commercial ploy I think not but damn was it good crap to find and unearth.
Now my dear readers onto the original point of this post. The In Color mix by Albini rocks so hard it’s like a lost treasure in a sea of apathy. 15 Tracks that rock with grittyness it’s going to make you appreciate this band all over again. Dig it.
